While we're quite confident our investment in mindreading technology paid off—allowing us to design the perfect website for expressing your pet peeves—we thought we'd go ahead and ask you just in case. So, how did we do?

What do you like about this website? Where do you see room for improvement? I know you're all shy people by nature, but we'd appreciate it if you could post your comments on this announcement to tell us what you really think.

Good site, I needed a place to vent. I think you should format it so that we can see more of the rants to get a better idea of whether or not we want to read the whole thing. RIght now there just isn't enough to go by and I don't feel like clicking on every rant to read them. THanks!

Thanks for the feedback!

Thanks for the feedback! We've doubled the maximum number of characters that will appear in the teasers, so you should start to see more text now as new rants are posted.

WebSite Shortcoming

Submitted by AZK on Sun, 01/03/2010 - 11:25pm.

This website is very poor at providing decent instructions on haw to [1] use the overall site, [2] perform a specific task {IE: how to edit a post, prior to final 'SAVE' [3] There should be a 'drop down' menu detailing everything a person needs to know, to utilize each and every function/option, for each and every page a person can 'pull up/go to' on the entire website. The FAQs are totally worthless.

In other words a 'Glossary' of functions, and how specifically to use them, make a POST, how to EDIT errors, and all the other things which are NOT explained throughout the website.

Thank you for the feedback,

Thank you for the feedback, AZK. I'm sorry if we've caused you any frustration. Our goal is to provide the most intuitive user experience possible.

We will reevaluate all the help text and FAQs on MyPetPeeves.com to see if we can improve things. However, it would be very helpful if you could give some specific examples of problems you've encountered. What functions/options did you find confusing? Where there things that didn't function the way you expected them to? What were they, what did you expect and what actually happened? Are there any questions you've wanted to ask that we could add to our FAQs?

I'm afraid we've received precious little feedback from the community since launching this new website design, so any constructive criticism you can provide is welcome and will be taken quite seriously.

Ummm, I don't think so

Sorry, this is a mess.

The headers are bad and from what I see there's topics in small print scattered throughout the site.

NOT easy to navigate AT ALL

Thank you for submitting a

Thank you for submitting a comment, pmartel, but could you please expand on what you said a bit? You can either reply here, or reach me through my personal contact form.

When you say the headers are bad, which headers are you referring to and what about them is bad? Are you talking about the content of the text, or the layout and the way they look? Also, what do you mean by "topics in small print scattered throughout the site"?

As for the navigation, can you tell me what you were trying to find or accomplish that you had trouble with? What would have made it easier? What made it confusing?

Finally, if things look weird on the site, or don't seem to be displaying correctly, then can you let me know what web browser (including the version number) you are using?

The user experience on MyPetPeeves.com is very important to us, but we can only improve things if we get feedback from the community.
