SUGGESTION FOR MSE - Benefits Discussion Sub-Board
I am fed up seeing all the discussion threads on the advice board. The BG's have recently been doing a good job of moving the relevant board but it is getting untidy. Even the MSE Officials are getting in on the act and posting discussions articles! They can't even follow their own rules. I suggest that there is a…

"Can you wipe out your debts" Guide
Extract from the site: The airwaves are plagued with claims companies promising to wipe out pre-April 2007 debts by exploiting Consumer Credit Act loopholes and we’re working on a full step-by-step guide to expose the myths & reality as to whether you can get credit card debts wiped out. The legal issues involved mean…

Add your feedback to <mobile phone buying companies>
Hello, I have a suggestion for the forum.. I am currently thinking of selling my old mobile phone and used the sites calculator to see who would give me the most for it. I thought it was great that each site had a thread dedicated to feedback on how good the company were. The only problem is that some sites have loads of…

Quidco and Forum finances
Thanks for deleting my question to the Quidco Rep, despite this thread being the only place they respond. Tell me, though - why, when there are non-topic posts all over moneysavingexpert forums, all of which are left alone, are the rules somehow different for this thread? I've never seen such a concerted effort to delete…

Display Name
I thought vBulletin had a display name field under the User CP? Has it been disabled or have I just missed it? I might be thinking of phpBB tho...

Does the report post button actually work?
I reported a post tonight for a user getting around the banned words filter. I clicked on the abuse icon to send an e-mail and it automatically filled in the post link address. However, I've just used the address it filled in, and it took me to someone else's post! So apparently I've now reported the wrong post! Wondering…

How do I contact a board guide?
If I click on the name it wants to open up microsoft outlook but I don't use that.

A "you've thanked this" button
I don't know if this as ever been suggested but is there any chance that some kind of icon could be added to a list of thread if you have thanked it? Thinking more of the competition threads. This way we would know straight away if we had clicked on thanks without having to open up the actual thread.

Search Function
Hi, I'm fairly new to the forum, but looks to be useful. However, is it possible to find the threads you have posted in easily. I've responded to a new of them, but then can't remember which one's I have answered. If follow-up questions are asked regarding my response, I have a real job finding them again. I might be…

Privacy settings
I'm having problems changing privacy settings on my User CP. I follow the instructions given - but i think they need updating. I cant see how to: - ensure that everyone is unable to see my profile page - find out what my "reputation" is in the first place and then block anyone else from seeing what this "reputation" is i…

Manifest Money Talks ripping content from MSE forum?
http://www.manifestmoneytalks.com/ I stumbled on this site just now and was surprised to see posts I'd made on MSE appearing on their forum, as if I've had the discussion there. They seem to be taking some kind of feed from MSE.com and populating their own forum with conversations from here.

Layout changes?
I'm new here I know, but at the risk of sounding cheeky, may I make a couple of suggestions? Upon initial viewing of this forum, the content of which is beyond reproach, I found the visuals and layout a little confusing and 'cluttered'? I have been on the net a while and run my own forum- not that i know what is best…

Thread Subscriptions
Hi folks, We've been experiencing some slowness on the Forum recently and one of the things we've been able to track it down to is the huge amount of thread subscriptions that we have to deal with, some of which date from the instalation of vBulletin, over 4 years ago. In the old days, all users were automatically…

Why no investment forum
Looking back over the past 2-3 years, there have been several requests for an investment forum. The last major reorganisation of this site is now over 6 months old, yet we still don't have one. Ignoring the debates over whether it should be a forum in its own right or a sub-forum; what it should be called; why this site…

Cashback Forum
Apologies if this has already been suggested, I did search and didn't see anything relevant or atleast recent. I've had this idea for awhile and it just seems to be more and more appropriate. In short, how about creating a Forum specifically for all cashback related posts. I understand structuring on any type of forum be…

Sensationalism at the cost of journalistic integrity?
MSE News: Ryanair booking fees soar today http://www.moneysavingexpert.com/news/travel/2009/10/Ryanair-fees-up-today I have commented on the discussion thread for the above story, but any constructive criticism tends to be deleted, so thought it best to post here also. Will MSE ever be able to write an 'editorial' on…

"Independent" advisors to declare interests?
It's forum policy for company reps to ask for permission before posting, but what about those posters who are blatent salespeople, but who come on here pretending to give "independent" advice? Should they be allowed? One prolific poster claims to be "independent", but his "advice" is far from impartial. It is true he is…
