Requiring a member be registered two weeks before rating simfiles Ok, here's the deal: I am completely sick of people rating my simfiles 1's for no apparent reason. I bet you're wondering what this has to do with anything? Well, from what I've heard and experienced myself 95% of these stupid ratings come from morons who have been members for only a few days. See, a lot of people probably register just to be fags, and drop bad ratings on people for no reason whatsoever. If you were to make it so that users have to be registered two weeks (maybe more) before rating sims then I imagine this problem would almost entirely disappear. Now, I know how lately people have been all for getting more ratings on their simfiles (including me), but if all my ratings are going to be from idiots who have no idea what they're talking about and are just being jerks then I rather not have any in the first place. IMO, this is a must!
I think it would also be nice if you were to make so that a user MUST download a simfile before rating it (comments are okay, because you may report them). I guarantee they're people who just go around randomly rating simfiles.
Another thing would be to make all rating of 3, and below reportable to the staff.
I am completely sick of all these ratings (whether they be 10's or 1's), and something must be done! |
