Absolutely AWESOME idea. I'm a player collector first, teams second, sets last.

I am deffo not a set collector. Much like ranfordfan, I am a player collector first followed by team. Very rarely do I organize by set.

Maybe you are reaching a bit in some of the ideas you mention but I do believe some are not that far away considering it is available in other areas of the site. I do like the idea of matches per member.
Now, is it because Admin is swamped, did not understand what I meant, or ignoring me like many of you do, that they have not gotten around to adding this in the list of features to rate?

I would drop Admin a note requesting that info. I left my ESP hat at home today.

All good suggestions . Some refinements to the match lists/ transaction manager system would prove to be beneficial to different ways to different members depending on the individual's perogative. I do use the matrch list system and particualrily if you miss a few days you quickly accumulate several if not many matches. Not sure how comprehensive you could make changes, but "baby steps" could be the best way forward.. Just a thought.

Bruno, my guess is that Admin has probably received hundreds of suggestions since adding the suggestions feature. He might be trying to keep the list short. I have probably sent 15-20 myself, and I consider each idea to be absolutely brilliant. But I think two gave shown up.

I'm going to reevaluate how I collect after the new year. It's just getting way too expensive for the new stuff. Sometimes I just want to buy a pack, not a whole box or even blaster.

Thanks Dave. That may be the case. We all have great ideas; unfortunately there is only one (maybe 2 or 3) of him. Just hard to prioritize the ideas that are really important to the whole membership if they never get posted.
After I started this thread and got mostly positive responses and strong support, I did PM Admin with a link to the thread. Maybe by putting one's suggestions in a Forum thread initially to see what kind of support it would get might help in sorting the most wanted to the "nice to have but not while there is so much more to do" ideas.
We will just have to wait and see.

I would benefit from this enhancement greatly.
The most trading I do in modern baseball is with set collectors that have many needs (for cards of my Team that are not On my want list.
I actually browse the other person trade list by team, copy the list into text file, and use that list to select card by card, set by set in transaction manager

Bruno, I actually submitted something similar a couple of weeks back and I too have been patiently waiting. Perhaps Admin is consolidating the ideas or something.
I came here from Zistle and there we had a feature that would show you the top X members with the most combined matches. So say I had 25 of your wants on my tradelist and you had 20 of my wants on your trade list, it would list us as having 20 matches. It was a card-for-card match. Obviously not all trades are card-for-card but many are and it at least worked well in figuring out who your best potential trade partners are. It would then list your top 10 or top 5 in card-for-card matches I can't fully remember the exact number.

This is now in the New Feature rating list (two separate items - one for team and the other for Player/subject matching). In case you wish to rate and move it up in priority.
