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