  PT Suggestion
 
Dan mentioned an idea to me, but he's letting me post about it. Probably because I was the one who wanted to see what other people think. On the review results page (you know, the little page that says you posted a review successfully), would be (...) (22 years ago, 30-Jun-02, to lugnet.cad.dev)
 
  Re: Another PT Suggestion
 
(...) Good idea. I was working on something like this, a way to search the activity log, but I got distracted. Steve (22 years ago, 30-Jun-02, to lugnet.cad.dev)
 
  Another PT Suggestion
 
I'd like to see a Parts I've Submitted page. This way I can keep track of what I've submitted and respond to comments quicker. -Orion (22 years ago, 29-Jun-02, to lugnet.cad.dev)

(...) Sounds good to me. If someone does hack it, we need to get it reported. Then we can disable it for awhile. Paul (22 years ago, 28-Jun-02, to lugnet.cad.dev.org.ldraw)
 
  Re: Part Voting Issue
 
(...) Yes, we would not display the destination email address, just the destination Parts Tracker userid. Good idea on the fixed subject line. Although it wouldn't be hard to hack the form, if the locking is just enforced by the HTML code. Steve (22 years ago, 27-Jun-02, to lugnet.cad.dev.org.ldraw)

(...) I'd definitely want the destination address locked, probably not even displayed (just the name / user code), and a fixed subject line, too eg "Review of part xxxx", to disuade people from using it for anything other than PT email. ROSCO (22 years ago, 26-Jun-02, to lugnet.cad.dev.org.ldraw)
