allanjim3 Posted November 3, 2020 Share Posted November 3, 2020 Hello All, I was just searching through Custom Tones looking at some preset tones for my Amp. I searched using the various filters when suddenly I realized; this could be infinitely improved with a few small changes. The first and most obvious (to me) was the search filter of Rating doesn't take into account the number of downloads! This is bonkers, bananas and just plain wrong. A custom tone with a rating of five out of a possible five stars which has been downloaded two times should NEVER be considered equal to or even close to a custom tone rated as five stars which has been downloaded two thousand times! The second tone has been given a perfect rating by 2000 grumpy, nit-picking Line 6 users - while the other has been downloaded by it's creator's two best friends Hob and Nob. Of course they're going to give his tone a perfect rating - he hasn't made fun of either name! The other filter or search upgrade which I believe might prove helpful, but currently doesn't exist (and I could have missed it or simply be mistaken ... I'm quite fallible) is searching using several combined filters ... pretty self-explanatory stuff. Hey, thanks for reading as well as any consideration you may give. Cheers, Jim Ps - You want the best tools for the job out in this big world. You DO NOT wanna be the guy in a street fight who only knows capoeira!

pianoguyy Posted November 6, 2020 Share Posted November 6, 2020 except - 2000 downloads because a file is 10 years old and simply had more opportunity to be downloaded is not the same as 2000 downloads this week because someone posted their link to another platform such as youtube. also, 2000 downloads with 5 votes is not the same as 200 downloads with 100 votes.

You wanted me to type every possible scenario? Your comment goes without saying ... unless you’re implying the people here lack the ability to comprehend the gist of my comment without your assistance. Personally, I thought they’d all the essence of my comment, but thanks for the clarification Mr. Joel. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
cruisinon2 Posted November 6, 2020 Share Posted November 6, 2020 I'm actually witnessing an argument over a website's search function.... once this is settled I hope we can move into something really important, like this font they've given us. It's just disgraceful... ;) Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
