Bump!

People, you know the ones that create and help with our beloved anime don't get enough attention I think. Why not allow 10 spots for favorite people, just to also be consistent. Personally I think it should be 10 spots for every category, favorite anime, favorite manga, favorite characters, and favorite people. How it is right now is just....weird and random.

5 Favorite Anime
5 Favorite Manga
10 Favorite Characters
7...Favorite People....

It drives my OCD nuts, and I don't even have OCD!

I have often this problem that I don't know who to have as top 10 "favorite characters". I would like it to increase with 10, to top 20, because it would be soooo much easier. There's very many great characters and it's a huge problem to put them in a order.

Thank you if that will be taken up to discussion or get officially changed.

Probably the only "AniDB has it" quote from you about some topic where I would agree of NOT adding that to MAL :P
@merenacherry, if you need more than 10 slots for favorite characters, you might reconsider some of those you added or want to add if they are really that worthy to called "top" characters for you. :P

I think 10 is a good number to stay at.

The fewer the numbers, the more important the characters are to you.

15 would be good. Only show 10 and have text that says something like "View All" and when clicked, it brings up an overlay containing all characters.

I'd take ten of everything, minus 5/10 hidden behind dropdown arrows, myself.

Bugger fifteen, along with your "crazy" idea.

Is there even really a good reason on why there's a limit to begin with? I'm a bit new here so bear with me. I wish there was NO limit but there may be some technical reason that I'm not aware of for the limit. I would love way more than 10 favorite slots. How the heck can you even choose just ten? Shakugan No Shana takes up four of my slots alone because each season and the OVA ARE my favorites. Not because it's the best show ever made although I did enjoy it immensely but because of the warm memories and the fact that Shana is the one who got me back into anime not too long ago. I just watched another really great anime Zetsuen no Tempest or Tempest Blaster and HAD to add it to my favorites and now they're all full. What do I do now? lol. I need about a gazillion more slots.

Seriously though is there a good reason for the limit? I'd really like to know. I really don't need more spots but it would be nice.

Zeando said:
if the favorites weren't counted to have rankings by top favorited, then anyone could set as many favorites as they like
but so long there is a ranking, to have it being sensed and fair, the number of max favorites for everyone should be even

1) the reason is the existence of a ranking, it would become pretty flat and less interesting if anyone could have infinite favorites (and it would be affected even more by the serie popularity, instead of reflecting the character popularity, not like it doesn't happens here anyway... but it's more tame here)
2) an other reason, but less direct, is the value of the favorites, if there wasn't a limit they wouldn't be "favorite characters" but "liked characters" or "known characters" or "generic list of characters"
besides, as many have already said, if one wants a longer list they can use their profile or the blogs

I think that MyAnimeList should let you have at least 20 favorite characters and 10 favorite animes. I see some people who have that and I think that everyone should have it. Kinda unfair :l

Not 20 but it's been now expanded to 10-10-10-10 at least.

No, the current numbers are fine. It's supposed to be your favorites not your likes, whittle it down to your absolute favorites.

I agree. Ten is a good number, and there's a difference between your absolute favorites than anime you simply like. Speaking for myself, I can't imagine someone having a lot of favorites.

Well I'm glad the status quo is changing from 5 to 10. But in order to avoid being a regressive horseshit elitist we must either make it unlimited or a high enough number to accommodate the subjectivity of the word "favorite".
Since the word "anime" covers more than one genre and within each genre we could have a particular anime that is a "favorite".

Dwindling it down to accommodate a Vague notion of favorites such as "anime" dwarfs your preference to bandwagon around the notion that you can't have more than x amount.. Which is stupid.

Basically to simplify my statement: Yeah favorites varies among many users trying to shove a restriction on others is in fact autocratic and you should be ashamed of it. Fuck adding shit to the "About Me" or "Blog" section, just lessen the restriction and if users don't want to us more than what they think is necessary then they don't have too. Fuck all you regressive cunts that bandwagon around 10 is enough or 5 is enough, do yourself a favor and just use 1 favorite because you should be able to dwindle it down no? LMAO

Behold of my awesomeness~

At least make the number of favs customizable, so we can choose one from a list. That wouldn't really cause much pain the ass...

Example:
  • 5
  • 10
  • 15
  • 20
  • 25
