Loss of comments

Leonardo C. Alves · 12th July 2002, 06:23

Hi people, apologies if it was already noticed/commented/explained, but could someone tell me why my skins are losing the (few) public ratings they received here at Winamp.com?

simon snowflake · 12th July 2002, 06:27

examples?

Leonardo C. Alves · 12th July 2002, 06:54

Examples? I dont know in what it helps but, well, search for "starry Candyskin", "Grafitte CL" and "Palm Amp i705". You'll find skins without any comment, but believe, they were there, some weeks ago.

u dunno how many reviews you had on Palm Amp i705, but I can see three

Seems that if no-one has commented your skin for a while it comes back with the "can you believe nobody has said anything yet!" comment. It's happened to a few of my skins too. But the user comments are still there.

simon snowflake · 12th July 2002, 08:08

hmm yeah, i wondered why that was.
If it is as atmo say's, it will increase the chance that someone comments it.

Mr_Tough_Guy · 12th July 2002, 11:32

yeah noticed that too, but when I found out the actual comments were still there I just ignored it and forgot about it

Yeah, I usually see the "Can you believe...?" thing in my skins, althought the comments are still there (click on 'review'). I don't think the time without anyone commenting is a factor, though.

Its happened to me too. Its a skin that was published nearly 2 years back.

Leonardo C. Alves · 12th July 2002, 22:02

Thank you guys. In fact the reviews are still there, although at the skin its shown that nobody has commented it yet. Would be good if it was happening as an attempt to increase the chance for a skin to be commented... But I think its nothing more than a bug, since I have a much older skin, which received just one comment, months ago, and this skin doesnt shows "Can you believe... etc etc etc"

About a week and a half ago, al my user reviews went missing from the skin details page, but they're back now. It'll probably work eventually.

I don't think the time without anyone commenting is a factor, though. Many who live deserve death, some who die deserve life - can you give it to them? Then be not so quick to deal out death in judgement.
