Hello everyone! i am quit new to this site so i dont know to much about it yet, but i saw one thing that annoyed me a litle bit. When you rate a game you cannot change wath you gave. Maby a good idea would be to let people rechange wath they rated, though you should NOT get any extra AP for this. Just thought i should make a topic about it to hear some opinions and maby something can be done with it. Tnx

There's only one problem with that. When you rate a game, you are awarded AP. Changing your rating of the game would have to be rigged so that you're not awarded more AP. Other than that, it's a good idea.

I'm not saying we should take away AP for voting on games, I'm saying that you should not get more AP when you change your vote.

Tydus if you really did read my topic
you would found that i said that. mrtim
also mentioned it. But yeah you are right
you should get AP the first time you rate
the game and later if you change opinion
and revote you should (NOT!) gain anymore
AP points.

I did read your topic, I'm just saying it takes time to write a script that disables AP for re-rating.

Sorry for the misunderstanding.

I agree, raxter. My opinion changes all the time, and I cannot count the number of times I have wanted to change my rating on a game. But I think if you gave someone extra AP for changing their opinion, that would lead to spam.

Ohh right Tydus. Then its me who should say sorry lol, Thoght you dident get my point up there. Anyway i guess you are right with the script, also this is not a very urgent upgrade, and the mods got other stuff to think about i guess.

This is a good topic, but this has already been done here, [url]http://armorgames.com/community/thread/407197/you-should-be-able-to-re-rate-games[/url]
Please look at other topics so you don't copy them. Thanks!

but yeah, I think this is a good idea...some people would vote a low number at first time but when they play more or come back to it, they may want to change it to a high-number or vice versa. I think your quite right about not gaining AP for changing the rating of the game but I don't think you should get less of course because you rated a game, you should get AP for it. So this is a great idea, I did do a few accidental votes (like when I voted .5 lower or higher then what I was thinking about)


Indeed, i just did that so many times...But i think on the next site version that ill be implemented
