Keep default tab at 'Ratings'
I don't know when this started or how often it occurs (1 in 10 times?) but when I open up a film, I'd like it to have the 'Ratings' tab automatically opened, not the 'Buy' tab.

Re: Keep default tab at 'Ratings'
Think this started happening yesterday, as I'd never seen it before and it happened.. Probably 5 or so times yesterday. For some reason I thought it was happening 'cause I accidentally touched the "Buy" tab though, didn't really think it was a site issue.
Re: Keep default tab at 'Ratings'
I think it is intentional. If it means more money for Criticker, I'm find with moving my finger half a centimetre and clicking the 'Ratings' tab.

Re: Keep default tab at 'Ratings'
It seems to be happening in about 1 in 5 pages consitently, so I'm sure it's intentional. If it helps the site keep a decent revenue coming in for the site, it's fine by me on occasion.

I'm getting this tab all the time. Once in a while I don't mind, but this is getting very annoying. I understand Criticker wants to generate some income, but this is pissing me off.

If anyone works out an edit (firebug, or what have you), then please let us know/msg.
Of course, preferably the mods will tell us, with the strict understanding that nothing will be implemented.

Re: Keep default tab at 'Ratings'
This is for some reason happening more and more.. Just now browsing some films, I swear I got the "Buy" tab 5/6 times. Once in a while is fine, but.. Come on. This is hardly user-friendly.

Re: Keep default tab at 'Ratings'
word to this, guys, i've been kind of pissed about this also, it's quite annoying; actually i've been considering bringing it up since the second time it happened to me which was on the first day it started happening. i doubt that it was intentional though, the moderators wouldnt do that to us.
EDIT: i just intentionally checked it out to see how often it happened i searched quigley down under and 7/10 times i got the buy page, if that is intentional it is unacceptable.

Re: Keep default tab at 'Ratings'
The rate you should be seeing the Buy tab is 1 out of 5. That is, 4 out of 5 loads should lead to the ratings tab. This has worked out correctly in our internal testing, so I'm confused as to how you might be experiencing 7 out of 10 going to "Buy". The frequency does increase slightly when there is a special product for the film, but even then it's just 1 out of 4.
Non-registered users (guests) have an increased hit rate.
Check it out again, and let me know if you continue to see the Buy tab more frequently than you should.

Re: Keep default tab at 'Ratings'
opening up 56 film pages from my top rankings, I got 11 times the Buy tab out of 56, which is pretty much the 1/5 mpowell mentioned. Of course one should be aware that we humans are very susceptible to patterns (streaks). So even if the real rate is only 1/5, we will "see" on average maybe 1/3.
