EPTHow about implementing a meta-moderation system? If you make a rating of 1 on a great post, and 10 other people rate it a 5, then your credibility rating drops. And vice versa. Also subject to abuse, but it will have to be more coordinated (and possibly more obvious). Search function yields a post by SonuvBob, saying that we don't have any such meta-moderation yet. But which also indicates it's already been given some thought.

And even if there's people always voting 1, the same applies to every blog, and better blogs generally get a higher ratings. | ||

If your only votes are 1 and 2, 2 will count as 5 and so on. I think this is a great idea. It is far simpler than implementing karma + m2, and allows a difference of opinion while negating the effect of the 1/5 trolls. | ||

Here's what I wrote in the other thread: On February 03 2008 04:10 SonuvBob wrote: Looks like they won't divulge their method (so people can't figure out how to abuse it). There's basically three voting patterns that skew the results: 1. People who are essentially "too nice" - always voting high (no 1's or 2's). Not a serious problem, but they raise the ratings of all the blogs they vote on, essentially lowering the blogs they don't read or vote on. Same with people who always vote low. I think at least at some point IMDB took this into account, normalizing each user's votes. 2. People who always vote 5 for things they like and 1 for things they hate, figuring their vote will carry more weight. This is easily detectable - if the standard deviation is close to 0 (always one particular number) or [update: avg(abs(3-rating)) is] 2 (all 1's/5's) for a user with more than a handful of votes, we can give their votes less weight. 3. Malicious users. Same as #2, except they tend to vote down all of a user's posts. These are easy to detect, but I'm not sure what to do with them. I guess we could have a voting ban or something. I just made a quick voting ban system for the users in group 3. 12 users added so far, and the ratings already look a lot more accurate. Poor d4d dropped like 8 spots because he's the only one who wasn't mass 1'd by anyone. :p | ||

dunno if this makes sense but, alright for example plexa makes an awesome 5/5 deserving post and votes are as followed.. 5: 200 4:10 3:10 2:10 1:50 it automatically accepts the 5, because that was the most popular one, so basically what im suggesting is no averaging for individual blogs | ||

If nobody gives a shit about the blog ratings system, it shouldn't be there. In order to justify it being there, a minor acknowledgment of the problem is all that is needed (and is already provided in this thread so the issue may rest). | ||

If you mean he's the funniest person in this thread, then perhaps.Lol Hot_Bid wins. 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 + burn!
