I think it would be cool if, like ProgArchives, you could sort how you can see someone's rating, whether it by ratings, by chronologically, or alphabetically. Just a suggestion.

And yes, I am IMPF. I was unsatisfied with all the ratings I did on my old account, so I instead decided just to start all over again with a new account. Hope you guys are okay with that.

I'm pretty sure it's sorted by rating, and then again in chronological order.  But yeah, I think more advanced sorting options would be cool.

And you didn't have to make a new account.  I think you can ask the admins to just delete a rating.

Yes we have a batch delete option, that can delete all ratings by a user.

Regarding your question, it�s on our webmasters to-do list that the sort function is implemented at some point. There is no date set for it. We all work for free here, so things like that happen when the responsible party has time.Smile

Oh. I didn't know that. But I don't think I want to do that, since my new account accidentally got both The Dwelling and Goat Horns in the all-time top 5. ;)

Careful.  Making multiple accounts to manipulate ratings could be banable.

Yes if that�s what this is about, consider yourself warned. Otherwise do carry on and enjoy the site. We�ve had people who forgot their password or other things in the past and therefore have two accounts, but if those account are used for ratings abuse, it�s not something we will take lightly.

Can I just ask why, if you weren't happy with any of your ratings, why you didn't just alter those ratings by clicking what you wanted to rate an album as now? You can update a rating at any time you know, no need to request a rating deletion or make a new account.

First of all, no my intention was not to manipulate ratings, getting two of my favourite albums in the all-time top 5 was purely unintentional. If you want, you can clear all the ratings from my old account, so as to not mess up any of the averages.

Second of all, I wanted to change the ratings of several dozen albums, as well as delete all my ratings for singles, but since there is currently no way to delete/mass edit any ratings on your own, I decided to just make a new account.

Fair enough. Can you copy/paste the link to your old account and I�ll make sure all ratings are deleted from that account.

Thanks Liam, but I want IMPF2112 to verify that it�s the correct account before I delete anything.
