QJ.NET Feature: Comment Fixes

Well, after a rough and tumble debut yesterday, we've managed to get most of the issues and problems with the new comment system sorted out. Just so everyone is in the loop, here's the changes that were made today:

Accurate Votes: When you leave a positive vote on a comment, the stars actually increase instead of going down, and vice versa.
New Comments start with 2.5 stars: To keep brand new comments from being hidden because they had a zero star rating, all new comments will begin with two and a half stars.
Sort Chronologically: The default setting for comments is to view them in order of when they were posted - oldest first, newest last. If you want the comments to rank in order of rating, change the Sort By option to "highest rated".
2 Star Filter: The default threshold for hiding comments is now 2 stars. This will automatically hide comments with a rating below that of a new post. This can be adjusted or turned off by choosing an option from the drop down menu.
Readable Text: Many of you complained that the comment text was hard to read - it has been sharpened and darkened to hopefully correct that problem.

It's advised that you clear your cache and QJ related cookies in order for these changes and corrections to take full effect. Additionally, a few more tweaks and requests will roll out next week, such as:

Leaving fields unfilled will NOT make you lose everything you've typed - until then, be sure to enter a name, topic title, and comment.
The color palette will be darkened and adjust to make things not as bright and to match the rest of the site better.
The ability to vote for your own comment will be disabled

Thanks for all your input and patience with our new comment system. We can already tell that it's had a positive impact on the quality of comments being made and we hope you enjoy it as well. If you have more comments or suggestions on how to improve the system, let us know below!

# yay — Guest 2006-10-13 11:03

Keep up the good work QJ and keep the news coming

# zomgggggggg please 5 star me — Guest 2006-10-13 11:07

Pl3as3, lol.

# Good work — Zerow 2006-10-13 11:11

I really like this new comments system, so it's nice to see it's functioning better now.

# Three cookies — Guest 2006-10-13 11:12

Three cookies are required to gain a 5 star rating.

# Yea It's Pretty Nice — ground_sniper 2006-10-13 11:15

With The Rate At Which Everythings going in the homebrew community this is just another helping factor in getting word out to everyone about something very well done good work QJ

# A good solution — Guest 2006-10-13 11:24

Finally a good solution has been found to getting rid of all those damn 1st post comments etc.

A great new addition to QJ.net

Thank you

# A little flawed — dylr91 2006-10-13 11:55

You should be able to sort it by newest first, so you don't have to deal with comments 4 days.

# Yay — Bad Intentions 2006-10-13 11:56

Now no more "OMG FIRST POST" stuff. Good call QJ.

# Great! — Zector 2006-10-13 12:53

Love the new system. It helps out filter out of all the...um, "uneducated" posts that people spam on these comment. Only problem I could see, is in a fanboy flame war... All parties will probably nuke eachothers ratings.. =\

It will work itself out.. xD

# Oh and... — Zector 2006-10-13 12:55

I would like to eventually see an edit box for those who are registered, for preventing... Uh... This! If possible

Great Job QJ staff.

# Anyone want to see the newest updates? — Guest 2006-10-13 15:08

# Nice System But... — CHUCKINGROCKSATSPACESHIPS 2006-10-13 17:43

why can't I leave a comment via the PSP browser?

# Good question... — Guest 2006-10-13 21:05

...might be because this system is Java Script based. We'll look into that and see if there's something that can be done...

# . — benlisquare 2006-10-13 22:55

damn i hate the new qj comments system, now i have to click on every \/ its very annoying, i like to read everyone's comments

# ideas — Guest 2006-10-13 23:05

ideas for more improvments:

Filter out unregistered comments in the same way as the star ratinf filter

Report messages which are inapropiate or bad language etc

Use smilies like happy and sad faces to enhance messaging.

# good ideas — Dremth 2006-10-14 03:13

Those are some very good ideas. I completely agree.

# No you don't... — Guest 2006-10-14 09:49

If you'd taken the time to actually read or think about it, you'd know you can turn the star filter off and it'll stay that way and you can read everything. Geez...
