Title: Ignore punctuation?
Post by: razorbeamz on April 08, 2015, 07:46:36 pm

It really bothers me that because of the way VGCollect does alphabetical sorting, Maximo vs. Army of Zin (http://vgcollect.com/item/1534) comes before Maximo: Ghosts to Glory (http://vgcollect.com/item/1535), despite the fact that G comes before V.

Could you guys consider making it ignore colons when sorting alphabetically?

Why does it matter? Just ignore it.

I don't think that's the right attitude to have for a suggestion you might not like.

I think it's a fine suggestion.  I run into a similar issue with titles with sequels.  For instance, Brain Age 2 comes before Brain Age 1 because of the colons that follow the main title.

Colons, Hyphens, and Commas are the bane of my existence when it comes to finding games. Also apostrophes back before the last fix where they would just break search all together. Tony Hawk's games can bite me.
