Concise description:
  • Have a category for pending suggestions

Specifics:
  • In a similar manner to rejected and implemented a section for pending.

This will improve the following aspects of the site:
  • Meaning only suggestions un-assigned a verdict will be in the main area. Allowing discussion more easily

That's the idea of the current setup of the forum. Everything in the main forum is pending, and if an idea is rejected or implemented it gets moved. Unfortunately this forum was filled to the gills before implementing this suggestion so there is still a ton of cleaning and moving to do.

Sully, if that's the case, then why isn't there a sub-forum for "Pending Suggestions" like there is for "Implemented Suggestions" and "Rejected Suggestions"? Where IS the "pending section" kept...hidden away from us all?

He says the main Suggestions & Bug Reports is the one where pending ones go...

Well, since this thread has now been moved to the IMPLEMENTED section, there's no worry about him actually seeing our discontent. How nice for him!

(Though this has NOT been implemented to any relevant or effective degree.)

Exactly my point either have the main area as "Pending" or a sub-forum for pendings. I suggest the latter. The former results in a struggle to find any thread that has a pending sticker. With the few pendings hidden in a mass of unclassified it makes sense to cut them up.

Well, when simple suggestions are sitting as PENDING for 3+ years, things get a little crowded, don't you know...

I do understand completely. There cannot genuinely be over 100 pages of suggestions to-do. The vast majority 90-95% will be unclassified.

Number of titles with Pending in: (Using search function btw)
53 (minus this is 52)

It wouldn't let me search to-do as it's too popular and the word is too short. I would say it's most likely 4 times as many at least. So do us a favour and actually make it a category
