Is there any limit to the number of ideas a user can vote on?
On uservoice, by limiting the user to ten votes, we can get the user to really think about priorities.

We plan to implement this feature soon
I actually didn't like UserVoice (we thought about using them, but the fact that they limit conversations (votes) to 10, was a no go for us) I guess UserVoice is meant strictly for features and bug fix requests...
We was looking for a more... community/conversation type solution (We want to engage with our users, and have them engage with us as much as possible) So we thought having a limit to this would not be a good idea.
However if your aim is to use UserEcho as strictly a Feature/BugFix request, I can see the benefit in that... having quality feedback vs quantity... however I notice that even I was reluctant to post because it "Costed" something...
Also users don't get their currency back till you "Close" the case, and I assume that no other users can comment after a case is closed? Further limiting the conversation...

It's will be optional and admins be able to set limit in the settings, will be disabled by defaultWe was looking for a more... community/conversation type solution (We want to engage with our users, and have them engage with us as much as possible) So we thought having a limit to this would not be a good idea.

Are you saying each user can only vote on 1 idea? That can't be right... but above you say "One feedback, one vote at this moment"... I'm confused.

Users may vote on unlimited number of ideas, but only 1 vote for each.
It's not possible to give 5 votes for one idea.

Thanks. Is there a way to set a limit for votes?

No, just 1 vote for each feedback, and ability to vote on all.
This is critical for you? To have this feature ?

Well I don't know if I need it yet. I haven't launched our feedback forum yet... But it seems like a good idea to have a limit. Like the other guy said, limiting votes makes users think about priorities.

Is this a feature you plan on adding, at least as an optional setting?
