Questions & Answers

I think you'll find that if you've already rated a release & then add a review to it then it'll maintain the original date & won't be pushed onto the main page. Could that be the case here Rex? To get around that you need to delete your rating before posting your review.

Ah.  Okay.

The above has happened to me today in my The Fallen 2025 list only it also appears to have duplicated my review of the affected album (Morast 'Fentanyl') as well. 

EDIT - I just deleted one of the reviews and it solved this issue.

Secondly, the thread loads really quickly for me (a couple of seconds per page). I can't see any issue, either on my PC or my phone.

I've just visited the main forum page for The Guardians & it took 32 seconds to completely load up so there's definitely something going on Ben, at least there is for me.

Like Ben, I have no issues with slow loading speeds on either tablet or laptop for most pages except for those under the "Releases" main tab, which can take 30 seconds or more.

Thanks for the detailed explanation, Daniel. Please count me in for The Horde; I will be getting in touch with other playlist administrators soon.

ah well it seems I've since fixed them during that time. Thanks anyways!

No, it is not intended that anyone can rate releases 0 stars. I don't think it was always possible, so something must have changed at some point to allow it. I will ask my developer to fix.

In the meantime, I will delete any 0 star ratings that I see.

Well, it worked perfectly for my Meshuggah review.

Ah, that will explain it. I will update using my tablet in future as that has the app on it.

Sorted.

I wrote my Reign in Blood and South of Heaven reviews yesterday, and for some reason they're dated as having been published on the 22nd instead of the 31st.

Ben, I've just rated Godflesh's "Merciless" E.P. & after rating the cover artwork I noticed that both my rating & Andi's rating are being included under Clan Cover Rating as well as Site Cover Rating despite the fact that neither of us are a part of The Sphere. It'd be worth looking into that.

It's absolutely worth it. The loading speed of the homepage is incredibly quick now.

I like that idea, Sonny! That way, I wouldn't have to make a review to-do list anymore whenever I have so many releases that I plan on reviewing.

Yeah, go for it. I wish we could find a way to connect a release to multiple bands, but it’s not going to happen.

Good question. I'll put some together in the next couple of days.

Cheers!
