Im not so sure about that Peter - I and many others have for years suggested that the 'hot matches' would be so much more useful if, instead of the tree originator's name, they gave the name of the possible hotmatch. This would save trawling 7 pages or so each time of people who turn out to be no connection whatsoever. Despite the usual replies from GR, nothing has ever been done to make the system so much easier and less frustrating for us.

I would contact them. Despite what you may hear GR are open to suggestions. Unfortunately when they then introduce improvements as a result of these suggestions, people complain that the tree has changed and that they were never asked for their opinion.....!

You could try contacting them, but in my experience I wouldn't hold your breath for them to do anything useful with this site. Kath. x

If you could see the date that each memeber of someones tree was added to that tree - do Genes have a suggestion board of things we'd like them to be able to do or is it worth emailing them? Rebecca
