A rating is an opinion, but it must have some sort of reasoning behind it or everyone could abuse the system and rate poorly or generously with no care in the world and the system would be an inaccurate assessment.
If someone is suspected over ratings abuse, meaning they have inaccurately rated and tagged players unjustly over a period of time (not just a few games) then you report it here.
We then research the claim. Go in and look at the tags and ratings the offender has left and see if there is any reason at all that could garnish that player for feeling that way. We dont take sides. If there is a dispute in chat and the player leaves a tag or a rating because of that dispute then they very well could have had a just cause for feeling that way and therefor are not in violation given that instance.
Now if it is the opposite, if we find players just leaving untrue tags and unjust ratings because of revenge or what have you then they are found to be violating the rating guidelines and they are punished as per the guidelines. Which is 1st a Warning and then if it continues they start to receive vacations from Ratings until their privileges to Rate are revoked completely.
This account was remotely investigated for Ratings, but it was evident to us that it looked to be a multiple account, and with the additional accounts on multiple accounts getting suspended it made no sense to go down the Ratings Road as this account will be Guested and no longer a member on the site.
