Description Lutz 2002-12-11 14:08:27 UTC

Version:            (using KDE KDE 3.0.4)
Installed from:    Gentoo Packages

If I set up scoring affects this rule affects only the matching article, not the thread itself. So its very difficult to decide, whether an thread is worth reading or not.

Example:
user1 wrote an Article and user2 reply something. Nevertheless if user2 has a score of 100 in colapsed view the scoring is displayed as 0, but this should be accumulated to 100 (0+100).

If in this thread user3 with a Score of -10 write something, the score (in colapsed view), should display 90 (0+100-10).


With Regards

Lutz

Lutz wants to accumulate scores over threads to get thread scores.

I need something similar, but different: I do not want to read replies to trolls. So if I am scoring a person user1 with -100, I want that score to be inherited by followups to that posting. These postings should also have a starting score of -100, plus or minus their individual additional scores.

Optionally, the score may decay a bit with each generation of followup, so that the starting posting has a score of -100 or +100, the followup starts at -80 or +80, second generation followups are at -60 or +60 and so on.

I would opt for fixed (not accumulative) scoring too -- which affects the _SUB_thread, so I think the best thing would be to add appropriate options for that.

A new scoring/filtering rule that would assign a score based on the parents (or childs) score would be nice. That would make groups with high noise ratio/trolls readable.

Hello! Sorry to be the bearer of bad news, but this project has been unmaintained for many years so I am closing this bug.
