Hey, AM

sorry to bother you, but apparently a few users (including myself) are unable to leave a comment on a recent custom chart I made. I have no idea what's causing this, but if I had to make a wild guess, it would be because the previous custom chart I made is currently private. Or, perhaps it's because people tried to comment on it so soon after it was made. Anyways, check it out if you're bored. <3

Hi, thejoj reported something similar last week, I'm checking into this and a number of other issues in the background and there'll be a site update in the next couple of weeks to fix this.

In the past my comments on very recently made charts and newly added albums have not shown up.....but then appeared after I dunno an hour or two. So its probably something to do with this.

Next proposition for you:

We have the option to, you know, just remove ratings we don't like! Someone gave you a rating of 15? Delete that shit!

No room for negative ratings on MY chart! My chart is a happy place!

I find this to be extremely childish.

You can't just try to shield yourself from other people's opinions when they don't agree with you. Like now, for example. I am not agreeing with you. I am presenting negative feedback directing towards your idea.

moderating negativity is unwise and as childish as leaving the negative comment in the first place. I also think it's suspect that two moderators seem to be the only ones with negative comment problems, and wish to have their moderating powers extended. If someone leaves "fuck you," slurs, or some other serious abuse on your wall then users can report it and it's dealt with anyway; I have never seen this happen. As far as negative comments, suck it up!

I didn't see the the comment on your chart, but the one on an_outlaw's was not unreasonable at all. He literally just said that there were great albums left out and mediocre ones present. No slurs. No death threats. Not even a swear.

If someone wants to comment on my chart saying "Your chart sucks and I hate your guts!" then all the power to ya. I could care less. No need to get your panties in a bunch.

I forgot to point out earlier, that there is already a mechanism for dealing with abusive comments, and that is the 'report comment' (exclamation) button which allows people to report abusive comments, and these can then be investigated/deleted centrally. This function could be extended so that the moderators could have the ability to do this as well (i.e. have the ability to moderate comments in the rest of the site and not just on the forums). Maybe that's a way of dealing with these kind of chart comments?

From the February site update

Average rating algorithm
The average rating algorithm has been updated to use the item average instead of the average of all ratings, and a change has also been made to reduce the impact of troll votes on an item's average rating. Previously, outlying votes could disproportionately affect an item's average rating, but now ratings will be excluded if they lie more than three standard deviations from the item average.

These low scores don't affect your average rating, and as for the comments... it doesn't really matter what anyone thinks about your taste in music, so why let it bother you?

The certain user we seem to be talking about here has hit my charts as well. I do not allow feedback on my charts right now because I didn't come here to get into crap with people who seem to be bent on trashing what I put a lot of thought and work into. And that's not fair.

Dude. It's the internet.

Haha, I worked on that. If Naples 2.0 is gonna strike my chart, he'll see this awesome chart there, so he'll be pretty disappointed. But hey, maybe that will make him more angry? 🤔
