Replying to: marsha7 (Mar 09, 2008 2:55 pm) We are seeing a specific crash wiping out a server every so often and it piles the request onto the other machines. We have the fix in the lab and beating it up relentlessly so that we can get it out and improve the page load time. |

A few new items today... 1. ---------------------------------------------MORE SPACE-------------------------------------------- 2. Forum Preferences (for members only) up in the right corner of the page under Forum Tools ... scroll down to uncheck the box Display "Social Bookmark Links:" to hide the lucky charm icons, etc. 3. Look right "Ask the Community" shows recent questions related to the discussion you are in that are awaiting answers over in Edmunds' Answers Enjoy!

Replying to: kplacer (Mar 13, 2008 2:25 pm) Social bookmark - see the little icons under my post? They allow you to save the URL to the post on other sites where you may keep a collection of favorite/helpful URLs to share with others.

Replying to: Sylvia (Mar 13, 2008 12:46 pm) 3. Look right "Ask the Community" shows recent questions related to the discussion you are in that are awaiting answers over in Edmunds' Answers Ewww, somehow I knew that was going to happen, because it's not a natural landing point for your long-time contributors, and why should they go there?.  I really feel this method is inconsistent with the rest of the site and what people like myself value. You should be encouraging people to subscribe to the proper forums / threads / tracks / communities / what have you and stay, not gun and run. BTW, there's not enough of the link title shown to encourage me to bite.  Just one user's opinion.

Replying to: user777 (Mar 14, 2008 7:56 pm) That's what I thought at first but it really does serve a purpose for those who don't like wading through forums, categories, etc. looking for the right place to post (we've all seen new folks get chastised for posting in the wrong place). I don't think it was designed for the regulars here because they know where to ask. However, it is a great place for regulars to help answer questions. I've also found myself providing a forum link on occasion if I think there would be lots of info about a subject.... like when someone asks a question about getting a certain deal on the sale or lease of a car. (The Prices Paid Forums are best for those.) IMHO, it is a great addition to the community pages.
