Ok, so I created a greasemonkey script which will show a user's anime compability (and gender) next each username (UPDATE: and much much more by now). Great for finding users with a high anime compability, for simply knowing who you're talking with on the forums, to find a valuable/suitable review, UPDATE or using the recently added compscore you can even predict how well you will like an anime., etc. You can download it from http://userscripts.org/scripts/show/56162 (you will need to have greasemonkey(firefox add on) or opera installed to use it)

I wonder how much stress this will put on the server with numerous people running it. Does it cache information from names that have been previously polled, or recheck every time?

This kind of feature was previously disabled due to server load, and I'm sure it was more efficient than this script can manage.

TIP: Goto the forums homepage and wait till its fully loaded, next hit ctrl-f (or command-f) and type in "[9" (without the quotes). If you're lucky you will find somebody with an anime compability over 90%, as that page lists all online forum users (I found somebody with an animecompability of 90.3%). Another good place to search for highly compatible people is any anime you really like and next open the stats page, then scroll down and to the right there is a link 'all members' which will show all people who rated the anime a 10 and chances are higher compatible people will be there.


Oh, and about server load, there are two sides here, first of all, it decreases server load partially due to the fact that I would sometimes go compability hunting meaning I would open up to 200 profiles (including images and other non-ligh and non-ascii data) which is heavier then probably 2000 html only profiles. Secondly it will only support the suggestion I did ages ago to create a rainbow like system to find highly compatible users highly decreasing server load, but my suggestion was nearly entirely ignored so one could see this as my small protest (the whole development of mal.net has become passive... craveonline should hire another programmer, finish of the details of mal.net and ensure mal.net becomes the #1 source for anime).

@manami-chin: Chrome: http://lifehacker.com/5180010/enable-user-scripts-in-google-chrome (That's what you get for using an unfinished browser :P despite running nightly builts myself quite often).

Aside of that its not to weird that if you want to have customization that you will use a browser built around the idea of customization and that if you like minimalism that you will use a minimalistic browser like chrome.

Oh, and safari users can use creammonkey I believe, so they are fine as well.

Can you perhaps separate this script out into: [Tells you Gender] [Tells you compatibility] and [Both]. Also can we have a space after the user name?
WOOF!

GreatS: Thanks a lot! I've tried to do everything that that site sugested but I failed :(
But i saw an article that chrome will enable scripts soon or something..
You're right, I prefer chrome because the minimalism style, but also because it's the 2 faster browser, so..

Anyway if you could just tell me we're do I find the Google Chrome shortcut to do this:

The last step is to modify the Google Chrome shortcut—or any Chrome "application" shortcuts—to include the --enable-user-scripts switch after the executable path.

thanks a lot anyway

Kinda cool, except the square brackets mess up the code, and show up in any post I quote, which freaks me out and makes me feel like I'm a stalker who's being stalked at the same time. So I turned it off for the time being. >_>

Updated the script to use ( instead of [ and added a space between (...) and the username, but I gotta leave really quickly, sorry. To update you simply need to install again I think.

You kid, are a cunt.

How hard is it to just click the fucking user you want to see compability of? And gender? Who gives a shit?

As long as the user is nice to talk with why would it matter?

Both people need to have at least ten shared anime that both people have rated. A lot of people don't rate their anime, evidently. Or it's possible you just don't have enough shared.

Greasemonkey scripts are open source for a reason. It's also javascript, client side scripting. It's sandboxed inside your browser. I mean it's possible if an xss vulnerability is found in the browser. I'm to tired to go into detail so just google it.
