I would feel like a winner if......
Know it's the wrong thread, BUT I wish to goodness they would sort out the likeability view button! Makes it so much easier when you haven't much time! The whole point of this forum is to make it easier to do comps so why can't this be sorted out? I've posted about it a few times, but nothing seems to be happening....…

Merging the discussion boards
I have been looking at the forum numbers and the Debate Economy & House Price in 'Pure Money' has had between 8 and 15 people viewing today, while Discussion Time has had hundreds. I noticed that they also have many of the same topics under discussion and often with the same people on both boards. Given that the Pure Money…

Who makes the decision to move threads and what do they base it on? Reason i ask is yet again I have had my threads moved to a non related thread. Exciting things with couscous does NOT relate to my measurement issues? I am fed up of having my threads moved to irrelevant boards/threads etc.. I had one of my threads moved…

Changing my user name
I joined a while ago but have only just got the confidence and time to begin putting posts on some of the forums. I'm reluctant to because my user name is to similar to my actual name. I'd like like to change my user name to something more anonymous but can't work out how to do it. Is it possible or do I need to join again…

Another thread removed, why?
Someone is baffled why a thread was removed Perhaps we should have a thread or section for removed threads, with the moderator giving reasons why? Some feedback would be useful so posters can understand the rules better and improve the quality of the posts.

Travel Money Section Best Rate
I suggest treat it with a grain of salt. I was just scammed in a very minor way...........at lunchtime, Travelex were top of the list for HK$ at 12.381. A bit of a surprise as they are not noted for their generosity. I took them up on it for £500, clicked the link and quickly through it........I was in a hurry and this WAS…

What is the process if you don't like a post?
I have probably posted about six posts (usually about the KFC man) and when I go to see whether he has replied they are no longer on the site. Question, if you don't like a post are you able just to tick it as "spam" or report it to the Mods just to get it deleted. I will experiment with this one I think. Firstly, Gimpere…

problems with merging text
I've posted a couple of posts which have been merged into larger posts recently. There are obviously pluses and minuses with this. I am sure the logic behind the merging is that it keeps the board tidy and that I should help folk read nice long text on a subject instead of jumping around. However for me recently I tried to…

FAULT - Thread title not changed in forum listing when edited
Here’s something for the MSE techies to investigate. It’s not particularly important in this particular case, but it is a fault and should not happen. There are cases where it would be important. Is this a one-off glitch or a more serious fault? On the forum:- http://forums.moneysavingexpert.com/forumdisplay.php?f=93…

The tax credit renewal thread merged.
Recently all threads that were posted regarding tax credit renewals have been automaically merged into one thread. This may well be easier for the board guides to keep an eye on the thread but for the posters who are posting looking for help/advice on their renewals it is not so good..... Most of the posts which are made…

News of the World
There's more than a little black humour associated with the title of the gem of a publication which is the "News of the World Teen Cash Class" on the site I'd hate for my daughter to learn anything about money from them! Time to get the redaction pen out perhaps...?

Odd smut filter?
Am I naive? Why is g h o u l a swear word on MSE? I thought it just meant a macabre monster, a spectre. Does it have another, more unsavoury meaning?
