Seriously. You have to scroll to the bottom to follow a conversation. The old system was better!

    This emphasis on choice and consequence lends kinitopet a sense of urgency and immediacy rarely seen in games.

    Agreed, but to follow a conversation It's the other way around. @Rohan

    A point I would like to make is that nobody reads comments from the bottom up

    @Rohan ... Just... NO. There was a very good reason why the 5 star system got removed, and never will be re-added. Also, you couldn't make that an option in your settings, even if you wanted to, or the devs decided to. The programming of the website doesn't work that way. It would have to be a universal changed to the website, it can't be done on an individual basis. And besides, there was way too many people would be become whiney if they even got 1 star short of 5 stars. The current upvote system pretty much replicates the state of that system at the time. It was either 5 stars(aka upvote now) or no rating/1 star(aka no upvote)(it was pretty rare for it to truely be in 2-4 stars, and only a few people actually used those stars in the rating system)

    Look dude if the old system came back the abusers of that system would return also, people wouldn't look at planes that weren't 5 stars. And a small group of A-holes would go round one staring everything. The idea is stupid, it encourages haters. How about a comment included with the upvote instead. @Rohan

    Or we could have 5 star rating on in our account setting too! Also with 5 stars you can give points and comment! @HellFireKoder

    @Rohan I also liked it for that reason, but I also think it should stick to upvotes, because FAR to many people flipped out if they got a rating below 5 stars, and while yes, they should grow up, we can't make them, we'd need to constantly manage them (or continuously ban people...), and it's not worth the work and drama.
    For more information on how good it was, there's the comments section, so instead of 1 star people are encouraged to say why it sucks (though it won't really stop them from just saying "it sucks", just like when ratings wanted a comment with them).

    The devs have tried a few different rating systems, and the one that caused the least issues is the upvotes we have now.

    @Rohan hmm the rating system was changed shortly after I joined this game, but I remember a bit about it. I think both rating systems has their own pros and cons. I honestly don't really care much about it, as long as we can give and receive points :)

    I also like the 5 star rating system. It gives me a better idea of what people think. @JovianPat

    @HellFireKoder @TheJohnnyMan @Rohan @AeroEngineering EVERYONE, why don't we suggest this to the devs : In the Manage Account page, add an option to change between the old and new comment system. Should be named "Newest first" and "Newest last".

    I'd like to be able to sort either way, by hitting a button for the other...
    But yeah I liked the old way more, since I prefer to know the whole conversation and scrolling to the bottom for that is generally more annoying than scrolling to the bottom for a new comment (for me...).

    And, if you put clickable links in comments, just because description doesn't support them, users now need to scroll all way down to find them. Developers can add anchor link to newest comments instead of current upside down style.
