"Similar ideas" annoyance

110 points posted to IdeaStorm by programatix Mar 29

Hi,

Everytime we post an Idea, the "Similar ideas" page is displayed. This page is good. But instead, the Ideas that are shown here are not anywhere near the new Idea that we are trying to post.

Dell should improve the "Similar ideas" detection code or instead of helping, it annoys people. When it annoys people, people do not even check if the Ideas are similar, they just click the "No thanks" button on the spot.

Take for example, for this current post that I am posting, the "Similar ideas" are,
1) Pre-Installed Linux | Ubuntu | Fedora | OpenSUSE | Multi-Boot
2) Pre-Installed OpenOffice | alternative to MS Works & MS Office
3) Have Firefox pre-installed as default browser
