:: TL;DR that's just another issue with our stone-age rating system that's bugging me for a long time and I strongly think this change would greatly improve the consistency of the current system without requiring drastic changes on the wiki, especially after the previous attempts which didn't go anywhere (e.g. the relabeling of the ratings from [[User:MaJoR|MaJoR]], the 3-star rating from myself or that "blue stars" thing from [[User:Lucario|Lucario]]) - [[User:Jhonn|Jhonn]] ([[User talk:Jhonn|talk]]) 06:37, 16 March 2017 (CET)

::: We haven't even discussed about "blue stars" yet. I've been working on it but I can't seem to get it working the way I want it to yet, hence why I didn't feel like starting a discussion about it yet. The blue stars was supposed to avoid misleading the users thinking there'd be no (or not as much) issues with default settings. Users will quickly notice its color before they even look at how many stars there are and being misled. [[User:Lucario|Lucario]] ([[User talk:Lucario|talk]]) 00:16, 18 March 2017 (CET)

::::5% of the population has some form of color blindness... - [[User:MaJoR|MaJoR]] ([[User talk:MaJoR|talk]]) 03:48, 24 March 2017 (CET)
:::::Now that you mention it, I've ran blue and yellow stars into several color blind simulators and I was still able to distringuish between them just fine. Also there is new text "(configured)" appended next to rating text that'll take readers to the Configuration section to see how it ended up perfect or having lesser issues. (In case you were out of loop, notice that [[Super Smash Bros. Melee/sandbox]] has blue stars, it's static ATM) If a color blind user is still unable to distinguish between the blue and yellow stars he can always look at whether there is text "(configured)" appended next to rating text or not.

:: Side note, since it seems you've been doing some Channel testing. Can you fill in the missing Channel GameIDs, Jhonn?

:: I still feel it will be bad for users to see titles rated as 5 star, play the game and face errors, and then fight us here on the perfect rating. I'd much prefer to focus on actually getting the INI updates made than lots of revisions here to account for things differently.

:Ack! Sorry for replying so late, I've been super busy IRL! So um... I'm opposed. If a user loads up a game, and encounters a problem, they should find the solution in the problems section (or the emulation section if it is a game bug or something), whether it is their fault or not. Remember, I support keeping problems that can still occur if the graphics config is opened (suitably labeled) - what's most important to me is informing users. - [[User:MaJoR|MaJoR]] ([[User talk:MaJoR|talk]]) 03:48, 24 March 2017 (CET)
