<p>As an avid user of stackoverflow.com and other children in the Stack Exchange family, I'm a little confused why this site seems to work differently (and not even in a consistent way!).</p> <p>Why can I vote on answers for some questions but not others? Why is there no button to 'ask a question', but there is one to 'submit [a] feature request'? [Am I submitting a feature request now?]</p>

http://fogbugz.stackexchange.com/questions/8953/why-submit-feature-requests Ken Morse 2011-08-06T13:22:55Z 2011-08-09T15:06:03Z

<p>The "Ask Question" button was recently renamed "Submit Feature Requests". Is it really your intent to suggest that this site now only be used for feature requests, or are you just trying to make sure that people who need an urgent response contact you in some more direct way?</p> <p>This site has a lot of useful information in addition to feature requests and it would be unfortunate if people (especially new users to the site) didn't post interesting questions because the button made them think it wasn't appropriate.</p> <p>I suggest you consider going back to calling the button something like "Ask a Question".</p>

<p>I'm looking at the new site design and am feeling a bit claustrophobic. I've got 1920 pixels of horizontal resolution here and you're only using about 700 of them.</p> <p>What's up with that?</p>

<p>After a question on either the FogBugz or Kiln stackexchange sites has no activity for a while, the Community user brings that case back up to the top of the list. I have no problem with this behavior in general, but there are currently at least 15 questions get moved up this way every day en-mass and this is starting to obscure the new questions just being asked.</p> <p>Part of the problem is that the question askers are not selecting the "correct" answer because on almost all of the questions, there are one or two good answers to the question. However, a number of the questions that keep floating around are feature request "questions", and in for these, it seems a bit strange to mark the "we've opened a feature request, up-vote this question to support it" answer as being correct because the "question" isn't really a question in the first place, so how does one mark a correct answer to a non-question? </p> <p>Examples of users un-likely to come back to accept an answer:<br> 1. <a href="http://fogbugz.stackexchange.com/questions/4970/is-there-any-way-to-subscribe-someone-to-changes-in-a-bug" rel="nofollow">This one</a><br> 2. <a href="http://fogbugz.stackexchange.com/questions/5189/separate-priorities-labels-for-scheduled-items-vs-bugs" rel="nofollow">This one</a><br> 3. <a href="http://fogbugz.stackexchange.com/questions/4957/can-plugins-be-implemented-on-a-hosted-solution" rel="nofollow">This one</a></p> <p>Examples of open case questions (feature requests and bugs)<br> 1. <a href="http://fogbugz.stackexchange.com/questions/3884/get-the-number-of-cases-in-a-search-without-returning-all-cases-through-api" rel="nofollow">This one</a><br> 2. <a href="http://fogbugz.stackexchange.com/questions/5776/the-working-on-dialog-nags-me-to-save-changes-when-i-havent-made-any" rel="nofollow">This one</a><br> 3. <a href="http://fogbugz.stackexchange.com/questions/5207/feature-request-allow-non-administrator-accounts-to-share-filters" rel="nofollow">This one</a><br> 4. <a href="http://fogbugz.stackexchange.com/questions/5274/how-can-i-get-secure-ldap-authentication-working-with-openldap" rel="nofollow">This one</a></p> <blockquote> <p><img src="http://www.gravatar.com/avatar/baf927dcc0b0c5d0f41dece1e575aa0f?s=32&amp;d=identicon&amp;r=PG" alt="Fog Creek"> <a href="http://fogbugz.stackexchange.com/questions/1023/whats-that-kiwi-logo-and-case-number-at-the-bottom-of-my-feature-request" rel="nofollow">Case FC1975657</a></p> </blockquote>

<p>Since this site is being used to vote on feature requests, it would be nice if paying customers had a way to vote things up/down without having to build rep. Perhaps customers should have a way to associate their fogbugz.stackexchange.com account with their license or on-demand account and get an automatic rep boost of a few hundred points.</p> <p>Alternatively, change the point model for this site to give asking good questions priority over answers, since most answers are provided by FC staff.</p> <blockquote> <p><img src="http://www.gravatar.com/avatar/baf927dcc0b0c5d0f41dece1e575aa0f?s=32&amp;d=identicon&amp;r=PG" alt="Fog Creek"> <a href="http://fogbugz.stackexchange.com/questions/1023/whats-that-kiwi-logo-and-case-number-at-the-bottom-of-my-feature-request" rel="nofollow">Case FC2038160</a></p> </blockquote>

<p>The new fogbugz.stackexchange.com site design removed the Unanswered and Most Votes question lists. Particularly the Most Votes list is useful since people are using this site to vote on feature requests.</p> <p>Even more useful would be a specific list of feature requests that are being considered (status-evaluate, status-filed, or whichever tags are most appropriate).</p>

<p>In earlier versions of FogBugz there was proper documentation. Now you click help and you get this stack exchange thing.</p> <p>I want a .chm or a website with a decent narrative.</p> <p>I don't think many trial users will be impressed. </p> <p>Where is the proper documentation?</p>

<p>So why so many choices? And what's the difference between all these choices of support? Which is better or more helpful? Which is preferred by Fog Creek or preferred by customers? Are there pros and cons to each choice?</p>

<p><img src="http://imgur.com/k48ar.png" alt="alt text"></p> <p>Don't get me wrong, the <em>FogBugz Knowledge Exchange</em> has a ton of good information and is extremely useful, in addition to having all the benefits of voting, comments, etc. Not all information needs to take a Q &amp; A form though and the more structured, ordered information provided in the "built-in" FogBugz help (Help->FogBugz Help) was also useful in its own way, especially for someone just spinning up on the product.</p> <p>It looks like FogBugz 8 is going to do away with the built-in help and <a href="http://fogbugz.stackexchange.com/documentation" rel="nofollow">go completely with the Knowledge Exchange Q &amp; A format</a>.

<p>Hello.</p> <p>Our on-demand account was upgraded to FB 8.0. Firts of all that's great! :) Now I don't see a help page like it was in previous versions. Does this mean that now if I want to find something in FB help I have to search for an answer (giving a specific search request) on this site? Or are you (Fogcreek) planning to make a help page for FB 8.0 a little later?</p> <p>I am asking this because we make use of XML API and now I don't see a help page for that.</p> <p>Thanks!</p>

<p>I know this is a "meta" type suggestion, but because questions on this site can be answered by users before FogCreek employees, my suggestion is...</p> <p>...If a user answers a question and a FogCreek employee votes up that answer, then give a special indication.
