I think having a way to give a post a "thumbs up" or "thumbs down" would be incredibly useful. If someone posts a thorough response to a question, there might not be a reason to continue to post in the thread, but it would indicate to the OP that others agree with the advice (i.e. a rating of 10 thumbs up). Likewise, if there are conflicting opinions it would help the OP determine which options are backed by more BAFers. Since I've found people to generally be knowledgeable on this site, I think a feature like this has the potential to really help out people who have questions (since in my experience on here the people with shady advice are in the minority). Thoughts?

  LOL

I think it's a great idea and might help with the whole not feeding the trolls thing because threads have been getting out of hand with people feeling the need to reply to express the same sentiment as someone else to back them up. If we could thumbs up or down or a smiliar system we could just use that to express our reaction if we have nothing new to add to the thread.

lol.. i also give that a

...and I'm pretty sure it's been mentioned before... and it would take a long time..... but.. I, too, would like the option to search for the general color of plugs I want. It would be nice for me to just search for "green" or "blue" and get all the plugs that had that color in it... but again.. it would take a long time.

You can kinda do that now with the plain search bar at the top, just type in the color you wanna search for. If you wanna narrow it down more you can like select gauge or style or whatever if you go to the 'advanced search' too.

Eg, blue plugs: http://www.bodyartforms.com/products.asp?keywords=blue&jewelry=plugs&gauge=&length=&material=&flare_type=&price=&brand=&out=yes&preorders=yes&Advanced=Search

 I think that the thumbs up/down thing is a good idea, however the people that do post the bad advice would be thumbs upping their stuff... so it could backfire and not be as beneficial... 

I'm sure they could make it to where you could only do it once per post, I know of a couple of sites that do it similar to this. Like "Was this review helpful? Yes/No"

This is something we will be implementing in about 2-3 months. We have a few other projects we are finishing up first, but after that we have to work on assigning every single product at the site to a color. Once we do that we can release a filter by color option :)

 Would you be able to split up the CBR category into a few subcategories? Like say CBRs, 'smooth' or 'beadless', and 'gap insertion' rings?

 Also, there seem to be a fair amount of manufacturers missing from the search list... Liquid glass for one, and that cbr brand 'SM316'.

 We need a "add checked items to cart" option in our wishlists! If we want to suddenly buy a few items on our list ourselves (which we all do), that would be so much easier than searching for all the items all over again, choosing size, quantity...etc.

Also good for those who use their wishlists as temporary carts.

Ooooh, good idea!  +1

I do agree that an 'add all checked items to cart' option would be great. Also being able to keep things in your cart when logged in so if you come back in a couple hours your stuff is still there.

so you shouldn't have to go find anything over again.

I think she meant finding it in your wishlist. A lot of us have pretty extensive wishlists and it does suck to look through, regardless of categories, haha.

I agree.  Plus, everytime you hit 'add to cart', it takes you to the cart, so you have to go BACK to the wishist.  With the boxes, you could just go down, check a few, then hit an 'add to cart' button at the bottom of the page.  Similar to the 'delete checked' button.

I mean, it's obviously not NECESSARY, but it'd be less clicks and chances of adding double items to your cart..which I've done before...
