I suggest you ...

You've used all your votes and won't be able to post a new idea, but you can still search and comment on existing ideas.

There are two ways to get more votes:

  • When an admin closes an idea you've voted on, you'll get your votes back from that idea.
  • You can remove your votes from an open idea you support.
  • To see ideas you have already voted on, select the “My feedback” filter and select “My open ideas”.

If it doesn't exist, you can post your idea so others can vote on it.

    1. Add a Leaderboard page for people under a certain number of followers.

      Many brilliant tweets go undiscovered because the authors don't have large enough follower counts yet. By adding a low-followers leaderboard page, this would not only give these tweets a chance to be seen... but it would also help new or fresh talent gain followers by providing them some well deserved exposure. Maybe set the follower-limit to 500 or 1,000 followers... or anywhere in between.

      I think this would also be beneficial to Favstar in general, because many people who have low follower counts don't bother to check Favstar since they know they have no chance of ever making it there.… more

        • bring back 3 star tweets

          There is a big difference between 3 stars and 10 and there are a lot of smart and funny people who don't have enough followers to get 10. The 3 star list is a great way for them to get more followers.

          • Have a page of popular tweets by users who've never had a popular tweet before. (The anti-@sween)

            The leaderboard tends to be full of the same people all the time, many of whom I already follow. I'd like to be able to discover funny people that AREN'T always on the leaderboard.

              • popular tweets by "strangers"

                I'd love for you to create a tab/page for viewing popular tweets by people I DON'T follow. This way, I won't see tweets I've ALREADY read in my twitter stream. It would be a cleaner way to expose me to "new talent". Or at least, new to me.

                Genius, right? I know!

                • Move Users With 50,000+ Followers Off The Leaderboard To The Celebrity Board

                  The current system heavily favors users with 50,000 followers or more. These users dominate the Leaderboard. I propose moving them to the Celebrity Board.

                        • put in a pop-up confirm on the Tweet of the Day as there is with unfollow

                          I have accidentally given out a Tweet of the Day by fumble-fingering, and there is no way to undo it. A confirm pop-up (as with an accidental hit of unfollow) would allow me to back out gracefully.

                            Similar Taste, similar followings. Shows people who often fave the same tweets as oneself, weighted by congruence. Or people with a high match of followings. If there are great similarities in taste, other favourites/followings by these/of these users would quite probably be of interest too.

                            • Percentage of Followers

                              Calculate the popularity of favorite tweets by the percentage of followers for each Twitter account. Analyzing the "Popular, Rising, and New" tweets, it becomes readily apparent that tweets treated as "funny" merely rise to the top because of the total number of favorites as opposed to the relative exposure of the tweet. A better idea of a tweet's popularity would be to analyze it's favorability amongst its group of followers (as in a Focus Group). Weighted percentages is the only way to do this, thereby allowing the tweeter to gain more exposure amongst his/her peers.

                                      • introduce more tools for managing your Favstar list, such as a delete whole list/start over button.

                                        I loved the idea that my Favstar list could automatically be created from the top 20 people I starred. It was great until I went to make a new list and discovered the only way to regenerate the list was to manually remove everyone from it and do it again. Removing the list from Twitter should IMO purge it from Favstar but it doesn't. Even just a reset button to clear your Favstar.fm list would be good, but more tools to view/add/remove people on the list page would be great.

                                        • provide activity digest email to subscribers

                                          I give and receive a bunch of stars during the day. It would be nice to get a daily summary email with:

                                          1) a list of tweets I have faved, and their star-givers, and
                                          2) a list of my tweets that have been faved by others

                                          Preferably, these could be sorted by number of stars, with higher-ranked tweets appearing at the top of their respective lists.
