Idk if this is already been said (probably has), but the recommendations on from an anime's page need a rating function.

Some of the recommendations are utter bs. I think there should be a rating /10 for each recommendation, and recommendations with low rating should be at the very bottom of the list, or not there. From what I can see, currently the recommendations is done by how many users recommend the anime/manga. < This doesn't work. There are too many retards on the web.

When I go to an anime/manga's page and look at the recommendation list, I expect to find a similar anime/manga listed. Not Naruto/One Piece/Code Geass or SnK. (every time).


edit: Just letting you all know that I probs won't come back to this thread. Msg me if you have something you want to say.

Painful example:

>Toradora.
>HUEHUEHUE

@Edit:
Somehow Toradora! attracts the shittiest of the shitty recs.

Assuming that the ratings will be done by the same web retards who are screwing up recommendations, you haven't actually shown how adding a numerical rating would make them less retarded.

Pretty much this, lol. But yeah, the more helpful thoughts would be which recommendation to list out of those many? I believe we should have the power the choose which was written the best, even though it recommends the same two series. When doing so, we would be adding quality to quantity. Still, the quantity would stay as the main judgment. With the type of the hyped community MAL has, I seriously doubt we could enforce reason and rationality, though.

If it means anything, I'm working on a recommendation system myself, and that one will have a variety of known and unknown (to most) series on the list, not pure display of dried over titles.
