Why don’t you do what most other sited do? Which is what I think @pfaffman is saying?
As an aside, I had a look at your forum after following the links through your blog from your user card because I’m always interested in anyone from the Antipodes.
I honestly don’t understand why you’d put “questions and suggestions” together because the drivers seems to be so different. Is this the category that is used if you need help with a problem or bug in the software?
- My questions are based on my needs, want answers, are often bug-related, generally have some time urgency, and can be closed when they are answered/solved.
- My suggestions are far more about discussion, can have slow but thoughtful responses, and often lead to topics in a potential new life as features.
