Oh, your FMA one? May I indicate that I also have voted a 1 for that review, long before? ;) Although mine came with an explanation, chopper said it in only a few words, but basically it says the same as my comment. I quote: It`s a fantasy-show and they used aspects in a world which doesn`t follow o...

Since I`m not able to see pelican`s concerns here, and I do think that the comment-idea has some merits, I think it wouldn`t hurt to keep this idea in mind. EXP already showed an interest in it as well. I think that it would be a waste to let this go until we get to an agreement. Though I leaned to ...

Feel free to message me whenever you get a bad (or good) score from me though ;) But really, I think it will only result in less 'bad' ratings being given. That will tip the balance, imho. When people get 'punished' (by a popup) for giving a bad rating, people will abstain from giving them. That`s m...

For me, one of the main points against this would be that it kinda declares comments as being something like short reviews. Well, that`s not what I meant, actually (although DonGato seems to make it sound like I meant that). The comments are for me like 'short remarks'. That can be a ' shout ' ( zo...

That, or you`ll succeed in that person never again writing a review comment (or never writing negative review comments anymore) because he thinks it`s too much trouble to also bother with popup messages once you vote a low rating. Personally I would dislike it and consider not writing anything anymo...

First suggestion: Don`t discuss things with chopper. Well, technically, I did start by reply, but he had no right to give such bs rating. Don`t reply to him ;) And he has the right, everyone has that right. So, second suggestion: If you get a poor rating from chopper, take a good look at your revie...

Review-ratings

Currently we have: 10 - Excellent 8 - Good 6 - Above average 5 - minimum requirements 3 - needs some improvement 1 - needs complete revision "Meets minimum requirements" sounds like it`s matched a specific template. I would request a rephrase for a few: 8 - Very good. 5 - Average (not bad,...

Because the purpose of the popup is to make Johnny Mouthbreather take an extra quarter second to think "hrm, maybe I shouldn't rate this review as a 3 just because the reviewer didn't like this show, this wonderful show that I would have sex with if it had two legs. Or four." And then he'...

"The visuals on this are outstanding, it's definitely archive worthy." - Person 1 "I thought it was crazy, but crazy in a good way. I definitely recommend it." - Person 2 "This for me goes right up there with FullMetal Alchemist. Matter of fact it kinda feels like a blend o...

Somehow this got sidetracked to reviews instead of voting ... so I`ll split this :)

Why would you get popup-boxes only on bad ratings? I think good ratings are just as handy imho.

@Squirrel What kind of idea do you have with this? Also that button next to the MyList-title, or some other implementation? As for the comments, I probably wouldn`t use it either ... I make notes in notepad and use it later in my reviews if necessary. It might result in a lot less crappy reviews th...

First suggestion: Don`t discuss things with chopper. He writes similar comments to everyone and seeing how he rated 200 reviews on his first rating-day, don`t think you`re the only one. The comments are nearly always offensive, but that`s how things go with chopper. I agree with the squirrel though,...

I think it wouldn`t hurt to have a button 'comments' next to the anime in your MyList when you want to leave a note. It is then up to who you give access to viewing your MyList and your notes. I wouldn`t think tweaking the review-system would make things useful. Especially if you cannot do anything ...

Anime Ratings: - If a user does not have more than 30% of the anime's episodes in their mylist the permanent rating should not be an option, if the anime is completed forcing people to keep a mylist is also not anidb's intention. some people are satisfied enough with keepign a list of their votes. ...

I get the "you didn't get it!" comments on my reviews as well...though with one of those, I also received a 10 in rating. That was a "wtf?" moment to be sure. Oh, you got some comments from chopper too? :D As well, I tend to think that people who enjoy anime are always more like...
