re: Explanation box when refusing international mooch? I like this idea, it's now on my todo list. John Buckman 13 years ago
re: Homeschoolers..... Of course, you can have any forum on BookMooch you want. Just go ahead and create one: http://bookmooch.com/m/forum_create_menu John Buckman 13 years ago
re: Feature suggestion: 'Notes' field I was planning to add a "notes to self" for each mooch. However, it sounds like you're asking for a general "notes to self", perhaps that would be in your profile? John Buckman 13 years ago
re: Feature suggestion: Reserved books   1. I would love to be able when reserving a book for someone to get a drop down screen that shows all of my friends so I might click on the ones I am wanting to reserve for rather than having to just reserve for all friends or trying to type in each one individually. It would be much easier for those of us with a lot of BM friends and less confusing. I'm going to be removing the "reserve for friends" feature, as that's the biggest source of complaints about the reservation feature. As a substitute, I like your idea of listing your friends and letting you select them when you reserve the book.   2. It would be nice to have a link that would take you to any books that have been reserved for you that you can check. I know a lot of us don't always send a book recommendation to all our friends when ever we put a reserve on a book for all friends nor do some of us want to get all those emails, as I have been told by my Bookmooch friends so I sparingly send them now :o) so I think this would be a good alternative for those who do not want to receive individual emails saying that a book has been recommended to or put on reserve for them. Good suggestion, also on my todo now. John Buckman 13 years ago
re: Accounts on hold Hmm.. accounts that are on hold are being reviewed by admins, and in theory, if they stay on hold for a while (ie, admins don't un-hold them), they should be either closed or vacation. I can write something for admins to find members who have been on hold a long time, and have the admins clean those up. My guess is that some on-hold accounts are dropping through the cracks.

re: A good idea possibly for bookmooch It's a good idea, I like it, and could be a simple display of info on your mooch history. John Buckman 13 years ago
re: Block Member Request... Are you reporting these members for potential abuse? You might want to. Even if they didn't really do "abuse" per se, if the admins receive several "this person is not friendly" reports, that definitely has an effect. John Buckman 13 years ago
re: Pending Page I totally agree, and redoing the pending page is high on my priority list. John Buckman 13 years ago
re: Suggestion: an encrypted connection for logins and profile information changes Yes, cost and complexity is the reason. As a non-commercial site relying entirely on donations, an extra $1000 per year is a _lot_. Also, because we use Amazon for book covers, and that isn't https protected (amazon doesn't support that), some browsers would pop up warnings about the page only being partially encrypted, and that would cause other complaints.
