And you brainwashed another forum user to join in. Shame on you.

nuuuuuu micronesia

I'd mass 5 to make up for it, but I'm not that fucking bored

Thanks for creating more work for me HB, there's just never enough to do around here. For your efforts, you get to be the only person who knows for certain that his votes don't count.

It's not like you have a moral obligation to reverse his work though.

SonuvBob is the archangel that guards TeamLiquidians from the evils of blog vote spammers. It is his duty, handed down by God, to purge the soulless beings that roam these forums.

It's not about morals, it's about keeping the ratings accurate so they're not meaningless.

Lol Hot_Bid wins. Blogging isn't a competition. The rating system should give you a general idea of what people thought about your writing, it shouldn't give you bragging rights to say "im ranked 7 on TL blogs with a score of 4.5 out of 5" because frankly, nobody cares except for you guys. Hot_Bid is just trying to help you get over it by showing you the system has little meaning and is mostly for fun.
|
P.S. letting people know how much it pisses you off that they rate your blogs a 1 is the easiest way to get targeted by a malicious user. Now if you beef with anyone they can get back at you with the push of a button..

Blogging isn't a competition. Because? I personally don't consider it much of a competition either, but if the rating system is reasonably accurate, then there's no reason not to try to have the best rating. Appealing to the readers is good. If you don't care about your rating, then don't worry about it so long as you don't get your blogs closed... but there's no reason to complain that other people shouldn't care.
The rating system should give you a general idea of what people thought about your writing, Which it certainly doesn't if people play significant amounts of hankie pankie like they have before. Either it is meant to be fairly accurate, or it isn't meant to be accurate at all. No in-between really works. I don't see why your decision that it should 'give you a general idea of what people thought about your writing' should be the letter of the law rather than your own opinion (and don't pull that 'oh obviously this is just my opinion' crap because you clearly are asserting that the people with contrary viewpoints are wrong).
it shouldn't give you bragging rights to say "im ranked 7 on TL blogs with a score of 4.5 out of 5" because frankly, nobody cares except for you guys. You used the word 'because', but the second half of the sentence doesn't seem to support the first half in any way.
Hot_Bid is just trying to help you get over it by showing you the system has little meaning and is mostly for fun. I really don't think that's what he was doing. If he was trying to help people get over it, he would have targeted people who seriously cared about their own ratings (like plexa who seriously deserves a good rating).
That's right Hot_Bid. Go give 1's to Plexa's blog. Oh wait they don't count. + Show Spoiler +

On a separate note, the blogs section seems to have an error:
Raithed, crazie-penguin, and I seem to have our posts quantity swapped when sorting by posts count.

Fixed. It wasn't swapping them, just calculating them wrong.
