User Voice: What do you want Logos to do?

http://logos.uservoice.com/forums/42823-logos-bible-software-5.

I am posting this to General instead of Suggestions to help publicize User Voice.
Do you know that you can vote on what changes Logos makes?

This is "An experiment in user-ranking of feature priorities for Logos 5"

Here we get to vote on changes that we would like to see in Logos
BUT we only get 10 votes per customer and a three vote limit on any one item

One popular post: "but I have no votes left"

What if we got 10 votes per thousand resources owned as reported by our Library? [Less count of PBB and Vyrso]
[Add the PERSEUS collection get ten more votes]

There are lots of reasons to treat everyone equal but might this be a place where Logos should hear more from those that keep it in business? Unless someone else suggests that the three votes per item change [to maybe 5 or 10 votes] the ones with larger libraries could not pile on one topic too much. But they would be able to support more than the three items the rest of us can.

[If we get a consensus someone may have to post a summary to Suggestions]

Great suggestion! But I think Perseus shouldn't count at all.

I think there should also be an upper limit at say 2700 resources. And there should be increments of 100 resources between 1000-2700, each step from 1100-2700 one vote.

Uservoice is not a logos site, and the ten votes is a uservoice limit - not a Logos limit. To change the number of votes based on the size of our library will require custom programming for Logos and for Uservoice, and this would cost $$$$$.

Since UserVoice is run by another company, it probably won't be possible for the maximum number of votes to be controlled by data related to your Logos.com account, sorry.

Uservoice is not a logos site, and the ten votes is a uservoice limit - not a Logos limit.

I wonder if it's customizeable by the client (Logos) though. Perhaps in their account they can set it up so that users get a limit of X votes, and they could bump it up to 20 instead of 10, say. They couldn't make it dynamic based on the user's library size. And I'm not sure I'd like that anyway. I know I have an enormous library relative to others, but I don't think that should give me more of a say of what features Logos implements next. That would mean rich people get an advantage over those with less, and that isn't fair at all in the Christian world (cf. James 2:1-7, for example).

I think those of us who are older should get way more votes than younger folks. After all we statistically cannot afford to wait as long as you can for a new feature to find support and get implemented. So I say 10 votes for everyone and those 60 and older get 100. [:)]

Picked Perseus as it has about 1000 resources -I ignored that it was free and maybe off topic
If we are to have an upper limit of 2700 that is just a little larger than portfolio

Yet another of my fantastic ideas shot down because of filthy lucre [:@]

Tom left us with the hope that we could solve that problem with filthy lucre. [U]
[Thanks for the reality check]

The only "test" of the customers' usage that Logos could have seen would be the enormous library. The assumption was that those with a large library would be using the system more and maybe realize what was needed better. [Maybe and we do need to be aware of how wrong assumptions can be]

[[Your ideas often prove to be worth several of ours - thanks for all of them]]

Now there is an idea I could back
[Disclaimer: without Perseus my library is in the 3000 range and yes, I am over 60]

Possibly, but they might just be buying up books and not using them. Perhaps a better test would be how many user documents (Notes, Passage Lists, Visual Filters, etc.) they had created.

Or what about how active they are on the forums. [;)]

[[ A ]] Perhaps a better test would be how many user documents (Notes, Passage Lists, Visual Filters, etc.) they had created.

[[ B ]] Or what about how active they are on the forums.

[[ A ]] I keep my research in Word rather then Logos so I will not get many votes

[[ B ]] Much better then my idea! - one vote per one hundred posts - and I will gain one whole vote - yes, great idea!
