roprotem (ratings abuse) [cleared]

Accused:

roprotem



The accused are suspected of:

Other: Ratings Abuse



Game number(s):

Game 5104146



Comments: Roprotem's Ratings Left Page shows that he's given an inexplicably bad rating to KSig44 also, who was another opponent in the above mentioned game. I don't expect 5 stars from everyone and I personally wouldn't want them either, but roprotem is clearly retaliating against KSig44 and myself for not allowing him to win. The rating bears no accuracy or relation to how either KSig44 or myself played in that game. This is just sour grapes.

Two ratings doesn't justify abuse. You need more than that.

He's a sore loser, but you must have done something to him in that game to make him sour. Unless this is a continuous thing, I don't really think it's ratings abuse.

Look down on his first page of left ratings... there is far more than 2... in fact there are parts where it is all 1's.

He handed out all 1's with the tags: Irrational, Suicider, Cheap Tactics

Not just to myself but to KSig44 also, it's retaliation for not letting him win, you need only check the chat log to see how obvious it is. I've been lambasted for handing out lower than expected ratings myself, the key difference being that I don't give all 1's unless that person has really asked for it. To suitably motivate me into giving them all 1's, they'd have to play very, very badly AND use dishonest strategy and cheap tactics AND give lots of bad attitude. Issues like this always require adjudication on the merits of the case because of subjectivity, I don't anticipate any action beyond a 'noted' and/or a 'warned'.

I haven't looked into this one, nor am I going to, but this forum should not be used to complain about a single rating that you think is undeserved. It seems to me like too many people are trying to do that, which was the precise problem with the old feedback system. I'd recommend saving the complaints for actual cases of systematic abuse and not just the sparingly unwarranted ratings.

Cleared. His given low ratings are within reason.

Thank you NS.
