CSDb voting system

I know that the voting system have been discussed before. But things tend to be questionable when people gives 1 point for Vanja's work. It's clear that some people just down vote really good entries for some reason. And it is always "anonymous" voting too. Noone seems to stand for their down votes, making them totally useless in my eyes.

I like the voting system, and think we should have one, but I really think we should stop allowing anonymous voting! The whole system fucks up when it's used.

Down voting sucks!

Personally I always found your stuff good and it only got better by time. Now, more than 10 years ago I still look back at your old stuff and change my ideas, my votes.

So this whole group/release/person reset it probably one of the worst ideas I have ever heard. I think it is all up to us to decide whether to change our votes or not. Not some automated system

(by the way, you tell me, is there a possibility of automating the votesystem? In that case we could easily have a machine doing the voting as well!)

yes, i really believe that its just a handful of sceners changing their votes for groups and sceners after some time ;-) and why would somebody who eventually retired during the last years come back to csdb and change his votes? :-) thats why i think the votings for sceners and groups should be reset sometimes (no need to do that for releases because they dont change) or should be disabled.

Releases don't change, but people's feelings about them do.

you quoted me - maybe you should have quoted TDJ instead :) ... i dont think it would be useful to reset the votes for the productions. i just think that it would be necessary to reset the votes for groups and sceners - because their skills can change - i hope you got my point.

@TDJ... well, sure you can change mind about a production. but you made your voting-decision based on fixed facts (productions dont change anymore)... but skills of sceners and groups can change, so the facts may change

I think ppl should realize that there's no flawless voting system, and take votings less seriously.

yup, i think its not possible to create a perfect voting system. but its possible to improve it and make it a little more significant.

I don't want to stirr too much attention towards that but just FYI, Vanja's secret admirer has been banned. The voting system allows to unban account too but that won't likely happen in this case because of fake E-mail. According to owner of domain where the e-mail of the user was pointing, such E-mail never existed there. I would also like to assure you that in accordance with Rule 6. ( http://noname.c64.org/csdb/help.php?section=rules ) we won't tolerate obvious cases of anonymous retaliatory downvoting.
