So why exactly is this spam...

by v_Enhance, Apr 23, 2010, 4:31 AM

Can I ask exactly why this post here is considered :spam: ?

I'm kind of annoyed over this because I've only had 2 of my posts rated, so this has a very heavy weight, and I don't even know what I did wrong. :(

Although, I get the feeling no one is going to read this... :wink:

The post rating system is very unfair. Some people out there keep on rating others 1 on purpose. For example, there's one person who keeps targeting me.

Darn.
I guess I'm new to this, because I've only had two posts rated.... agh... now I am 2.53 because of one instance of bad luck. :(
Thanks for the feedback, though. It makes me feel (slightly) less unethical. :wink:

I have this feeling that ever since AoPS began its new avatar, there's been some mischief going on with the post rating system. I think there's someone who's simply rating posts randomly. I've seen posts with pretty much the same content (mostly regarding bugs), in different threads, being rated differently - one as "Poor (Spam)" and the other as "Excellent" or "Very good". Also, someone actually rated a post on the Indian General Discussion Forum as "Poor (Spam)"!!! I assure that never before in the history of the Indian Forum has this happened. Moreover, my rating dropped from 3.3 to 2.97 in a span of just 3 days (or less). Finally, have a look at this thread. Two posts of mine with substantial mathematical content were rated badly. See what happened after I made my third post!

Thanks for you feedback keyree10 and PhireKalk6781. :wink:
So I guess the big question is... is there anything we can do about it?
