Has Mumsnet ever considered a re-vamp?

Have the powers-that-be ever considered a major overhaul of the site? It has so much potential, but it has one of the most problematic set-ups of any chat forum I've ever encountered - in the table of contents, in the forums that exists (or don't), in the way messages are posted, etc.

I think it's about time too, there are several threads in Trending, that are over a year old (zombie) and no recent posts. So strange.

Just my opinion obv!

I'm only on here and Facebook.

Have delved in Twitter, Reddit, and a few others.

This site is awesome. The format is great. I like the simplicity. And the honesty.

Nope to edit nope to like.

Edit means people who talk bollocks can change it when they get pasted. Nope. I like that people who write nonsense can't change it.

Like. Nope. The really good thing about MN is the conversation. People saying yes or no and why. Like is lazy and adds nothing to the conversation.

Edit function would be good and the ability to 'like' a post

The only two things I think are wrong with it are that we don't have an edit function, and the search is absolutely rubbish. What else is wrong?

I like it but then I've been here for years and am used to it!

Best thing to do would be speed it up esp for long threads.
