Another suggestion: The confirmation screen should show the comment that the user wanted marked or unmarked as rude.
Yes, the level can go overboard. Basically, that meter is normally for a different purpose, but it was the closest thing I could find to the functionality I needed. In the context of this system, consider anything over 1 or 2 to be a problem, and 10 is absolutely shameful. Anything over 10⌠well, a psychiatrist be in order!
By the way, how did you pull off the 11/10 rudeness level already? Marking your own posts I assume?
t would be nice to have an ignore user button if thatâs possible. Not that Iâd ignore any of the wonderful members we have here. But it would solve a lot of problems I would think.
Thanks for doing this. :) I have noticed this increase in rudeness, and it has made me not want to comment as much on things.
Nobody likes me around here. :cry:
But yes, I marked my own posts. Iâm at 20/10 now. I doing a bit of Q/A testing for you. I wanted to see if a crash would occur if my rude meter went too high. However, Iâm getting tired of hunting down my own comments to mark myself down.
You know whatâs funny? Sometimes on the confirmation page, I see an ad for âBest Tactical Flashlight. 800 Lumen MilTac Survival Torch. Same Tech Used by U.S. Navy Seals.â Can we mark that rude too?
Very nice! but what if a users start to abuse the Rude! button and reports a large numbers of posts from the same user? Is there a limit of how many rude reports can someone submit in a day?
Maybe implement a ârude validityâ rule, X amount of rude reports to score a rude point?
Hope this makes sb job easier.
Question, does the button have a second confirmation page like the Mark as SPAM button? I sometimes press the wrong button specially when on my smartphone. Thanks!
Iâve done that as well Alex. Thatâs an excellent suggestionâŚ
Yeah. You can try it by marking yourself as rude.
Oh, I see it does! Thanks!
As a Canadian, this make me feel right at home.
Sorry I canât put it on the confirmation screen, but I did manage to display the comment with a link after confirming, so you can click back to it and un-flag it.
Ha! Sorry about that one. Not an ad that I personally placed. :disappointed:
I saw something I thought quite rude
It displayed really poor attitude
You can say what you want
But deliver a taunt
And youâre liable to start up a feud
Itâs shame when these things must be viewed
Because personal jabs are so crude
It is never alright
To go starting a fight
And it always destroys the good mood
Our enlightenment should be pursued
So that none of us feel devalued
A too hasty reply
Can make things go awry
Let us try to keep anger subdued
Good idea, how about for every rude point you give, you get one yourself, that will slow down pushing the rude button just because you donât like the poster :smiling_imp:
Cheers David
Thanks Jack! You rock.
A brilliant and great idea sb. One question, should we use this going forward, or go back and mark rude posts that have occurred recently?
