| Sep 21, 2010 at 12:16 | comment | added | gWaldo | @John Gardeniers I'd also read the last sentence to imply that despite people not reading our carefully worded missives and warnings, we still catch flack when they break things that we'd warned about. Thus, we have to cater to the lowest-common-denominator... Thanks for clarifying; I think we're on the same page! DOWN WITH NOTIFICATION BAR!!! | |
| Sep 21, 2010 at 12:15 | comment | added | gWaldo | @John Gardeniers I am in favor of a dismissable notifications bar. My alternative to those who would want to look up what was announced is a notifications page. I fixed the formatting of my quoteblock to hopefully reflect that it contains a sub-quote. I have reread your earlier comment and I think we've suffered from hearing different things from read text. I read the second sentence as "So, what if someone dismisses..." to mean 'how do we cater to someone who dismisses it', where now I think you are saying "So What" as in "Who cares if they dismiss it". | |

| Sep 21, 2010 at 0:43 | comment | added | John Gardeniers | @gWaldo, from reading your answer I get the impression you are defending that blue bar, yet in your comment you appear to be under the impression that I am in favour of it, which you will notice from my previous answer I most certainly am not. Either one or both of us are mistaken. | |
| Sep 20, 2010 at 12:14 | comment | added | gWaldo | @John Gardeniers, I'm sorry, but I can't be in the business of spoon-feeding information to everyone. The core audience, I think, will either not care about "what did that say", will read an unusual notification before clicking a 'dismiss' button, and knows where to discover information. Sure there are plenty of 'click first, ask questions later' types, but you honestly cannot cater to everyone, and right now, that blazing blue banner (in SF) seems to be annoying the core of that community. | |

So what if someone dismisses the bar without reading about it? We work in a filed where this is the norm (e.g. who ever reads a EULA?). | |
| Sep 17, 2010 at 14:36 | comment | added | squillman | Thanks! I've edited the MSO question again to bump it. I'm going to put a kickin bounty on it soon if I don't get any more feedback. Such a simple thing.... | |
