Conquer Club

Accused:

DarthMagneto



The accused are suspected of:

Other: Ratings Abuse


Game number(s):

Game 7952217 Slow, Irrational, Reckless, Poor Strategy
Game 7951298 Deadbeat, Irrational, Poor Strategy
Game 7945602 Deadbeat, Irrational, Clueless, Poor Strategy
Game 7925953 Irrational, Reckless, Clueless, Poor Strategy

In some of his games the poor ratings and tags could be justified, but in most (as sampled above) it seems to be revenge ratings for bad luck, bad drop, losing, etc...

Link to ratings given: http://www.conquerclub.com/player.php?mode=ratings2&username=DarthMagneto




Comments: In most games he won, he gives out 4 star ratings with Quick and Cooperative ratings. Most games (if not all) that he loses, 1 star with mostly same tags. I believe there is consistency that could be considered ratings abuse.

Possible ratings abuse, but I honestly don't think it's worth crying over a rating... Especially when you've got a 4.7... Notifying Mr. DarthMagneto of your thread.

-Sully

On second thought, maybe your report isn't so silly after all. Here was his response to my PM:

I'm not complaining about me personally being given a bad rating. I'm not asking that the ratings he gave me are removed.

What I am asking is that he is given a warning for consistently giving out bad ratings whenever he loses a game. It may be a silly rule, but it's still da rules.

So what's the reason for a ratings system if people are just going to abuse it?

Ratings are well...over rated...I attach little value to one bad rating...I had this guy pimpbot rate me as a deadbeat and clueless yet I missed no turns and won the game...http://www.conquerclub.com/game.php?game=3277669

I complained as well...rating is still there...I don't care...you should not either...

Did you even bother reading through the above posts?

I don't care about the rating he left me. This report is not about a single rating that he left.
He is consistently abusing the ratings system, and should be punished accordingly.

Yes I did read it...and I am on your side...mellow out...waste of time...you posted and they will warn him...you hope...

rating system sucks and its abused all the time, nothing will happen here but a little warning. At least that is what happened when i reported something similar / worse then this one.

-griff

and if they get a couple of warnings the ability to rate is removed

Yes I agree the old way was better posative negative or neutral feedback was better then the ratings. This way just sucks as it is when u get 1 complaint about it everyone else seems to go rushing through there ratings to see who they can complain about

Exactly. The system isn't very good as it is, we can at least try to take the abusers out...

If itsw not good then take the sy7stem out till they find a better system

But if the problem is the person doing the rating then don't blame an imperfect system. The point about the rating system is that it is subjective, so you have to just suck up the fact that sometimes you will get a bad rating which you feel is undeserved. However when someone consistently misuses the rating system they should be banned from using it.

yes but how aimportaant is it to have a 5.0 rating... ehy heres a hint ITS JUST A FING ONLINE GAME A RATING WONT HURT YOU

Who's worse - the one doing the complaining, or the one repeatedly screaming at him to stop complaining? It seems to me that you don't have a horse in this race, so I'm not sure what you're getting all worked up about. It's a valid complaint.

yes but its a waste of peoples time

basic_man2010_20 wrote:yes but its a waste of peoples time

Really? 164 games in and your rated 3.7. That speaks volumes. So ratings aren't a complete waste of time and its up to us to protect the system as best as we can.

Bye.

and im glad of my 3.7 i woulkd be glad of it if i had a .1 i would be glad if i had a 5.0 the ratings are a total waste of time

Quality response

Anything on this yet?

*Bump*

No need to bump, the C&A Team are probably discussing his case now.

DarthMagneto has been WARNED.
