I just reflect how it feels to get such bad feedback without any real feedback in it.
Feedback includes many types of input but not: Disliking it because of personal opinion, because service x rated your favorite news page badly.
My feedback to that emotional feedback was just my emotion back to it.
If we wanted everyones opinion on MBFC yes then we would loved this response from you. But feedback is not just MBFC BAD!!!!!!!!
What if theoretically give you feedback on your math test: "0 Points Because ITS BAD!!!!!" Then you would think why was it bad? The formula ? The results? The readability? Or were my books that i read bad?
Normally when faced with simply "its bad!!!" You reflect. If i got a 0 on my math score with no explanation id imagine I did so insanely bad, that I need to rethink how I did it entirely.
Maybe stop removing comments and see about finding better sources, that also happen to reflect what your users want.
I did not remova any comments? Those removed comments are renoved by mods of the community.
But the issue is there is no other alternative that has an ordered and automatable access.
Then the other option was to have a community made "source" but that brings up the issue with "User x is not fit to contribute", "Remove the bad rating on site xyz.com" etc. tadah back to the start with the "crying" ablut topic x.
We are still working on such an system as this could at least reduce the shitstorm about having no option to alter the rating. But its not final that decision.
What was the issue with the previous system, or rather, lack thereof?
