Handle id #3733 : Smalltown Boy
So some idiot with three fake accounts, or two idiots (one having have fake account), or even three separate idiots have given smalltown boy 1 point in the voting chart.
Why we tolerate such things. Users here were asking for this all the time. Even the poll was made for this. And what happened? User CAN permit that his votes aren't anonymous. Well if you guys at CSDB cleaned the mess after fake voters without disclosing their identity I wouldn't mind if the voters stayed anonymous, but you don't do that.
This whole system is so unhealthy that it doesn't have any reason to exist. None of your partial solutions helped the get rid of this problem. So either make visible voting or disable votes of invisible voters completely so they wont be affecting charts. That will save those idiots of any reactions from people who care and it will separate votes of grownup civilised people from votes of primitives.

I have to agree with you - this is exactly the sort of situation I knew would happen when we were discussing anonymous/open voting.
I haven't voted on many things in the CSDb, but when I have I've voted high - for things that deserve it. Downvoting sucks. |

You can give low votes to those who deserve it. A crappy production can earn a 3.
But giving a 1 to someone that produces descent gfx/code/msx whatever sucks. This is not because of the production, but to lower the average (downvoting) or some jealousy/sick motive. BOTH SUCK HARD! make those people visible, i'm sure noone would mind ;)
and hey, anyone can discuss or defend his rating, why not. |

So should I be ignorant? Tolerant? Careless? I'm not tolerant towards this kind of injustice and shameless lame manipulation.
Cut those anonymous idiots of any privileges they don't deserve any tolerance <Put any incredible ammount of exclamation marks here.>! |

You're right, but there is no need for some of the deliberate downvoting that goes on. I'm sure the downvoting on Smalltown Boy has a lot to do with his comments on www.c64.sk about the SIDCOMPO and Ed - in fact that's why CreaMD started this thread. |

Yes that's what lead me to react. I have finally decided to have a strong stand about this subject. Finally after so many months of partial solution there must be some final cut on this.
a) don't allow anonymous voters to vote!
b) reveal all voters!
c) drop all this unfair and lame system down completely coz it's getting sicker and sicker as it is being abused all the time and none of the math solutions work!
please!

Hmmm, or at least maybe somebody could reveal those downvoters' names (as long as they're not like "jack2511"...) to show that voting here is not as much anonymous as they might have thought? |
