Please provide your feedback on boddunan.com new look

I like the new version but even the old one was not bad. However, if we get new features maybe the site would do even better.

Searching articles using the user name option is not working. Every time I use this option, I get the message that no articles found.

never ending ...

Some of the liked posts seem to be more than 4 months old. Now that is some dedication. A true inspiration for all members.

We will monitor and take necessary action on any system misusages. Just an fyi.. points for liking a reply is discontinued.

However I request everyone to stick on to this topic only.

Sure , that s another kind of self dedication that will now hopeful end since points for likes has been discontinued..

It certainly looks fresh and makes a very soothing impact. Congrats and Best of luck to all of us! 

Nothing else has happened since the time this thread was posted ,, waiting to see some more measures here ..

Now that the points are not awarded for liking a post, a member has resorted to thanking others for almost all the post. Personally I feel that thanking or liking a post is something that we do as it please us. Why should points be awarded for thanking?? Could I suggest the administrator to also do away with the system of awarding points for thanking?

Thanking the members is better than clicking like.

If a member is thanked both the members will get points. Where as it is not so if the member clicks on Like

I would second that because it has given rise to scam ...instead if some points are awarded to articles, it would  encourage members to write more articles!

You mean for writing articles?? I think that would be a good idea. But I am not sure whether the administrator should continue giving points for reading an article. A person who joined only yesterday has read 112 articles & points were awarded for that too. There is nothing wrong in it but the person has been very active in forum too. So I doubt if the person I refer to has really digested the articles that he read. If at all points has to be awarded for reading an articles can it be done with a condition that a particular page has to be open for a minimum time duration before points are awarded. As of now points are awarded as soon as we open an article. So whether we read it or close it we get points, which some members misuse.

I feel that  points for reading an article shd be given only if you remain n the page for certain duration and also make a comment , that's how it used to be before. And there were points awarded for articles when I had joined the site which was later discontinued. The points given for reading articles is very easy to gather so  it has been misused by most members ...
