As all can see, the suggestion forum is almost only accessed by very few users, and mainly users that had joined the game at the first seasons.

I suggest to present during half-time, for the online users (that their team is on the court) all the suggestions (brought from previous game), and let them vote and see current voting status for each suggestion.

This will make the half-time period a little more interesting.
It will get users more involve with the suggestion forum.
and
It will give a real indication (and not biased like it is now) on what the users' community think about each suggestion - giving the BB-masters a better feel for each suggestion.

Oh, a very numerous time, you said it was'nt up to the people to decide, but to the BBs and now you propose that ?

Forums ARE (and present in the tutorial) accessible for everyone. If they have something to say, they can do it. I think.
The BB-masters are those who will decide, but why not "give the voice to the people"?
There is a huge diffenrece between giving option for ALL users to speak their opinion (which this suggestion is welcoming) and between trying to impose a single user prefererable opinion (which you are right - regarding that I am against).

I would say that I don't understand why you are against this suggestion, as it does not affect anything on this game. But I guess we both know better.

its not bad idea, but in reality, the suggestions are implemented by BB when and how they see fit.

I dont think the voice of the people really matters here on the forum.

If BB see a good idea, and they like it, they will implement it if they can.

Instead of voting, maybe you could just advertise some of the suggestions at half time? It would give more exposure to this suggestions forum and would hopefully get more people involved in debating/discussion idea's.

Good base idea though - gives some interest to half time, and something practical.

First, it surely will not do any harm.

In addition, I believe that the BB-masters may take their decisions based on the community (not just a small group of GMs) feel about a suggestion.
It most definitely will not be the only criteria, but it may give them idea whether to examine one suggestion or not.

I really don't see any good explanation why not implementing this small feature.
It is like creating a debug-test code to examine your work, which mean that it is pretty much essential.

So you want to change a simple viewer-flash-tool into something interactive to do what - gain completely meaningless data?

Why are you so afraid that the voice of the community will be heard?
What is your motive here?

This page is interactive - you can select to see your players box-score (or your opponent).
So, this argument is also void.

That´s not interactivity. That´s still a viewer content. Which page you´re looking at in a viewer is not changing anything in the data. Submitting anything to a poll IS interactive and a different approach.

If they should put hands on the viewer, which for heavens sake I hope they won´t until other issues are resolved, let it be for something more important than useless polls about meaningless issues without any impact on the decision making process.

The voice of the community will be heard by adding polls? If they are so interested in voicing it, who stops them from doing it here? We even can´t stop you, so I guess nobody is afraid of aynthing.
