More in the issue category.

The issue is that a suggestion in GD will get more attention and upvotes with an hour than a thread in Suggestions may for days or longer.
For this reason, I say bump the whole Suggestion forum up a bit. There's an entire group of players that never scroll down the forums more than once a week if not longer. Why would we put such an important forum so far out of sight?

Bugs/Issues works wherever since if there's a problem, people will actively seek to report it. Suggestions isn't like that. You would receive a much more varied and accurate representation of how things are received if it was closer to the public eye, even by such a small move. I have friends I've run this by that do website/ app designing for companies/ individuals that agree.

Whether or not the ideas are implemented, whatever. But I'd like to see the R+'s come from being seen on one's own and agreeing, not pitching it to people enough to get it enough upvotes for it to gain any traction. Not getting upvotes doesn't mean it's a bad idea in the current state of Suggestions, in fact there's a lot of great ones that would break 100 R+ within days of being in GD, not weeks or months where they currently are

We can check Joe's thoughts on this one. OP is asking for the Suggestions section to be moved up the Forums categories.

Yeah, I have issues with that sometimes. Trying to stress the concept and making it overly bulletproof to create as little misunderstanding/ needless dissent as possible

1. I really don't think that would help much. Any effect would really be very minimal.
2. Suggestion threads will be highlighted in the future news ticker
3. I like the current order of forums.

While we may disagree on the effects of a possible move, your 2nd point interests me, and I believe may serve to give the Suggestions category the boost I'm looking for. Thus, I accept the decision without argument :)

I may have an inkling of how this ticker may work, but would you be able to expand upon the idea a bit? As far as basic function goes, nothing too in depth.
