- <r57shell> guys
- <r57shell> maybe I'm really stupid
- <r57shell> but
- <r57shell> http://tasvideos.org/Movies-Stars.html
- <r57shell> why there movies that actually HAVE stars
- <r57shell> don't have stars icons?
- <Fog_TAS> because you're in the star section?
- <Fog_TAS> seems counter intuitive to have a star when you're in the star section
- * ais523 (~ais523@unaffiliated/ais523) has joined #tasvideos
- <r57shell> no
- <r57shell> it's counter intuitive to NOT HAVE
- <r57shell> star icon for movie that has it
- <DwainiumB> Fog_TAS: I just wanted to make a quick test movie but it just isn't responsive enough
- <DwainiumB> I use 5396 anyway, I'll just wait until everything is fixed.
- <r57shell> Fog_TAS in hope that it will change something, I'll add example from life
- <r57shell> Imagine I have car
- <r57shell> and I wanna buy tires
- <r57shell> studded wheels
- <r57shell> I opening some shop
- <r57shell> for tires
- <r57shell> then, I adding filter
- <r57shell> studded
- <r57shell> and SUDDENLY
- <r57shell> it returns in results
- <r57shell> studded ACTUALLY
- <r57shell> but NO info about they are studded
- <r57shell> it's just hidded "because it's obvious, you had searching studded"
- <r57shell> it makes really big confusion
- <r57shell> I would even call support
- <r57shell> and say, guys, filter "studded" does not work
- <r57shell> and imagine manager
- <r57shell> that will tell bs
- <r57shell> (bullshit)
- <r57shell> "you was searching studded, so info about studded not need, so we removed it in info"
- <r57shell> wtf
- <r57shell> r u mad?
- <r57shell> ok, I can post that all somewhere, if you point where to post that thing
- <Zanoab> what extra information could a star icon provide?
- <Zanoab> (I agree with you for other reasons though)
- <r57shell> I don't need extra info actually
- <Zanoab> my problem is when the inverse happens
- <r57shell> it needs for consistency
- <r57shell> what inverse?
- <Zanoab> what if you don't just want to look at star movies?
- <r57shell> profile of movie should not depend any condition
- <Zanoab> there is no way to tell it is filtered
- <r57shell> it should be OBJECTIVE
- <r57shell> not SUBJECTIVE
- <r57shell> atm, it depends on page where you looking from
- <Invariel> There is a way to tell that it's filtered: Filter+ is a link at the top of the page.
- <Invariel> And, on top of that, the page that links to Movies-Stars says, "For a list of all currently starred movies,".
- <r57shell> as programmer I completely understand current mechanics
- <Zanoab> star movies are the primary links in http://tasvideos.org/Movies.html
- <r57shell> and how can person detect what was filtered
- <Zanoab> *notable
- <Invariel> Also that -- Movies by tier -> Stars.
- <r57shell> BUT! it's not reason to remove things from movie item
- <r57shell> *info
- <Invariel> If I could see the template page for how the Stars page is put together, I'd be able to comment (possibly) on the design decision.
- <Zanoab> I changed my mind
- <Invariel> But I don't seem to be able to.
- <r57shell> also
- <r57shell> from "information" side
- <r57shell> if person starting to ask "what icon does not show"
- <r57shell> that means, that he can gain that info
- <r57shell> and, conclusion is: that info was removed
- <r57shell> that is my answer to question "what extra info could a star icon provide"
- <Invariel> The URL of the page includes "Movies-Stars".
- <Zanoab> and you can't just get to it by accident without knowing
- <r57shell> other example
- <r57shell> imagine site that removes actor from actors lists in movies
- <r57shell> when you search movies with actor
- <r57shell> it's completely mad
- <Zanoab> I would want that though
- <Zanoab> do you know how many actors are in movies?
- <r57shell> but, arguing in that way, you should do that
- <r57shell> I know
- <r57shell> but this does not reason to remove actor from movie profile depending on filter
- <Invariel> So, let's take your example, and change it to what is going on here.
- <r57shell> normal site would highlight it
- <Invariel> You search up the actors in a given movie, and it gives you a page: ABugsLife-Actors
- <r57shell> as item that you was looking for
- <Invariel> And then goes on to list Jerry Seinfeld, etc., etc., etc.
- <Zanoab> yes, let's fill profiles with redudant information which is better served for more unique information
- <Invariel> You know, from the URL, that everyone listed is going to be an actor in A Bug's Life.
- <+TASVideoAgent> New reply by Weatherton (N64gam: Mario Kart 64): http://tasvideos.org/forum/p/422991#422991 [a:1]
- <Zanoab> not everybody reads URL (or even understand their purpose)
- <r57shell> Zanoab it's not redundant, if you look for movies with Leonardo DiCaprio, and in actors list he is omitted
- <r57shell> it makes conclusion, that info is NOT CONSISTENT
- <r57shell> not true
- <r57shell> info - lies
- <r57shell> because he was there
- * Amaraticando (~amaratica@186.222.175.105) Quit (Quit: Leaving.)
- <r57shell> same with movies info
- <r57shell> when it does not show star icon
- <r57shell> it simply lies to user
- <r57shell> that movie does not have star
- <r57shell> because that placeholder
- <r57shell> is actually "awards"
- <r57shell> placeholder
- <r57shell> and when you see that there is no star icon
- <r57shell> you making conclusion that it does not have star award
- <r57shell> that all
- <Invariel> Except that you are on the page dedicated only to those movies that have that award.
- <r57shell> thx, I'm stoping complain, because I'm tired to tell reasonable things to those who just don't listen
- <r57shell> the end
