Before JIRA, a thousand years ago, or so it seems, LL had a different suggestion/bug system. Something custom-made by LL, IIRC.

The deal was that they, LL, would at least comment on the issue if it received more than 100 resident votes. This wasn't required by the software but it was something LL did anyway to show that they did in fact notice things that residents seemed to care about.

I'd like to see this again. There seems to be a lot of suggestions that the public's hot for but that have no comments from LL in them. Even just a "yeah, this sounds good but it'd kick the crap outta the asset server so we're not going to do anything until we can come up with a clever plan" would be great.

LL has realized that everything they say will be used against them. They may see the JIRA as a way the customer is trying to force them to do something they do not want to do. They just hired a firm and announced that new SL interface will be out in 2009. So I think the JIRA is now just an excercise in futility. They have chosen the features they want and our opinion is no longer appreciated (if it ever was).

if you sort the jira by votes and look over to the column the denotes "assigned/unassigned" you'll notice something interesting. dismaying, but interesting. I see no reason to vote on any jira issues anymore.
