We all know the mods have a tough enough time trying to catch the multi's and bigots but why are we wasting there time on rating abuse ? could we not have a separate forum for this ?

considering the fact that 99.99% of people aren't leaving ratings as they are meant to be left (*) i'd say completely remove the notion of ratings abuse.


(*)an average player should have a rating of 3. right now if you have bellow 4.5 you're considered a problematic user.

I have a 4.4 and the main reason for that is that I will not abide someone who bitches about dice. If people want to 1 star me for that, f*ck em.

Example: Game 11475158

is the suggestion that there should be a seperate forum for rating"abuse" reports?
really>?!? why?

also remember this.[NOTE: personal opinion] Where the instructions state that 3 stars is average, ask yourself this: Would you spend hours and hours of time on something and someone that is of only average quality?
E.g. take your friends, your friends should mean more to you then the average unknown joe of the street.
So if i would rate someone as a 3, i would essentially say, dude, i dont know you, you are no friend of mine, i did not particullary enjoy my time with you. You are just one in a crowd and please stay there.
so yes, anything below 4 is a serious indication that that player is no fun at all. Even haters have lovers and not everybody likes eachother, but if the majority dislikes you, you must do something wrong(in their eyes)
In short, getting a series of 1's is(might be) bad for your future CC carreer and might be the result of rating abuse, but seriously, a seperate forum? that would solve nothing

i think that rating abuse is a waste of time so move it to a separate forum where it can be looked at when the mods have time so they can be looking at real abuse first.

I only care about ratings 'cause I will use it as an indication for strategy.
Besides that it's useless.
Arguing about it seems useless too. Why even bother? IMO the admins don't have to waste time on it anyway.
