isn't this idea a sum of all most voted ideas on brainstorm? makes not much sense to vote for it...

Do you really think you are the first one to ever even consider this idea? There are an uncountable number of developers working on the GNU project, the Linux kernel, all of the applications included in the repos, and Ubuntu itself. Do you really believe they wouldn't make their respective projects "perfect" if they could?

Wtf people, read the description..
Although the title is misleading because you think some idiot posted it, even if you later read that it is an example.
Well anyway, good idea.

Yeh, the description pretty much sums up the problem with brainstorm. Too many ideas are not really ideas at all. More like obvious requests which get voted up because they are so obvious that nobody is going to disagree.
So, can we now just mark all those "ideas" as duplicates of this idea? ;)

I had to read the description about a dozen times to try to figure out what the idea actually is.
Am pretty sure I have it now, so please indulge me while I summarise; Any ideas that are obvious (as yekcim says "too logical") should hidden. Reasoning is that there is no point having them as candidates for votes because, as tromboneman suggests, all developers are already trying to "make their respective projects perfect".
Must admit I'm getting pretty tired of seeing the same suggestions being made over and over. Don't know haw many times "Speed up booting" and "better wi-fi support" have been suggested. :-( There have also been a tediously large number of "include ver Y instead of ver X" suggestions. :-\
Vote = +1

@glibik: I had to read it as well a couple of times...
@yekcim: maybe you could edit your initial post and clarify on some aspects thus making you idea more puplar by easy reading :-)
If Idea Is
hide ideas which are common sense ideas (like create best OS ever)
then
Vote = +1
else
please explain idea better...

Sweet 8 lbs 7 oz. baby Jesus... I have seen this post up here all day and had no idea what the hell the guy was talking about. Then, in a poof of magic, my third eye opened and I understand. Its beautiful in fact. Yes, I agree, we should hide posts which are too vague. This is just a little too Zen though. +1

This idea is too logical!

I kind of agree with this but when you see that the most popular idea ever is "Fix Suspend and Hibernate" you kind of think that is too logical, but it seriously need to be voted for so it gets fixed. Hide those "too logical ideas" would hide a problem that really needs to be addressed.

Who gets to hide the "too logical ideas"?
Also, too logical ideas can still be useful. For example if "Speed Up boot time" gets 3000 votes and "Better wi-fi support" gets 3 this might suggest that speeding up boot time should be prioritized over better wi-fi support.
Perhaps instead of having "too logical" ideas, we could have difficulties. We could approximate the priority of an idea as the number of votes divided by the difficulty, so that a semi-popular idea that requires a one line config change is ranked above "make Ubuntu perfect".

Big +1. And I suggest merging with http://brainstorm.ubuntu.com/idea/4730/
Some of these ideas are specific enough though..
like: support wireless better means nothing.
Support Atheros wireless better is ok.

While this simplicity of brainstorm is great (just vote up or down), I think we can also have a bunch of advanced tags to redirect the entry.
For example:
Application bug (for application specific bugs)
Application feature
Too Obvious (as per this entry)
...

Nice idea, but next time you'll chose a better title. There are thousands of ideas, it's a matter of respect helping people to understand what you mean as easily as possible. If you don't manage to make it clear, you just deserve a poor score.

Give us the right to vote for "already done", "not an idea" etc. just as the developers can. If any of those would have an important score, the idea would be closed/hidden.
