Normally i would say Yes, but thennI thought "its not the same hack" so ill stick with meh.
I thought the original goal of moons was to point out new notable publications, so that people wouldn't miss certain newly published movies that were in a way special. I thought that a movie losing its moon after a month or so was really the idea, just something never implemented.
Edit: I think I understand now: It's my avatar, isn't it? It makes me look angry.
Marking "firsts of their kind" is an interesting and a different idea altogether, as that is actually easy to define, and this way there is no heredity involved (on the other hand, it's totally retrofit-friendly). This should be useful as an exhibition of TASing history and particular milestones of its evolution.
idea lightbulb?
Shall we have "suns" for legendary movies that shine on people for ever and a day!
I don't know, suns just don't seem like a good idea.
>_> But yeah, I agree with what everyone else has been saying.Althought I was joking, I expressed that the icons should be made on a unified theme. A light bulb doesn't seem suitable.
The reason given for stars existing is to offer recommendations for someone who is new to the site/concept. What would a user gain from being able to see this "notable" list of movies? If that question doesn't have a good answer, then it's tough to see this concept as more than just another needless designation. I already feel this way about the stars, so a second method of self-congratulating seems redundant and cluttered. It reminds me of the old "ninja" rank.
You could use the same argument for pretty much everything else as well, such as the category tags and ratings.
The obvious counter-argument would be: What's the harm? Someone might find it useful, especially someone who just casually skims over new publications from time to time to see if anything interesting-looking pops up.
