  1. You have destroyed the Yahoo! Message Boards...it's far worst than it used to be!

    With thousands of posts a day, allow users to effectively rate up and down posts like the old implementation. Today's rating system does not work. Take a look at the aapl board for reference. It's nearly impossible to follow a good thread

        • Limit obsessed nut-cases/multiple Ids/scripts from crowding out others

          Study AMD message board for the last 30 days. Same obsessed nut-case has been using multiple ids to flood the message board and/or reposting old messages, and/or replying to his/her own messages with either same message or gibberish, and/or attaching script-generated replies, etc. The obvious purpose is to keep the nut-cases posts visible in the first three pages or so all the time. This kind of abuse makes the discussion board less of a discussion board!
          A simple throttling rule can prevent the abuse:
          -same id must wait at least 20 minute before reporting or replying
          -use a captcha system…

                • Sorry Yahoo, REPORTING your "abuser" account holders is not working!

                  I HAVE reported the same authors with the SAME threads over and over and they keep reappearing. They are accusing me of "******", how can any MB actually allow this kind of abuse over and over, by the SAME Yahoo account holders??? Can someone PLEASE answer me that!

                  • Bring back ability to look at a thread chronologically

                    In the "classic" MB, there was the ability to bring up the most recent twenty messages in a thread in reverse time order. You could go backwards in time twenty messages at a time. This was perfect for reading messages on long threads. Now the only way to read a thread is a nested response tree where you get only a few messages at a time. There is no way to view a thread chronologically any more. Most of the time I am looking for specific information in a long thread and do not care who responded to whom.

                      • You should make it easy for us posters to notify you of spam. And you should delete them. The spammers are trying to advertise for free.

                        There are a lot of spammers on your boards. Add "spam" to the flag icon so posters can alert you to them. And then delete the spam. After all, the spammers are trying to advertise for free. Yahoo should charge them and be paid. But most importantly, help us help you get rid of spammers. Thanks.

                        • The old format was easier to navigate and follow a thread. New is regressed

                          The new format is ****** to folow and navigate through a thread.

                          Return to the old format

                          • Ferret out your filthy moderators who will for no legitimate reason other than their own personal bias, decide to not post your post.

                            Yahoo continues to allow its moderators to filter out posting they don't like for their own subjective biases. The unforgivable thing is that no matter how many times you write Yahoo about this, they simply send you an automated response, which irks the heck out of me.

                            It appears this company does not want you to have ANY way to get your letter live, and certainly throws up every roadblock to call them, as you will never reach anyone and simply be transfered to someone who will never call you back. If your CEO knew the filth that goes on,…

                              • yahoo, if you monitored these comments you would realize you have extreme hate and obscenity pervading these forums

                                And by the way obscenity on these boards is increasing. It is disgusting and when I report it nothing happens. I really must shop for a better place that is somewhat moderated that doesn't allow people to post what are in fact extremely obscene and graphic posts as well as some of the worst hate speech I've ever seen (at a level that would be criminal in some countries!)

                                  • So bad. Please do not try to change the message board again.

                                    Yahoo board is blessed with huge user base but Yahoo is actively trying to push people away by creating one of the absolutely worst user interface.

                                    I could build a much better forum for you in 2 months with just 3 students.
