Default Requesting All Coders - Please Follow a Protocol While Posting New Products

Requesting vBulletin Coders : While posting new products, the first 500 odd charaters hardly tell us about what is the new product is all about. So, when we search for new posts and when we move the mouse over the threads, the preview information shown in the yellow popup hardly tells us about the basic functionality/purpose of the product...

Wouldn't it be nice that first 500 odd characters could be reserved for telling us about the functionality of the product, so that we dont have to click on each thread to know about the products. This would also help in reducing some server loads as well as reduce the time wasted in browing through all the products at user level.

Here is my little suggestion to vb.org:

First 500 characters could be strictly reserved for Description of the Product. vBulletin.org can easily implement a synopsis field into there system so that when a coder is posting a new product, he is encouraged to enter the description for product, which can then be easliy shown at the top of the first post by making a small template edit.

Thanks
