Hey @RizePoint_Product,

Sorry for the confusion!

Vote limitations are automatically set by your trust level, which is determined by your activity on the forum. This has been the first time we’ve run into anyone hitting their “two votes remaining” limit, as members usually reach the next trust level as they continue to use the forum over time. All users essentially have unlimited votes, as long as they stay active on the forum. We’ve manually bumped you up to the next level to ensure you have more votes.

That said, we do proactively monitor Top Feature Requests and update topic threads accordingly as new features launch. To be completely transparent, there is a 30 day window applied to every topic, which does close any topic that has not received any new votes or replies within the last month. But we do periodically reopen topics that we know the community is still interested in.

@dvaliao Thank you! Good to know.

Re: the monitoring of topic threads, I do appreciate updates when new features are launched, but it’s much more valuable to me–and, based on the comments on a lot of threads, to the users of this forum–to get updates prior to that point. Ex: Feature added to roadmap/Feature rejected, Feature under development and/or Feature slated for Q# of QYear], and then launched.

There are a lot of feature request threads on this forum that are 2+ years old with 1k+ votes and no response from the Figma team. Reading through those threads it’s clear that the lack of communication and transparency makes people feel hopeless, frustrated, and sometimes outright angry. While it’s good to know that feature requests are being monitored by the Figma team, as a Figma user it feels like our requests are being shouted into an uncaring void.

As a community manager I’m sure you’re already aware of this sentiment and have communicated it upwards to no avail. So, if it helps, to whatever suit on the Figma team makes these decisions, please know that your users are BEGGING you to talk to us. We don’t need answers right away, we just need to know that you’ve heard us, you understand the problem(s), and that you’re working on it–or if you won’t work on it, why. Your userbase is already feeling trepidation ahead of the Adobe acquisition; being transparent with us would really help shore up our confidence in the long-term viability of Figma and restore goodwill.

We hear you. We always pass along our top voted feature requests to the right teams, but we sadly don’t always have the green light to disclose the expected timeline.

Our team has advocated to provide the community with a clear roadmap, which we hope can be launched in the near future!
