I'm assuming that this idea will be shot down and to be honest I don't even know if it's possible to set a minimum character limit for game comment, but I'm asking for opinions anyways. Personally it just bothers me when i see the same users saying OK, sucks, boring, or good for every single game they play. I'm not saying all comments have to be huge, I'd just like more than one word.
Tell me what you guys/gals think about it(and tell me if it's even possible). Thanks :]
Obviously, but those people who break the character limit with spam will be flagged(at least by me) I feel that it won't completely fix the issue, but it will improve the feedback on games a lot. Developers depend on constructive criticism, suggestions etc. not "sucks" and "AWESOME!"
Either or works honestly. Like I said I'm not expecting everyone to write an essay about each game they play, but a nice 10 or so minimum character counter would be nice. Obviously there'd still be short posts(barely passing the counter) but it'd be much much nicer than a 1 word response imo.
Of course I will have no say whatsoever in what the min. limit would be if one was to be implemented....maybe 20? Whatever it is people will find ways to drag out their comment to essentially say the same thing, but even if a little more criticism or suggestions come from it I think it'd be awesome!
Seriously, every single game I play I see one word posts on just about the whole page. it's pretty lame....they might as well just be still saying "FIRST!" even though they're the 1,727th person to leave a comment.
Its a nice idea, but might turn users away. They don't want to spend so much time per comment. But I think 7 words is the minimum in the rules. But hey no one follows it much... The mods should be feeling [/b]happy[b] about this thread. Eradicating spam...
Or a 50 or a 100 character minimum, spam 1 (because there is masses of spam) normal comments and justice 1. Tie. Episode two coming for next suggestion.
