A: Option to sort answers by Age The order that answers (and comments) are displayed should be chronological so that the reader can follow how things went by default. If the user wants to rely on consensus or popularity to determine what order to read information then he can select "Score" or "Active" (sic.) The chronological or... (more) |

No visitor knows they have the moral imperative to edit someone else's question or answer, that lofty power is reserved for OP/admins/moderators.
You want people to leave the small incremental bits of information in footnotes then rename comments to footnotes, stop threading at one level deep, onl... (more) |

Meta is akin to Talk pages on Wikipedia, that is fine. Comments are like footnotes that contain information that I treasure. Answers from 4 people are no substitute for answers from 2 people and comments from 10 more that fine tune the answers. The comments should proudly be part of the knowledge ... (more) |

Threading seems like a useful compromise but I must say it is intrusive here when you have to leave the question page to read or engage in the comments. Punitive irritation is not the way to get people to respect a system. People are quite familiar with threading systems and the normal user interfa... (more) |

Yes, the fact that I see a title that may be carefully considered or automatically generated for what may be some comment that contains 1000 characters or simply 10 more than the title is disconcerting. Scrolling is so much faster than aiming and clicking on a button to open something that is hidden... (more) |

| Question | — |
User based styling Is there any way to adjust the Styling in user profiles. I struggle to see the hairline borders for edit entry areas before they are selected and also prefer to to have less vertical white space between related elements as this simply causes vertical scrolling and does not convey information. I... (more) |

Add button to select Meta post destination Add button to select Meta post destination to site META or Global META at the time of posting. More than one of my posts are probably Global META suggestions but have ended up in Site META because I happen to be browsing a site when I notice the deficiency.

| Question | — |
Remove "Post" terminology from sites other than META Why are (outside of META where it makes some sense) Questions and answers called Posts? Is this because the coders are trying hard to show neutrality or are wanting to reuse some code snippet? As an answerer and a questioner and I suspect most other visitors to the site, occasional and recurrin... (more) |

Can the delay before the date be reduced to ZERO or some CSS styling placed on the relative date text so that a user can see that there is some reason to hesitate there long enough for the full date format to show. (more) |

| Question | — |
Date Display formatting Is there a way to see the actual date and time in most significant first ordered form YYYY.MM.DD HH:MM:SS for questions, answers and comments. This was beaten to death at SE and the consensus was it should be universal and not English or US centric. When you hover over a date on SE it shows you... (more) |

Just to bump this a bit, having the other copy, history, suggest, flag buttons left and centre all the time and the answer they are referring to highlighted slightly (20% grey background) would indicate which answer they will belong to. (more) |

A: Display accurate post or comment time when hovering It appears this functionality is implemented as planned. You just have to hover for a tiny bit more than an impatient visitor might do the first time and also trust that the date words are an active site even though there are no styling clues. (more) |

The only place I have seen a full datetime was when looking at an edit history. None of the time indications have a hover or click,
SORRY, MY BAD. I was not hovering for long enough. (more) |

Yes, I concur this would be best. Indication and tools all in one fixed place is optimal.

I posted a comment but it did not stick, not sure if I have enough cred.
The floating idea same as posted in other answer would be ideal but I fear the scripting cost. If it can be done with styling or HTML code then that would be ideal.

A small tool area to navigate through answers on a question page I like the idea of a small tool zone for each answer that lets you skip quickly to the previous or next one. A navigation button or keyboard short-cut or gesture to skip one post at a time (Next/previous) just by clicking on one spot on the screen would let one scan through all the answers and sto...

Draft saved notice disrupts page flow I love the editor, it is so white and clean. I think the idea of having the title field at the bottom is genius. It lets you collect your thoughts and make a really meaningful title. I have a complaint though that is a styling issue I expect. There is a wee notification Draft Saved under the ed... (more) |

Implement duplicate up-down vote buttons I would like to have a smaller pair of duplicate UP and Down vote buttons at the end of a answer or question so I can vote after I have read it. I do not want to scroll up to vote especially if there is only one answer and I do not need to read further to make my vote. Such 'advanced' features ca... (more) |

Display accurate post or comment time when hovering I would like to see the date and time in UTC or my own time zone if set when I hover over the vague about 12 days ago to be able to compare when two events actually happened or any other reason.
