Voting system?

Re: Voting system?

I could change the avatar and it would still happen. That has nothing to do with it.

I haven't exactly made an ass out of myself, and I'd say I'm pretty well respected. I'm a decent player, and I'm nice to most people (except the idiots).

Re: Voting system?

Re: Voting system?

I happened to be looking at that list in foil's thread, apparently I was on it. Now, while I am often on FFR at 6:40 in the morning, I had never been to his profile until about 20 minutes ago. I don't know if anyone pointed this out, but a lot of the accounts serving up the tasty downvotes in both foil and QuadCore's cases are forum regulars, such as TeRa, Wilkin, Tokzic, Chaz, and myself. Maybe it's a good thing I recently changed my password...

If I show up on your downvote list, it wasn't me unless I say otherwise in size 4 bold font.

I confronted a few of those people, and some spoke out in my thread claiming that they too have never even been to my page. I just recently changed my password as well, so it's not that either.

Also, yeah, a lot of these votes are from forum regulars...but some aren't. I don't necessarily think there's a pattern in it.

What I did notice is that when someone who has never seen my page visits it, and then doesn't vote, I'll automatically get a thumbs down. Like say they see my name on a score list and they click on me, and then go back to the forums or something, I'll get a thumbs down. If you thumb me up on the first visit, then I can't get a down vote. That's about as far as any patterns go. I don't know what to say for people who've never even been to my page and somehow end up giving me down votes.

Long story short, I think page views are somehow being manipulated to become down votes.

I bet we're getting the same down votes at the same time.
