Here are my "Suggestions on Improving Website Suggestions". Please read each point, and evaluate it on its own merit. Thank you.

• Keep your suggestions concise, short, and simple. Long paragraphs are difficult to read, thus obscuring any sensible suggestions they may contain.

• Use a list of "Bullet Points", such as this one. That way, each point can be examined and addressed more easily.

• Avoid directing suggestions against individuals or groups. People get defensive when criticized, even when the criticism has merit.

• Determine if the suggested course of action could be more easily handled by you at your end of the connection. For example, some people have complained about the brightness of a website, when there are brightness controls within arm's reach of their own keyboards.

• Learn something about the operating system used by the website. Some suggestions are impossible to implement without a full overhaul of the system, while others are not even system features.

• Refrain from the use of profanity; even one "F-Bomb" in an otherwise helpful suggestion can render the entire post unworthy of attention.

That should be enough for now.
