... I'm Always curious when anyone I know rates a beer really low, or really high. |
It happens when you 'rate' on the app... |
It's when a "rating" with fewer than 75 characters is entered using the app. These are essentially ticks but, for some reason, have been given the name "private reviews". They don't (shouldn't?) count towards the user's rate count and (I think) don't count towards the beer's score. |
ok thnx :) |
The 5s and 0.5s happen mostly when you try to scroll down in the app. |
Originally posted by chriso I'm working this out now. The proposed short term solution to roll out Wednesday is for your shown ratecount to be just viable reviews/full reviews and for your reviews section to paginate in a way where it shows all your reviews. The proposed long term solution is as follows: 1) reviews are sortable by private/public 2) ticks are merged as private ratings 3) ticks on the web site are treated as private reviews 4) eventual web/mobile tick/rate experience merged 5) user profiles show total review count, private review count and public review count 6) beer pages show private review count and public review count and total review count (useful for brewers) 7) all competitive rating lists refer to full review ratecount 8) private reviews are not viewable by visitors to a person's profile Your feedback welcome! |
Allowing private reviews is a really stupid concept. Letting users sort reviews by private/having different numbers for each type of rating is stupid. |
I don't understand the thought behind calling them "private" or making them not viewable by others. I would just call them ticks. |
I don't get the need for this either. Seems like a lot of work to make things worse. If you're allowing someone to "rate" a beer on the site or app, it should count as a rate and be able to be seen. If not, that's what ticks are for (which I've never had any use for anyway). |
Originally posted by TheHOFF43 But that's the whole idea of the app isn't it? To make it easy for people to be able to mark the beers they've had, and ascribe a score to them, without having to go through the rigmarole of writing a full review. You or I might not agree with that but I think that's an argument that's been & gone. What these things entered on the app that aren't full reviews are called is a matter of semantics. FWIW I'm not sure "private ratings" is the best term but there we go. |
Certainly not up to pre ABI ratebeer standards |
