Comments:
I understand ratings are supposed to express that player's attitude/performance within a game, not merely the fact that they won and somebody didn't like it, or came close to winning. The above are just a few examples from the numerous all 1 ratings this guy leaves.

thank you for bringing this to our attention. if you have any more info or any details pertinent to the case please feel free to add them. in the meantime we'll take a look at the situation and analyse it and we'll provide you with an answer as quick as possible.

1747825 is from 2008.
The examples have to be somewhat recent.

sorry about that - somehow it appears on the first ratings page. I thought the game number was lower because it was a speed game.

Keep in mind for ratings abuse,

If you are found guilty of Ratings Abuse---that is, rating your opponents unjustifiably, haphazardly, or systematically in a destructive or inappropriate manner (such as repeatedly giving out inaccurate ratings without evidence to justify your ratings), you will find yourself escalating on Ratings Vacation scale.

Game 11123220 - "2012-07-07 11:55:23 - mountain1024: wow.. i've won this game due to no merit of my own" and says "2012-07-07 11:54:35 - mountain1024: i've just now read the chat" at the end of the game. So in this instance the rating can be justified. You admit you didnt win on your merit and you say didnt read the chat again until the end.

Is the rating justified in this case? If someone told me they didnt read the chat until the end of the game, I'd be inclined to rate the 1's myself.

Im not trying to be hard on you here, but I want to be clear that a poor rating left is not always indicative of ratings abuse.

Game 11267330 - ok, I just went through the game chat on this one. the ratings in this one are also not abuse.

Thats 2 I looked in depth at that arent abuse, and 1 rating from 2008.

Im going to suggest foe and move on. I understand your frustration with an all 1 rating.

AlbroShlo has been cleared of ratings abuse.

The rating was tagged as "cheap tactics" although i believe none were used - i was prepared to lose the game quietly when the others started fighting and i was left the winner.
I got the rating not because of what I have done, but because of the fact AlbroShlo was pissed he didn't win.

I had no direct interaction within the chat with AlbroShlo - that's what i meant in the initial post.

The other 4 games are indicative of this behavior as well.
