Suggestions and Feedback for the Forums announcements

What is the purpose of this forum?
The purpose of this forum is to give users a voice on Forums. Users can give suggestions for improvements or vote up suggestions and know that the Forums team is listening. If you have a specific question regarding Forums please post questions to Forums Redesign – Q&A / Discussions. If you are encountering a Forums bug please post this in the Forums Issues forum.
Best Practices
- Only post suggestions
- Only post one suggestion per thread, this will provide clarity to the suggestion and allow users to know what they are voting up
- We encourage you to vote! Voting allows the Forums team to know what users want the most
- Use Questions and not Discussion thread types, this will allow us to “close” suggestions once they are no longer relevant or have been addressed.
Who reads these suggestions?
As previously stated this is a place to be heard by directly by the Forums team. Although we may not respond to every post, we are actively reading through each suggestion. We will not implement every suggestion, however, we release once a month and commit to consider suggestions from the community every release.

This is an announcements forum, intended for the forums team to communicate important news to all Forums users. Please do not post here unless you have reason to make an announcement. While we appreciate all of the smoke-testing while these forums are new, we respectfully request that you do that in the Sandbox forums for any of the brands.
Thanks for using the new Forums!
MSDN and TechNet Profile and Recognition System Discussions announcements
-
Link
It's for discussions on our profile system and our new recognition system. It is not a place to ask questions about Windows or Sharepoint or Insert your product here. There are specific forums for products and technologies. Please use them. Out of context forum threads will be deleted from this forum.
-
Link
The FAQ has been updated (currently only the EN-US FAQ) to now contain details of the activities, points and achievements in the recognition system. Start here and give it a read: http://msdn.microsoft.com/en-us/ff395928#_Recognition_System
If you have questions or feedback, please use this Forum so we can capture the conversations and update the FAQ as time goes.
Thanks!
