Playlist Feedback (Sift Talk Post)

raven says...

I love playlists... I have so many that they don't all show up on my profile page anymore! To answer your questions:

* What aspects of the entire playlist neighborhood of features do you enjoy the most? What bothers you the most?

-I like playlists because they are all different, and while I can understand the downsides to this that rembar has mentioned, I don't think instating quality control features is right. Just because someone has not updated their list in over a year does not mean it should be removed... I say this if only because it is possible the user hasn't found anything to add to their list... for instance my 'For Our Great and Glorious Leader' list is on the small side, and doesn't get added to very often... (Kim Jong Il you elusive lil' bastard!). Perhaps instating a voting system for playlists would help to give users a better idea of which ones are good.... nothing crazy here, just a way for users who do go through the playlists to leave a little input as to the quality of the playlist.

* Do you find yourself often browse through the pages listed on Playlists tab? Has playlist browsing added a lot of time to your regular Sift usage?

-Yes, sometimes when I'm out of other things to do on the sift, or just to see what other people have playlisted, or what is popular... don't do away with this feature, I would mourn the loss of access to that sort of data.

* Do you ever use (or "would you really miss") the ability to sort playlists by title or username? Would you like to be able to sort playlists: in random order? by playlist creation date? by number of videos in the playlist?

-I would miss all these functions, the ability to sort the lists is the only way searching through them is at all feasible.... in fact, I would very much like to see more options to sort them.

* Do you always select the "reverse" option to list newest additions first? Do you always decide to allow viewer suggestions? Do you find that the suggestion feature is even of any use at all or have you found it to be utterly useless?

-I like both these features... and yes, I always select reverse, but like having the option to do both. I don't always allow viewer selections, it depends on the list. 'Raven's Favorites' for instance, is all about me... as are some other ones I want control of for various reasons.

* Do you often refer to the "top 5 playlist" sidebar panel? Do you enjoy being listed in there?

-Yes! I like to see who else is as active with their lists as I am.

The only other issue I might have is that I dislike the Playlist Video Manager interface. It is too time consuming to individually order the videos by moving them up or down one at a time... even I am not that compulsive. It would be nice to have preset sorting options within this... like maybe, by most or least votes, oldest or newest date of sifting, etc. That would be really handy and would allow larger lists to be given some coherence very easily.

It is, and its a rather clever fake. The TNT is a distraction, the preset (the part that follows the explosion) having been filmed at an actual beach. Watch the camera pans to notice when the spliced it. A well done work, even for a fake.
