Filter System bugged

[Septimus]

When I use the filter system to search for a resources with Director Cut rating from mod. The filter system work fine since it was showing only Director Cut resources.

However, when I use the filter system to search for rating 5,4,3,2,1 and non-rated resources. It show up all those resources with higher rating as well.

For example, when I search rating 4 resources. It show rating 5 and 6 resources as well.

Could the filter been fix so it would only show the resources with the current rating ?

Its the 'Minimum' mod/people rating.

 

[Septimus]

Well, it doesn't function the way it should be.

 

[Pyritie]

Sure it does. The "minimum" is 4, for example, so you get anything 4 or higher.

Sure it does. The "minimum" is 4, for example, so you get anything 4 or higher.

When something is Miminum, everything larger is true.
When something is Maximum, its everything smaller thats the true.

Also, If you searched Mimimum 4, Resources Rated '4' will show up too.

 

[Septimus]

Well, the filter system to search is way to off right now.

For example, when I search for min rating 4 map. It show up rating 5 and 6 map.

The only filter that work correctly was rating 6.

...It works exactly how it is supposed to. If it says minimum, as everyone else has said, it will get that rating, and all above it. Of course it only shows 6 rated maps when you search director's cut, there is no rating above 6.
As for your proposed method, it is absolutely pointless. Why would you want to have only a set quality, and not maps better? There's no reason to search for only a set quality when you could get better.

Well, able to search the exact rating would make it far easier for mini moderator and moderator to do further inspection.

 

[donut3.5]

Further inspection of what?
Trends and stuff that mods would have to examine are usually on a user by user basis, not a rating by rating basis.

Sometimes the old approve resources should be check once again. Especially those approve resources with rating 1.

And it doesn't harm to have a 100% accurate search.

 

[donut3.5]

It is 100% accurate, it does 100% of what it says: Minimum rating.
It couldn't hurt, sure, but when it's as impractical as it is, there's really no point in implementing.

[Septimus]

Who said it was useless ? The rating 1-3 map won't even be visible when the filter been used, making the filter system almost pointless.

 

[donut3.5]

..If you set it to a four minimum rating, then yes. But you can set it to lower.
And your system is useless because it has almost no practical function. It has maybe one purpose, but nothing really worth implementing.

[Septimus]

I know it can be set to lower, but the lower the rating is. The more inaccurate the filter was.

Instead of setting it min mod rating, it should be mod rating to give it a better result. The filter make the searching of non-rated and rating 1-3 map by mod to be difficulty and tough.

I am sure the time need to fix the filter system won't be that long.

 

[donut3.5]

That wont be an improvement at all, however. Maybe if there were both minimum and exact, but having just exact would be foolish. Hell, you still haven't given a very practical reason for implementation
Until you give a reason why this would be useful, I don't see this being implemented. And no, it wont really be a useful filter for moderators as I explained before. Trends occur more on a user by user basis, and if a user wants their rating reevaluated, we have a forum dedicated to that where users can request moderation or remoderation.
Of course, this is just my opinion. If Rui sees this beneficial, then that's his choice. I'm just voicing my opinion on the matter.

[Septimus]

Well, there should be a max and exact rating filter for it.

 

[Pyritie]

Why would anyone want to search for crappy maps?

 

[Samuraid]

Masochism?

 

[Hakeem]

Who cares, they might. And when they do, they should be able to. Why not let them?

Two fields:

• Minimum rating.
• Maximum rating.

Is that so hard?

 

[Avex]

Not always, when i search for Campaign maps, I get page 1, but when I click page 2, it gives me Normal maps.

 

[Pyritie]

Why did the file size thingy get removed?
