So can we all.. Policeboy is now a FOE.

BTW. To revenge rate (poorly rate those who beat you) is an abuse.

I am well aware of that, which is why that is not part of the accusation, just a comment I made.

Firstly, that is impossible for me to have done seeing as we have only one game together and I could not see the rating he gave me when I rated him.

Secondly, I have always foed people who "farm" by foeing anyone that beats them, but I have only recently began rating people. I think a 1 star rating is well deserved for someone who foes you as soon as you finish a game with them.

I think its safe to assume that you are right in the fact that he is mis-using the rating & tag system to be a retaliation to a loss in a game.

I'm not going to go through and write out specific instances because a quick look at the game history of those on his first page of ratings he has given will show almost everyone he gave a 1 star rating to where games that he lost, and most have tags associated with them that are not logical. The member was also convicted of a multiple account a year ago Found here. So given his Behavior he will most likely receive a Warning for his new offense and be skirting a dangerous line of abuse in the site that could eventually get him a Temporary Ban.

King Sam

I earned my ratings from him myself... after beating him 4 out of 5.

I dont mind the ratings, but it would have been nice if I didnt get foed... love taking points from people on their favorite map.

:D

Neon..

PoliceBoy revenge rates. He seems to 1 star those he loses to. Not you.

Not sure how you saw my post directed at you but it wasn't. :D

Exactly what I thought. :lol:


This guy revenge-rates. I think this should be dealt with. Perhaps a ban from giving ratings?
