Here are three screen shots displaying just how intense the MultiCharts people are about rising to the top and staying at the top regarding having the best software in their category. I was the one who suggested they have a bug tracker software way back in 2007 when I first registered. Not sure if they listened to me or thought of it themselves.

The first image shows that when you post on a forum they direct your attention to when to use the bug tracker. It is the yellow strip at the top. It contains a link to the bug tracker and a link to help on it.

The second image is the first page that appears when you click the link to go to the bug tracker. Feature requests and bugs are entered. The downside is I think they get overloaded. Regardless they want to sift through it and prioritize based upon their own judgement. They extract from it to create their own to-do list you might call it. If we submit a request we get an email indicating it's status has changed. So if they put in a feature we requested we are made aware of it (I think - I can't remember this happening - it should).

The third image is an example of the detail screen (in this case a feature request). You can see there is a place where we can vote. I just noticed my example has 65 votes. Wow. I have never seen one that high. One of my entries got 15 if I remember correctly. I think they put it in.

Regarding voting I suggested they give us the option to sign up to have emails with the subject line of any new items entered in the bug tracker emailed to us. Otherwise we are not aware aware of them and end up not voting when we might. They never put this in :-) Maybe they figured no one would want this many emails or maybe they are just too busy. Maybe the 65 vote suggests people do in fact scan this bug tracker list regularly unlike myself who does not.
