Hey, is anyone monitoring that list?
There's plenty of outdated suggestions.
For instance:
Center on Announcement
Ability to buy sand/water/rough gems from merchants
Dwarf Inventory Management
Owned Barracks
Civilian weapons
Incorporate combat text
Specific weapon selection
Meeting Area Subcontrol
Oh my.. Even "Doctors/Hospitals" is still there almost on top.

I went through it a while ago. See this comment and the few following:

And I still haven't seen any rough gems sold in caravans, nor water.

could someone please clue me in to what the hell is going on? 

[Sowelu]

Um, basically there's a list of what features we most want to see.  It's just for reference and it doesn't control Toady's actions in any way, but it might be kind of inspirational.

[TolyK]

ah, ok.
so I was right in my assumption.

wow only 3 votes?
I put in about 23 when I first tried 

[zilpin]

Going through the list, I'd say time is due for an admin to wipe the slate clean, and let people submit new.
That is the best way to get community attention to something that now appears to be dead as it stands.

[Silverionmox]

The list is still active, vote counts are still changing. The only entries that need to be cleansed are the ones that are implemented. Old votes are valuable too.

"Dwarves buyable with embark points. 7 dwarves" is a duplicate of "Additional embark options" and should be removed.

[Durian Hohlades]

I suggest you stop working on a fricking cake press and get your fingers on the army arc which is promising serious and most FUN

*cheers* ^^

[Silverionmox]

You can't be serious. What are they fighting for if there's no cake press?  How are they going to interrogate there prisoners? What boiling substance are they going to pour on invaders before lava is available?

[Kogut]

Eggs, eggs, eggs. - implemented according to devlog
Source Code - is not valid suggestion
Improving the game - is just completely useless

Voted quite a long time ago, but just checked the list to find that none of my votes are changing.

Improved Mechanics - I love doing stuff with power. Having more stuff to do with power is awesome.
Remember Trade Agreements - A total convenience feature, but a major one for some of us. I make dozens of requests every year for animals, exotic foods, rare metal and stone, and other things that are hard to produce large amounts of locally. I make the same requests every single time.
Standing Production Orders - Stockpiling a thousand of every plant and booze type is easy. Keeping empty barrels around in such a situation is not.

Do you mean that the votes didn't change for you, or that you don't want to change your votes?

You do know that there's no point in voting for the first and third of those ever since Toady made the new Dev Page that included those things because of popular demand, right?  There's no point in putting your votes in for Toady to do something he's already said he would do.

Umm... You do realize that people can change their 3 votes later if they change their mind or if one of their voted suggestions become obsolete? Right?

Deleting votes, even after period of time has passed, basically means that their vote did not count. And I'd suspect many voters would not think to check back, only to discover that all votes had been reset...    I'm sure there's more than a few votes by fans who've not participated much on the forums in months or years, so some might not find out about the reset to resubmit their votes.
