Database Feedback

The Stackable flag is there... I suppose you mean on the recipe lists, to show some sort of indicator on the item description to reflect stackability, correct?

The only real problem there is selecting an appropriate symbol that people would not be confused by. On the Item description we have the word shown... but you have to pull up the individual item to see it.

We decided to NOT show stacking items on the ingredients of recipes because one starts to include TOO much information and it just gets really confusing. It just requires that you do a bit more research and check the individual items in a recipe.

just a short message to say a big thank you for all the job done

i really like the DB features, especially :
. combines exposed as a tree
. link between items/combines
. search of an item in the database

continue like this, don't be discouraged by a few people that are never happy. critic is always easier than doing something

Well done, indeed.

And, I wanted to add - it is *not* easier to give constructive, detailed criticism than it is to say "Yep! I like it! It's great!"

It's not a matter of the few, disgruntled folk being irritable and disatisfied, but it *is* a matter of those with specific ideas and helpful comments being caring and concerned enough to come forward with them. It's not at all about not being able to satisfy everyone.

Kudos to both those who found the database to be lacking nothing *and* to those who came up with specific and helpful suggestions. Thoughtful, constructive criticism can only strengthen the amazing efforts of the EQT staff.

Again, I say - Well done!

This is the BEST

I am a fairly new user so can't compare this DB to the "old one", but I must say this one is an incredible feat. I've built databases and they're not fun.

There's a wealth of info here that doesn't require a paid membership to access like another site (name not mentioned on purpose). I've been able to Master 4 different skills just from the trivials lists and am getting near GM baker. Any time I'm shopping and see something that says 'tradeskills' I can pop in and see what it's for. I can easily see what I need in combines and sub-combines for any recipe. I can print out any recipe with all combines listed, and if I think the list is too long I can copy, paste to Word and edit to my heart's content. I can search any or all words in the name of an item, or do an advanced search if I'm just not sure what I want but I do know what I want it to do.

Need I go on? I could. For hours. Ok, pages.

Let's just say I love all of you. Not for what you've given all of us. Rather for the Dedication this required to bring to the web, and still requires to maintain.

Love to you all!
