don't understand what the all-in button is for

[damon]

not sure if i should press it or not....

what does it mean?

[KaoruDev]

It means that you told the author you are interested. I changed it to opt-ed. Let me know if you know of a better phrase!

but i was the author, so i didn't understand why i needed a button to opt
in to anything.

Oh yeah that makes sense, okay! thanks

[damon]

now it says "opted in" but it should not be a button, imho. it should just say "your idea" with no button (or something).

unless you want to distinguish between the idea submitter and the project implementers. In that case, you should present the "i'm interested" button just like everyone else to allow someone to both submit an idea and commit to work on it.

in my case, i have submitted two ideas but do not plan to work on either one of them. thus, I'm just a submitter but not an implementer/project joiner, per se.
