Downvoting, for what reasons?

Seems I got two inverse mega fans. They gave me a set of 1 point votes.

I was a bit interested in finding out who that was, since I've never heard of them or seen any posts from either of them on CSDb.

The votes in question are registered to Auslaender and abracadabra, which is perfectly ok, if they think I suck...

At first I just clicked the abracadabra link and some pretty empty profile with a picture of a magician showed (refered to a guy call Mira, too!). I thought, hmm, strange.. Maybe someone who'd like to conceal himself or something... Didn't think much of it to be honest.

I wasn't untill another one showed. Auslaender!. Strange handle, but then again, we're strange people most of us.. I wonder who that is!.. No profile, when doing a profile search.. Though I'd search the forum for posts, and .. bang... All my indifferent discussions with Nata showed, only Nata showing as Auslaender!.. Sigh!.. Why?.. For what use?.. I don't get it.. He can vote me all the way to the bottom of the list for all I care, but I'm really disappointed.. I hope someone else hacked his profile or something, because that would mean that I didn't misjudge Nata in the past.

Ed: I'd consider anonymously voting a 1 for any non-buggy demo without explaining the vote in a comment as down-voting. Similarly I'd consider an anonymous 10 without comment as up-voting.

That said, I'm not that fond of anonymous voting at all.

Obviously, there is no big point in this ranting since the will to change this retarded anonymous system is lacking. This database would seriously benefit from having a system where a user would have to be verified by 2 to 5 users to be able to change, delete and vote.

Going a little OT:

Wouldn´t it be a bit hard to implement such restrictions concerning change/delete?
Someone new comes here,uploads something but needs verification to change (=complete) it?

tch.. hmm, I could be wrong, but it should not be that hard not to have restrictions on your own up/downloads, since it's logged which users ups something.. or am i wrong here?

this can go on forever if you dont see clearly that:

cheating (down/upvoting) will be possible in any system.

even if we have a policeman beside every scener, then the scener can pay some money to him, to let him do nasty stuff :)

IMHO the best would be a system where every vote is transparent. then the only option left is fake handles, which can be noticed easily.
