From my side and amongst a long list that I have, I will mention four:
1- Add ability to edit comments on articles amd blogs.
2- Add ability to remove connection requests sent my mistake.
3- Update PMChallenge Questions, NODs and Badges.
4- Introduce New Badges. (Example: 50 K & 100K Connections) Saving Changes...
1. The ability to block a member, and not receive any of the email notifications they post in a thread, blog or article that we are also subscribed to.
2. The ability to like and dislike a post, rather than just a vote or rating.

I would prefer to keep the rating. Make adjustments to the rating for something like 1 - Disagree 2 - Partly disagree 3 - Neutral 4 - Agree 5 - Strongly agree and a graph of the response

#A - An Option mailbox to “manage Connections” - Nice to have “manage connection massages” which will enable reviewing all previous sent “connection requests” as well “resend or follow up” option when necessitated.
#B - Profile page addition after “project” space as another tab “Publications OR Educations” to add formal educations like Bachelors, Diploma , masters as well different papers , articles , speeches shared on various events & forums ( Everyone currently writing these on Text space provided under section “Resume/Bio” ).

Good suggestions Debasish - You have you have the ability to do all this under your profile but yet, I agree it is better to have them represented in separate tabs.

If Network is to be highlighted in avatar next to posts, also place Discussion posts and influence rating
Show when a member joined in profile
Show when a member was last active
Push content over forcing members to pull, i.e., show me, send me
Notification options email or having a true inbox in the site
Choose how to receive notifications, individually, daily summary, weekly summary, none
Rich Text Editor (RTE) for comments
Ability to search within your own past contributions inside your profile
Realistically, the platform itself needs to be modernized. That exercise in itself, honestly, will automatically take care of the majority of our recommendations.

Great suggestions Andrew and yes, the site needs to be modernized big time. We havent seen any significant changes really. Even the badges were never updated.

Need to make it easier for people to search existing posts before posting a question. There are many repeat questions in the forums. Either need more relevant categories of Communities or a feature where, as a person types in a question, the system shows snippets from existing posts that might answer the person's question. This is a common feature in most IT devops websites

I fully agree with you, we need for example a category for Certifications so anyone can easily be guided there.
Nothing new from me. I would like to see features for :
1. Enabling edit for blogs & articles
2. Like or dislike a post in addition to rating
3. To view who voted for our comments

I agree with everything posted so far.
I would also like to have better management of our network. I would like the ability to filter, sort, search my network.

Fully agree especially when someone has a large network, it is good to have the ability to filter for example who from your network is in your city, or in your chapter.

Good one. I'd love to be able to sort my network by Continent, Country, City, Industry and Job Title. If, for example, I'm traveling in Singapore and I can easily see that someone in my network lives there, I'd probably arrange to meet with them.

Sante,
Good suggestions but I think:
1- Item 1 is two separate issues.
2- Item 2 while it might be useful, yet it might cause some undesired tension and hard feelings which we do not want to happen.
Thoughts ? I am asking because it is good to have rationale behind our suggestions.

Rami agreed, issue one can be split into two. The reason I like the "dislike" option is that it may deter "silly" posts and raise the quality. Ratings can hide bad and good ratings in the "average". Likes and dislikes you can see straight away at the top of the post.
