[12:45:05] <FatPhil> phew, post lameness filter did the right thing - I was worried about my most recent post.
[12:52:18] <Bytram> FatPhil: posting a submission? or a comment?
[12:53:05] <Virindi> every post on the "disagreement" topic is rated positive disagree, I wonder if this is an actual outpouring of group humor or if something has been messed with :P
[12:55:21] <Virindi> but is disagree positive, negative, or zero...
[12:55:27] <Virindi> it is not clear to me
[12:56:30] <Bytram> I've never entirely worked out to my satisfaction how rehash (our code) decides which label to attach to a comment that has had multiple moderations... it *seems* to be whatever was last applied, but I'm not at all certain...
[12:56:46] <Virindi> what "value" is attached to a disagree mod?
[12:56:49] <Bytram> so one could do: disagree and then underrated, for example
[12:57:07] <Bytram> not sure. I *think* it is... 0 (zero)
[12:57:42] <Bytram> mod value is kept server-side
[12:57:43] <Virindi> I've never rated something "disagree" because I didn't know what the value was
[12:57:59] <Virindi> the values for each mod should be listed in the dropdown
[12:58:13] <Bytram> ummm, disagree. =)
[12:58:35] <Virindi> I don't want to unintentionally give someone a negative point!
[12:58:39] <Bytram> it's a setting in the DB... pulling that out for every single comment could be performance hit.
[12:58:46] <Bytram> sure, it could be cached, but.
[12:58:49] <Virindi> huh, cache
[12:59:02] <Bytram> anyway... give me a couple minutes, cross your fingers, and I may be able to pull it from the DB
[12:59:02] <Virindi> that's rarely going to change
[12:59:11] <Bytram> I have a flakey connection today, so wish me luck!
[13:01:53] <Bytram> disagree value == 0
[13:02:11] <Virindi> I disagree with that value! okay maybe not
[13:03:18] <Bytram> note, can mod overrated/underrated ONLY if the comment already has been moderated... not allowed as first mod on a comment.
[13:03:33] <Bytram> Virindi: pm?
[13:03:44] <Virindi> ?
[13:04:38] <chromas> You could just manually put the value into each label
[13:04:45] <chromas> or just put a +/- on each one
[13:05:06] <Virindi> list it on the moderation help page
[13:08:33] <Bytram> Believe it or not, the values are just what they ended up choosing... I could easily change things so that an, Insightful, for example gave +30 points. ;)
[13:09:19] <Bytram> hmmm.... April 1, add a 'Bonus' mod that appears randomly (say 1 in 100 or more) that one could use to apply a +2 mod to a story.
[13:09:43] <Bytram> and then, on April 2, change the value to.... zero.
[13:09:54] <Bytram> okay, break time!
[13:11:13] <chromas> Seasonal mods
[13:12:13] <Virindi> I rate that concept "+1 BOO!"

[21:18:10] <FatPhil> Sigh, I get all positive about ST:DS9 after watching S04, and what do I get right at the start of
[21:18:27] <FatPhil> S05 but some stupid fanfiction-level bullshit.
[21:29:12] <mechanicjay> LOL
[21:29:20] <mechanicjay> remind me what Season 5 starts out with?

[22:08:48] <FatPhil> however, it was e02 that has made me irate. All the online reviewers have gushed about it, tor.com gave it 9/10, but for me it was utter trash.
[22:13:21] <mechanicjay> What's the oneliner about the episode?
