      • Prodoc wasn't trying to complain about removing functionality agian though

      • Prodoc
        the problem is that for a lot of things you have to start a discussion on the forum again while it should have been documented

        • 2006-11-01 30546, 2006

      • Prodoc
        saves all of us time but I know it's a PITA to get done

        in my case permissions e.g. (http://www.last.fm/forum/21713/_/182062) I started a discussion about it but just because I realy needed it

        • 2006-11-01 30519, 2006

      • Prodoc
        other things I can't work out as fast as it should I tend to just not use

        • 2006-11-01 30523, 2006

      • Prodoc
        which would be a shame if half of the features don't get used by others as well because of the same reasons

        • 2006-11-01 30502, 2006

      • Prodoc
        yllona, last.fm is up again

        • 2006-11-01 30518, 2006

      • yllona
        yep. :)

        • 2006-11-01 30529, 2006

      • Prodoc can't find a help link at the bottom

        here's a case study for those who are interested

        • 2006-11-01 30538, 2006

      • Prodoc
        go to your 'dashboard'

        • 2006-11-01 30502, 2006

      • Prodoc
        here you'll find 'Latest Personal Recommendation' in the top right corner

        • 2006-11-01 30526, 2006

      • Prodoc
        with just the text 'When someone recommends music to you with the Recommend button, it appears here.'

        • 2006-11-01 30519, 2006

      • Prodoc
        now tell me, where in whoever's name can I find the Recommend button?!

        • 2006-11-01 30503, 2006

      • Prodoc
        where can I find it? where do I have to option to recommend music to people? how do I do it?

        • 2006-11-01 30525, 2006

      • Prodoc
        is it on the site hidden somewhere? should I be using their player? (which I don't)

        if it's only in their player, why does it get presented as a site feature?

      • keschte
        hehe, you made your point ;)

        It can't be done at the moment, and it sure shouldn't be implemented before NGS, but it seemed to me to be the next logical step after that
