Btw, I'd like to report a bug here. It's a bug when editing comment in feedback section of a mod, like this:


There are strange numbers & words showing up like that when editing a comment with quotation marks ("). Last time I edited a comment, such strange numbers & words didn't show up so probably this only happened just recently.

I think that's all I could report today. I hope that this could be fixed soon, as it's kind of tiring to delete the strange numbers & words each time I need to edit comment.

Oh & there's also this error when I tried to click "Update" after editing a comment:


As there were strange codes when editing a comment, I decided to temporarily solve it by doing copy-paste on my comment. & that error showed. Even when I did a try again & left the strange codes untouched, that error still happened. I wonder if it has something to do with url & video features on comment section that caused the error to show up when trying to edit comment.

Thanks for the quick fix. Now edit function works properly & the strange codes don't show up anymore.

Btw recently when I tried to browse maps, I just noticed that the rate (stars) is not visible anymore.


The disappearance of the rate/ stars when browsing maps probably could make members/ visitors have difficulty in finding favourite maps based on rate. I know that it can be sorted based on the popularity, but the rate/ stars probably could also affect whether members/ visitors will try the maps/ mods (like for example, I usually prioritize on giving some tries on new maps, & maps with the rate of at least 2 stars or above. & as for maps with 2 stars & below, I'll take a look at people's comments & reviews first to check if the maps simply are just insufficient of rate or just almost unplayable except with god mode).

Probably it would be better if the rate is still visible, for example like this:


Well, I think that's my suggestion for now. As this feature was also helpful on the old gamemaps back then, bringing it back to the new gamemaps probably would be helpful for many members & visitors when they want to look for mods/ maps based on the popularity & the rate at the same time.

@Mr. iLL:
Thanks for the update of the rating. That helps much. Btw, is it possible to make the sort based on popularity not only show order based on number of views but the combination of number of views & rating instead? I noticed when sorting based on popularity like this:


The rating there is still randomized but the number of views are in order (from the bigger to smaller number). Probably if the sort based on popularity also sorts the rating it would be better, like the one on the top of the list would be a map with most views & best rating (10), followed by maps with lower views & lower rating.

But so far the visibility of the rating is very helpful. At least now I can search maps based on popularity while checking the rating at the same time.

Btw I just noticed something when there were tons of mods flooding L4D2 again just recently. Probably gamemaps would have to do something about this mod flood by one user.

(My screenshot could only capture few, but in fact the mods have already buried other recent mods & maps in one go in L4D2 main page)

& as I saw this, suddenly I remember that some members ever suggested something about more advanced search feature that exclude certain words or certain authors/ uploaders. I wonder if it's possible to be implemented here. For example, like this:
The "-word" Feature
For example, if I write "-kurochama" in search feature, the search result will show any mods except all mods with the word "kurochama" or by the uploader "kurochama".

I ever saw that kind of feature on several sites, & that feature was very helpful in excluding certain words/ themes when trying to find specific themes or wallpapers, like for example, "scenery -cartoon -cg" will show search result about "scenery" while excluding cartoon sceneries & sceneries created by cg. If this kind of feature can be implemented here, probably many visitors & members will be easier to find specific mods by excluding some words.

Well, I think that's the suggestion I have in mind for now. I hope that it could be helpful in improving the features on the new gamemaps.
