Information Sharing System Filtering Non-Player Posts
Find Innovative SolutionsGenerate Solutions
Solution Overview
Problem
Users face challenges in filtering out irrelevant or unreliable information when browsing posting information on social networking services or bulletin board systems, as not all users have played the game or used the service, leading to mixed quality of shared content.
Innovation Solution
An information sharing system that includes a processor to accept and display posting information, with a filtering mechanism to show only content from users who have played the game, allowing users to switch between a broad display mode and a filtered mode that excludes posts from non-players, enhancing credibility by showcasing only relevant information from experienced users.
Engineering Contradictions & Design Principles
Engineering Contradiction Analysis
1Quantity of substance
If all posting information is displayed without filtering, then the quantity of information is maximized, but the reliability and relevance of the information deteriorates
Solution Approach 1:
The patent extracts and removes posting information from users who have not played the game (non-players) from the display results. By taking out only the problematic portion (posts from non-players), the system maintains the overall quantity of useful information while eliminating unreliable content, thus resolving the contradiction between quantity and reliability.
2Reliability
If posting information is filtered by user status, then the reliability of information is improved, but the device complexity increases
Solution Approach 1:
The system uses the game execution device's existing user status detection capability to automatically identify non-player users and filter their posts. The filtering mechanism leverages the device's inherent tracking of user game status, eliminating the need for separate complex filtering hardware or systems, thus improving reliability without significantly increasing device complexity.
3Ease of operation
If posting information is displayed without filtering, then the ease of operation is maximized, but the quality of information deteriorates
Solution Approach 1:
By extracting and removing only the low-quality posts from non-player users, the system maintains simple, easy-to-use browsing functionality for legitimate players while improving information quality. The filtering is applied transparently in the background, so users continue to browse easily without noticing the quality improvement process, thus resolving the contradiction between ease of operation and information quality.

AI summary
An example of an information sharing system includes at least one processor configured to: accept posting information on a content posted by each of a plurality of users; display the accepted posting information on a first screen; and display, on a second screen, the posting information, which is to be displayed on the first screen and which is posted by one of the plurality of users whose status satisfies a condition on usage of the content.
