A password reminder/reset page would be extremely useful, I just had to re-install FF after trying out the latest beta, and lost all my cached login info. I cannot find an email with the login and I cannot remember it!!

Hey there- I LOVE the site. Traded many times with it already. I hope the big surprise has to do with PPCCM! Wink

One issue though. When I click on "simple search" or "advanced search," nothing happens. It's link is to the correct pages, but does not go to them. Most interesting...

Keep up the awesome work!

Hrm...another interesting thing. When I try to give feedback for some people, it links to another person's feedback page, though the link is correct. I want to give a bunch of people some good feedback! : )

Cool site, thanks!

Is there an existing way to match up your spares and wants? i.e. list the people who have ones you want and also want ones you have?

If not, could it be added Laughing (I appreciate it might be quite tricky to implement).

It is indeed a pretty cool site.

Here's my wanted/available list.

I second the call for a function to be able to automatically search for people who have cards you want and who want cards you have. Although I guess this might be a bit trickier to code (maybe just look at cards within the same colour group?).

Buying the cards is just becoming frustrating when out of four packs you only get one new card that you didn't already have! I think the rarity scale is a bit unfair - even the stickers that schoolkids collect don't have that (although it did seem that way when you were little).

When you have only one card left to collect, getting that card randomly through buying packs is going to mean buying hundreds... (I can't work out the odds).

I also think this is a very useful site, and have traded successfully. However I have also noticed the problem with feedback not going to the right place etc.

As I said, I think the site is great and don't want to take anything away from it, but I would like to meet face to face with players to trade cards.
I have posted this thread suggesting possibilites for this, but as yet no-one has responded. I am sure some of you must think that having a swap-meet is a good idea, I would very much appreciate it if you would read the thread linked above, and let me know your thoughts.

Thanks in advance.

Another suggestion: could it allow the entering of a number instead of a tick for the cards one has available to swap?

I can't tell without checking my cards whether I can agree to two trades for the same card because I can't tell from your site whether I have two spares.
