I got a question - what should I write in the "comments" field ? Is it the number of opinions ? - well it's not, cause I checked that lol, so what does it mean ?
Is it possible to find for example the DBZ vids with the highest ratings and the most oppinionated. It should be possible to view the search results order by number of opinions and ratings.

The comments box when giving a review/opinion? Anything you want about the video, like general technical suggestions, the overall impression you got from the video, or even just "cool video".

I don't think anyone knows what that box is for :p

I thnik maybe it might be to searth the comments that the creator wrote about the video. Like when you click the video name, it brings up that window where the creator has written some stuff...

You don't have to put anything in there, though.

the comments search field does nothing

whenever you put any string in that field, no matter what it is you enter, the same results come up...

That's not true ! - when I search for all DBZ vids I got 3314 vids in results, but when I write in the comments box "9" I got only 86 results.
Well admin should know what does it do :roll:

I hope people are just playing with you, otherwise it's pretty sad the response you've gotten so far.

Look at the 'Comments' section as a google search. You look for key words that are written in the vid description. For example, if you're looking for the number 9, you'll only get vids where the creator wrote a number 9 in his vid description. If you search for 'angst' - you'll get vids that have the word angst in the vid description. It lets you limit your search if you're looking for certain vids. For example, if you're going through dbz vids and you want the good ones, you might search for 'contest' and get the ones where the creator mentiones a contest in his vid description (his comments).

Hope that helps. ^_^

Well, it doesn't always work for me either - it depends more on the word you're looking for. Do a test run and use super search for this:
Anime: Saiyuki
Comments: shonen
Result: 1

or this

Anime: Sanctuary (from angel sanctuary)
Comments: fall into
Results: 8

It may only take parts of words if it can't find the one you put in the comments box, and it doesn't work very well with anime that have a lot of listings. So yeah, it doesn't always work, but that's the purpose of the comment section. :?

the problem is when i search for saiyuki/shonen i get the same result i get when i search for saiyuki/9 or saiyuki/htneaoushtnaoes

although entering a string in the comments narrows down the results, it does not depend what string you enter- they all show the same results

Ok - thx for your help Arigatomyna. Now it makes sense, but still I think, that this option is not very useful. More important would be serch results "order by: number of opinions"

That's odd. When I change the word on the Saiyuki search I get different results. Are you a donator? I don't think that should matter, but it's made some effects in the 'search according to download' so you never know (and the results of those two searches were mostly local vids). Either way, it's not fullproof for me. I think there's a bug in the system somewhere. :?

And Turunks? - last I heard Phade is working on a way to filter the top 10% list according to anime. That should make it easier to find high ranking vids for the anime you like.
