  1. 19-There is only bias when talking about 0.5 star ratings
  2. 3-okay, but it'd be trivial to weigh ratings based on at least the first 10 chapter reads
  3. 1-Ratings under 4 stars mean death because that's what the users decided to draw the line at
  4. 15-It's RR's fault that getting traction as a new author is hard
  5. 26-okay, but having less negative ratings would make it so users give more stories a chance
  6. 6-The rating system behaves differently from a binary rating system mathematically
  7. 24-okay, but authors would never abuse it to create an unequal situation by using varying levels of aggressive tactics to coerce feedback
  8. 8-Removing ratings completely is beneficial to authors
  9. 13-Having a low average rating means readers dismiss my novel then they go do something else other than reading
  10. 28-Removing some top percentile of ratings totally makes sense"
  11. 2-The number of chapters read is linearly proportional with how well-formed a readers opinion is
  12. 4-okay, but once it's implemented, it'd be a fool-proof way to prevent drive-by ratings. Users would absolutely not do their best to bypass it
  13. 7-We need more five star ratings
  14. 9-Removing ratings completely is beneficial to readers
  15. 12-It is a bad thing that higher ranked fictions get more views
  16. 22-You can evaluate subjective quality/suitability based only on positive feedback
  17. 27-What do you mean readers would just raise the bar? That's absolutely not how it works, that's why users draw the line at the neutral unbiased mean of 2.75 stars
  18. 18-A 0.5 star rating is never justifiable
  19. 14-Giving readers reading suggestions irrespective of other readers opinions does not result in a worse experience
  20. 21-Negative feedback is inherently bad
  21. 5-Reminding readers to rate or review would lead to an objectively better rating system
  22. 16-Ratings affect visibility on all lists
  23. 17-Okay, but RR doesn't actually try to provide lists not based on ratings
  24. 29-Drive-by ratings only affect my fiction and therefore it's an unequal contest
  25. 11-You can give ideal personalised suggestions
  26. 30-Using median instead of mean in a system with a bias factor of 20x makes perfect sense
  27. 25-Everyone having less negative ratings would improve everyone's rankings"
  28. 23-okay, but you can objectively evaluate it based on the percentage of readers willing to give positive feedback
  29. 10-You can give ideal personalised suggestions without ratings
  30. 20-okay, but there is only bias when talking about ratings less than 3 stars
