Is leaving 3 stars overall to everyone considered rating abuse?

i'd say no as it is a avrage rating

[SlayerQC]

so 95% of the people that guys play is average, even the winners? while everyone else leaves him 4-5 stars, seems unfair to me.

then report him

Well there are those that rate starting at 3. Some that think the system was designed that way. Most of us don't believe it to be so.

But anyway Don't waste your time filing a complaint. Not all ratings are 3 stars. It will not be found as an abuse unless the tags are constantly being used falsely and vindictively.

You know. Like what it looks like you do sometimes.

Thats too bad, the guy seems to be missing lots of turns and he mostly rate 3stars overall while he gets better ratings...

I mean, he's been around a while and keeps getting better ratings than he gives, you'd think he would adjust to the masses instead of keep on doing it.
At least not leave any ratings.

Well, one more to my foe list. I played fine, said GL and such and behaved, I sure dont want to get all 1 stars if I ever play him again. Bet ya if you say something, the ratings get lower. Sad part is that he's a freemium that never contributed to the site and if you ask me, he reduces the experience of the site for many players.

If you can find multiple ratings that are obviously WRONG, like with tags and stuff, then he might be able to be brought up with charges. But it might be tough...

[SlayerQC]

No tags.

Just mainly 3 stars, a few lower and higher, but barely any.

Oh well.

No star= N/A
1 Star= Poor
2 Stars= Below Average
3 Stars= Average
4 Stars= Above Average
5 Stars= Very Good

A vast majority of the community rates on a curve towards the upper end, which we do not consider abuse unless they are grossly rating players like this when they don't deserve it.

When someone receives a ratings abuse punishment it is because they are misusing the system by rating or tagging players inaccurately over and over, regardless if its rating poorly or good.

The 1st line of defense in ratings should be that the person receiving the rating try to talk with the person that is handing it out to discuss the thoughts behind the rating. If you come across a player that you see is overall rating and tagging inaccurately then report it in C&A, but if your just upset about a rating you received then Foe that user and use the comment box on the rating to discuss your opinion.

Moving to GD.
