When new ideas are posted, the process of checking first to see if it's been posted before could be easily streamlined if there were 1), a dedicated (read: required) space for the poster to enter a keyword(s). (I also suggest if no keyword is entered then the post not be included, you know, in the name of efficiency and workload. It shouldn't have to fall to you guys - I mean you do enough and I think if people can't get it right then it shouldn't be included. Some people are just too lazy and that's just too bad for them. My opinion only LOL). Taking it one step further, if you find a match on a keyword, you could click to expand that idea to enter an addition or variation to it. This in turn will also make it easier for (I always say you guys cuz as a whole I don't know whether it's moderators or administrators or other) for you guys to go through and see the new entries which ideally would be bold. In doing so that variation is now automatically included in the Master list. And while I'm thinking about it, when entering a previously UNpublished idea people could just enter it directly under the category for their keyword. This then makes your guys' job mostly done by itself. All you have to do is go through, check it, delete, or add to other keywords etc. Doesn't have to all be moved around and separate lists made and posted blah blah blah.
And 2), add to this a Search button. It then becomes a snap to check before posting your own new idea.
There is no uniformity to the 'previous ideas' section as it stands now so it's very cumbersome and time consuming to check first. It also takes away from crushing time LOL.
You know as more and more ideas are added, that list will become very long and if there's not some sort of organization to it people won't bother checking, but say they did LOL. So guess what? It'll then rebound to you good people. For all I see there's way too much work to be done on here as it is. I honestly don't know how you guys get any play time in. I think you need to hire secretaries LOL.
I'm speaking from experience about people not reading it as I'm one of those people that sends lengthy texts and emails and so many people, like even my family, won't read my texts if there are more than three or four lines. So I really wouldn't expect people to go through a list that's not easy to skim over.
I am queen of organization. But as I get older I get lazier and/or it's not so important as it used to be LOL. 0n my headstone it will read: Terri leaves to us a messier world.
PS the Ideas Library links don't work, that is except the first one that takes you there. LOL
{Oh boy, I already go round in circles enough all over this site}. LOL

Hello @messenabout
This was a very interesting read for me as I'm in charge of moderating the ideas posted by community members. Not here in Candy Crush community but in Soda community ๐
I'm in favor of a key words system. If it'd help handle ideas in a easier way. Especially in a situation where members post a slight variation of a pre-existent idea when they could expand the main idea so I don't have to decide whether to close an idea or not based on the originality value
From my experience, some ideas need to be studied a bit more because some members tend to be too much vague and offer little details or and it takes some time to get to the point. like, it's not always clear in what way the idea would improve the game.
Especially when the members are not very fluent in English and use different terms to refer to something in the game. The same feature or booster can come in different names because maybe they're translated differently in their game.
There is a search tool bar in ideas section but from what I could see, it searches for key words in ideas titles and not the bodies of the ideas. So it's a bit limited.๐
I started to manually curate a master list with an ordered index of ideas with keywords, in Soda community. I basically gave ideas more descriptive titles, so it's easier for members and me as well to see what has been already suggested or declined without clicking open previous ideas each time.
Not gonna lie, it took a lot of time to create and update the master list the first time . it was a jungle of posts, but now it takes way less to check on new ideas and add the valid ones to the list. I started to notice less duplicate ideas, thankfully. They're not totally gone but still ๐คฉ
