Need a little help - Site Survey Request

[Ian]

You've probably noticed over the last year the whole look/feel of the site has changed quite a bit to try and make this place better, as well as a lot of the effort we made content-wise during the season. We know there are always things we know we can do better, and that's all we try to do every week. That's what we always try to do

Anyway, after last week's loss I've already gotten into 2014 mode and as I mentioned the other day a lot of additional work is going to be put into the site over the next few months. I've already started a lot of it, including a mobile version of the main site that has started to roll out, although not every section is done yet but that will come soon.

There's also more coming, along with a new way to keep track of individual player news, stats, an updated version of our Rumor Mill and Free Agent Tracker, and some other cool things that hopefully will be up and running in time for next season.

However, in order to make sure I hit everything people would like to see improved, if you guys can take some time to fill out this anonymous survey with some feedback, I'd appreciate it:

I'd like to put out the observation that this site looks a HELL OF A LOT better when we are winning.. and still playing games.

Just sayin..

LOL, I completely agree

Some additional good responses, I appreciate it. Please keep responding to this, it's going to make a big difference in the months to come and a bunch of you have already come up with some terrific suggestions. Can't express enough the difference it makes by filling me in on this stuff, so please - if you haven't taken the time yet be sure and fill it out

The survey has some questions that require you to read the site's original content so I couldn't finish it.

This isn't a criticism of the site's original content I just have never read it so I don't have a favorite or a least favorite.

Questions 2 & 3 should have had an option, "do not read this content".

I did the survey like 25 times – stuffing the ballots. Joking…

I think the site looks great, I am a big fan of the addition of Miguel as a writer since very few of us are experts on the cap it is very educational and helpful. The one thing I think we could use is a draft guru that writes a blog or something about prospects that fit the Patriots etc. I don’t know how writers are determined but I think Manx would be a great fit for as a draft guru,

Good point. I just added that option, so go ahead when you get a minute and thanks for pointing that out

I like the cosmetic changes to the board. The problem is the posters who flame each other. If we report them for fighting, the thread gets locked. The thread wasn't the problem. The people with the personality disorders were the problem. Setting the ignore feature needs to be exposed at a much higher level. It's too cumbersome to navigate and manage that list.

Another bump. Thanks for all the feedback thus far.

If you haven't taken it yet please do so, and also feel free to voice any additional concerns, opinions, gripes, etc. in there too. I'm going to be using all the feedback in the work I'll be doing in the months ahead, so it's all welcomed believe me. A lot of the complaints were great and gave me some ideas to hopefully alleviate some of it, so keep it coming

Maybe I' don't know where to look.....but is their a link to get to Miguel's site? And how does one navigate back to the home page from the message board?
Thanks

Miguel's page & blog will be on the navbar once I finish coding it in with his recent entries, etc. Should be done in a few days. His articles will also appear on the upper right under the "Current Stories" block.

As for the "Home Page" do you mean the front page of the board or PatsFans.com?
