What's downvoting...
Quoting Shine
"LOVE TO THE NEGATIVE DOWNVOTERS..."
Means what exactly?
Just curious, what is a downvote in your opinion, Knight Rider?

Feel free to lead (yet another) philosophical debate on the definition of downvoting here, but pretty please not in entry comments ffs
and behave...
*opens his umbrella for weather forecast tells me to expect shitstorm and heavy vote whining tears rains*
An example from some drama last summer: Voting a 2 on something with zero downloads (which means someone votes it lower than 10 without even downloading the file), now THAT's definetely downvoting in my book
PS: @the current release overly hard 5s are outweiged by overenthusiastic 10s pretty well currently imho |

Yeah, but the result (clear my votes of Evil Groepaz or Stupid TheRyk for example) would really be "Pippi Langstrumpf" way (making/faking your own world/reality). And if you continue the idea it would result in "ignore everyone's vote but my own" (unless everyone agrees my shite is 10+) |

Quoting TheRykAnd if you continue the idea it would result in "ignore everyone's vote but my own" (unless everyone agrees my shite is 10+) If. Idea would be to just ignore the odd troll. :) |

Which boils down to the exact same thing, obviously :) |

Frantic, I think it's the donor status that makes people entitled to genie wishes. ;-) |

Quote: I've been asked very recently why I voted on one compo prod 10 and other 9 (as you can guess, author of the 9 was pming me :P). I explained as well as I could what constitutes 10 in my book (and you probably know my scale is reeeeaaaallyyyyy biased upwards) but I died inside a little that I had to explain it in first place to guys in their 40s or 50s :(
Hey, Jammer, let me jump in here as I'm the person (I think) you're referring to. I would have hoped you got it from what should have been a friendly question from one scener to another, but let me try and explain the intent of my PM as you raised it here.
I was simply seeking some feedback on the release and was curious about your thought process, I wasn't questioning the scoring or suggesting that you'd got it wrong, which I tried to explain (probably unsuccessfully) in my PM.
I had noticed a couple of 10s on some of the other releases so was just trying to establish what, in your book, I could do different next time. I had hoped it was a harmless question, but it clearly wasn't perceived as such and for that I sincerely apologise. You were one of the few public votes and we're connected and have exchanged messages on FB so thought it was OK if I reached out.
I'm a firm believer in continuous feedback and was just trying to understand what makes you say "Wow, love this one!" as I hadn't hit that mark this time around. If you don't ask for feedback you miss an opportunity to learn. It was all very well intended, and I apply that approach daily at work, both in terms of providing and seeking feedback from bosses, peers and from people in my own teams. It works.
Anyway, I wish you would have told me straight off the bat that you didn't appreciate the ask. I most certainly didn't want to kill a bit of you on the inside, what would we do without that positive spirit (and amazing music) of yours!
I guess I've learned something at the end even if it wasn't what I was initially looking for ;)
You take care my friend!! |

Believe me - you and all Atlantis guys rock enough already, regardless if I give a 9 or 10 for any single piece :D |

Was more the feedback (which you kindly provided) than the number itself I was asking about, but I now also know that perhaps the question needs to be framed differently and not land completely unannounced ;) |
