Been wondering about this area of the site for a while. I understand how you do it and I have done a few. Admim has gotten back a couple times stating that there are features that would do what I wanted. ( not exactly how I wanted it done but close enought and will work)
My understanding:
Admim approves them before they can to be ranked.
You do not vote on them you rank them in the order you would like to see them done.
The better you explain your feature request the more it is likely to be looked at.
What I do not understand:
How the score is figured for sure. My one request has gone up instead of down the last couple of months. (Not in Any List Filter)
Do they get removed after a time span or Admim do it? Appears the oldest one is in Nov. 2018 and one of mine disapeared a while ago.
It appears there are several requests that appears to be the same or like features added already. Is there someone that check these or is it the Admim who does all of this. (maybe that is why one of mine disapeared) Do any of you L8s contact him about similar feature requests?
Is there a way to remove them from your ranking?
Is there a way to find out who submitted the request? The one that I think is mine is not exactly what I wrote in my request.
Would clarifying and adding more information to your request help? Or even noting there are several other features that could be done at the same time? Would this information have to go to Admim directly.
Is there a way to know what Admim is working on? (just the feature issues)
