Solution Overview

Problem

Current comment display solutions lack diversity in displaying user comments, making it difficult for users to view multiple comments sorted by different criteria simultaneously, and fail to motivate users to post high-quality comments.

Innovation Solution

A method that superimposes dynamically displayed user comments on statically displayed comments, using different rules for selection, such as number of positive comments, posting time, and user level, to create a richer and more interactive commenting atmosphere, with features like rolling displays and rewards for high-quality comments.

Engineering Contradictions & Design Principles

VSEngineering Contradiction Analysis

1Adaptability or versatility

If user comments are displayed in a single static manner, then the display is simple and easy to implement, but it is difficult for users to simultaneously view multiple comments sorted by different criteria and the commenting atmosphere is not active

Engineering Contradiction:
Improvecomment display diversityVSAvoiddisplay system complexity
Core Design Contradiction:
Adaptability or versatilityVSDevice complexity

Solution Approach 1:

The patent segments the comment display system into two independent modules: a static display module that shows comments sorted by one criterion (e.g., time), and a dynamic display module that shows comments sorted by different criteria (e.g., hotness, user level). This segmentation allows each module to operate independently with its own sorting rules, achieving diverse comment display without requiring complete system redesign.

Inventive Principle:
Principle #1Segmentation

Solution Approach 2:

The patent introduces a new dimension of display by superimposing dynamic comments over the static comment list. The dynamic comments are displayed in a floating overlay that can move across the screen, adding a temporal and spatial dimension to the traditional static comment display. This dimensional addition enables multiple sorting criteria to be visible simultaneously without replacing the original display structure.

Inventive Principle:
Principle #17Another dimension (Dimensionality change)

2Productivity

If traditional comment display methods are used, then the implementation is straightforward, but users are not motivated to actively post high-quality comments

Engineering Contradiction:
Improveuser commenting activityVSAvoidcomment posting incentive
Core Design Contradiction:
ProductivityVSEase of operation

Solution Approach 1:

The patent implements a feedback mechanism where high-quality comments (identified by sorting criteria such as user level, comment quality, or engagement metrics) are selectively displayed in the dynamic overlay portion of the interface. This provides immediate visual feedback to users that their quality comments receive special recognition and prominence, thereby motivating increased commenting activity and quality improvement.

Inventive Principle:
Principle #23Feedback

Solution Approach 2:

The patent employs visual differentiation through color and styling changes to distinguish dynamic high-quality comments from static regular comments. The dynamic comments may use different colors, borders, or animation effects to highlight their special status, making the recognition system visually apparent and thus motivating users to post higher quality content to achieve this distinguished display state.

Inventive Principle:
Principle #32Color changes

AI summary

Disclosed is a comment display method, a comment display system, an electronic device, and a readable storage medium. The method comprises the following: in a comment area of a display page, statically displaying a first plurality of user comments arranged according to a first rule; and on the statically displayed user comments, superimposing a second plurality of dynamically displayed user comments, wherein, the second plurality of user comments are selected according to a second rule. Thus, the superimposing of static and dynamic display of user comments diversify the display of comments.
