Any possibility on getting info on who left the review added to the 2/event_ratings api? Right now it's just time, group_id, event_id and rating.

Hi Senloe,

These are intentionally anonymous as they are on the site. We do not intend on revealing event rating authorship in the immediate future.

ok this seems new. I was just looking at the site a few days ago and it showed ratings/comments/reviewers together. Now I only see comment/reviewer and the event rating average listed elsewhere. Are there any plans to change the api in this regard (to show the comment/reviewer without the rating)?

The site behavior has not changed for some time in that respect.  You're right though, it would make more sense for the API to list the review comment and the reviewing member together. The numeric rating should only be served as an average. We'll change that.

Hi Steve, we've launched the updates to /2/event_ratings:

Now you can find member_id and member_name in the results. The numeric rating will only appear if the currently authenticated user is the one who left the review. The average rating has been added to /2/events results:

So I STILL can't see who keeps giving my events one star.  LOL

Nathan,
I was finally able to get around to looking at the event_ratings api and I'm a little confused on how it works. It appears to return an entry for each user who has left a rating whether they left a review or not, correct? I'm getting results like the below and when I verify via the website, there are no reviews, just an average rating.
So if I just want to list the user and their review, I need to call event_ratings, but filter out entries with no "review" field?
