Sputnikmusic: Ratings Bugs Fixed

2008-11-30 by Dave de Sylvia EMERITUS | 32 Comments
Hello!

Just a note to let you all know that we've fixed the ratings bugs that have been affecting the site over the past couple of weeks.

New additions to the database can now, once again, be rated (the number of albums had exceeded the number allowed by the database- this problem has been fixed), and there is no longer a block on users' ability to give 5/5 ratings.

Regular newsletter and last.fm services will continue tomorrow as usual.

Dave.

cheers guys, thanks for fixin' that. Not that it really bothered me all that much, but it's sorta nice to be able to give worthy albums a 5 again...as long as that doesn't get too abused.

Don't tell me The Killers new album now has an average rating. It was sort of mysterious the way it was.

I think the most annoying (albeit unimportant) bug to me right now is when you click the red arrows to go the last page of the review it sometimes takes you a few pages ahead of where it's supposed to. Like, if there's 2 pages and you click it, sometimes it'll take you to an empty page 3 or 4 and yeah.

Ratings are supposed to be fair. it's extremely rare that a band's entire discography will warrant a 1, so rating an entire discography a 1 is usually an indicator that the user hasn't actually listened to all of the albums, which defeats the purpose of the ratings system

Me for mod 2k9

that one is a bit of a pain as well, i used to think it was just that the post had been deleted, but I've noticed that the post it refers to is there, it's just directed you to a "phantom page" as it were.

What if there's only one or two albums in their discog? I'm sure there's a minimum but still.

I guess all you'd have to do to avoid that is make one album a 1.5.

Yay, it was annoying with the system always bitching at me.
I barely give out fives and it was never over 10% of my entire ratings.
