Cleaning time in the Sputnik Site forum. :) Same procedure as with the old one. If you spotted a bad review, or see a user making trouble (bad comments etc) post in here.
IMPORTANT: Provide a link to the review/user profile you're referring to!

Bumping old reviews to badmouth the albums.

This is ridiculous. My average rating has plunged from 1.0 to 0.89 in a week and I've never had a negative comment in any of my reviews. :(
Damrod
09-04-2005, 05:12 PM
*sigh*
It seems to be up to 0.92 now, but we're working on getting Damrod and I the ability to see who voted on reviews. As soon as that happens,then I'll be looking over the voting history on reviews and for users that this sort of thing has happened to, and if there's systematic abuse of the voting features, then people are going to be getting banned for a long time. Until then we just have to wait, basically. It's seriously pathetic though.
And you can bet on it I will do the same. It's buggin' me big time as well.
Dave de Sylvia
09-04-2005, 05:25 PM
It's happened to quite a few people. There's quite a few in the Top 15 who have artifiically low average ratings.
Indeed. I feel like the only one who hasn't pissed anyone off.

Just a note, just in case you have not noticed: Mods now can ban from Sputnik and see who voted in what way on a review. So, if you have the suspicion someone is on a Vendetta against you by voting all or most of your reviews negative, let us know. We'll track the user down, if that's really the case

I have not spotted any bad posts, the ones on the ACDC review I saw were ok.
Have you seen really bad ones to justify actions against him?
Aside from bumping all the AC/DC reviews again?
The one I saw last night that I randomly opened to had this comment:
yeah, whats this guy listen to?(tenfootbrett). probobaly some of that poser rock **** like green day and ****
So, this was my thought process:
1. /me opens up Sputnikmusic to the main page
2. /me notices ALL the AC/DC reviews were bumped
3. /me looks at last poster
4. /me recognizes username, remembers he did this before
5. /me opens up one of the reviews at random
6. /me sees one stupid post, assumes the others are like that
Heh.

I did it, but I dont have time yet to explain why. There isnt any need to pester the mods anyway when one person doesnt like your review of it. This isnt random, and the mods do not need to get rid of my opinion of your review just because you want a perfect score.

Heldbackbytheban. Banned for spamming every review on the front page with variations of "it takes x for x, that's why I chose you. e.g "It takes a longitudinal narrator to emancipate a longitudinal narrator, that's why I chose you." He also just went for the more conventional approach of inane insults.

Can you give a link to one of your reviews?
EDIT: Never mind, already found one :)
I looked through some, and currently I see nothing we mods could do. The user rating of an album is completely up to the user, and if a user does not comment bad (like "Your musical taste sucks, you should go home and suck your dads whang for reviewing something like this. 0.5/5') we can not pin him/her down. Sorry.
On the other hand, I found someone who voted a big bunch of your reviews negative. I'll contact him, and I see a ban coming. :)

Laafe is posting stupid insults against Slipknot that don't have to be so immature. It's not to big of a deal at the moment, just stopping something before it escalates.
being satanic and reverting humans to a primal state is being creative?
slipknot sucks. they always have sucked and they always will suck. they are just noise. no rhythm melody or even beat. noise.

Thank you. I'm glad I'm only out for two weeks instead of a permanent. Me and Damrod talked about me neg-voting reviews in the past. He said I might be banned for it, but since a long while passed and he never did, I thought I was fine. :( I didn't think I was doing it much now either. Either way, I'll just have to take it easy I guess.
I was never trying to screw anyone or lower their rating, I just have unnecessarily high expectations apparently.

No...either Damrod or I (and obviously mx as well) can ban people from sputnik exclusively. Supermods can't ban people from sputnik at all. However, all bans handed out by Damrod or myself are permanent, as if in we don't have an "unban" button, so literally, they can't be lifted. That might (should) change in the future, although mx needs to code it in. Basically, rather than banning you from sputnik permanently, Damrod got a supermod to ban you from the forums and sputnik for 2 weeks. We couldn't just ban you from sputnik for 2 weeks, or we would have done.
Well, when you put it like that, I'm glad you did. I'd rather be banned from both for two weeks then to be perm banned from sputnik.

Exactly the point. I had two options:
a) ban you (ShadowsFallen) and Constant myself. That would mean you can NEVER in the near future (unless a new ban system is introduced for us) post comments, reviews, or rate.
or
b) let you be banned by a SuperMod, which is the harder solution in the short term (as you can not access the forums with your account), but IMO the softer solution in the lon run regarding Sputnik, as you will still be able to post your reviews, comments and rate under your known account.
I thought that would be better and, in the end, more appreciated. I know it's bad that this goes hand in hand with a forum ban, but it's the only way we have to ban people non-permanent

You guys [Med + Damrod] should strongly consider banning three of his accounts and making him stick to one. A vast majority of his OMG!!! posts are basically gimmick posts and he hasn't done jack to contribute to the site in a positive way. All of his posts are spam.

Spotted some of his recent posts, and he's gone. I'll look around and see how far his spamming reaches and if he made valuable posts in the past, otherwise I'll purge all his comments.
Thanks for pointing out guys :)
Purge 'em all.
I never saw a single constructive comment from him. He needs to find something better to do than fail at being an Ethan on Sputnikmusic.
Also, shoot him an e-mail saying, if he chooses, to re-submit his reviews on his first account because you're going to perm his other accounts and delete the reviews. I don't see the point in having more than one account on Sputnikmusic. Or, just perm his other accounts except his first one.
Ideally, I'd want you to perm them all after what he's done, but that's not exactly "fair," even though he shouldn't get a fair shake anyway.
Hell, look at one of his posts with his Eliminator, Jr. account. "Well, since they deleted my posts, I guess I'm going to have to re-post."
It's like, are you kidding me? Why do you think they were deleted?

In all fairness, they're not accounts for spam purposes. To my knowledge he now has 2 accounts, in Eliminator Jr. and Holland, 1945. One's ranked #2 on the site, and when I checked earlier the other was ranked #19. As I said earlier in this thread we don't ban people for just having multiple accounts, so long as they don't break the rules on each account (within reason, obviously). I don't see a reason to ban his second account.

Yeah, you're still banned. From what I've heard, you can view the site even if you're banned, but you can't comment, or post reviews. Presumably you can't do anything else on there either, i.e vote on reviews or rate albums either.
I like this ban system. I can't post, rate, vote, or submit anything, but I can still view and edit my reviews.

Flamed me very rudely in the forums. Using obscene language and homophobic slurs. I'm a noob but I read the rules and thats not allowed.
He picked my AIM sn out of my profile on the forums. Then harresed me on AIM. He said n00bs are not welcome. Don't ever post again, called me anti gay slurs. To me thats a misuse of someones AIM sn being in their profile.
Could someone do something please? thanks to whoever runs the site in advance for your time and help...
It doesn't have anything to do with sputnik, and ultimately I don't get involved with what people say on IM services to each other, so it's up to the two of you to sort it out. Just block him if you don't want to talk to him.
I kinda have to say that I believe Jason when he says he didn't do it.
PS: HoboHead and BoboTheRagingHobo aren't the same user.

Question for Med. When you perm banned WilliamDieBoer was it a IP ban? I think it should be since after that guy got banned he still spammed the forums and if he makes another account he might start neg voting people like me or other people who reported him and I don't want that to happen.
IP bans won't solve anything - it will just create more problems.

It seems u guys wanna have ur voices heard cuz for once u stopped lookin at gay sites, took ur hand outa ur pants and decided "hey, why dont i just piss ppl off!!" suck a lemon's rear-end
eliminator, i think ur a little confused here. This site is meant to give reviews on albums dude. Then you comment on how the review was formatted. Thats why it asks if the review was well written or not. You dont go and start offending ppl senselessly, which is the point i wanted to make
^Elim. Jr. wasn't doing that from what I read.

Because sputnik still has that annoying big where slashes are automatically added next to any quotation marks. And since the newly updated vBulletin requires quotation marks in tags now (ex, [SIZE= "2"]) the tags I use to format them in and conceal the periods ( [COLOR= "Black"] ) doesn't read correctly.

IamHoppus' review of Blink 182's self-titled album is the one that is tagged when every other review for it is better than his. I don't care if mine isn't the one that ends up being tagged(although it is the best:naughty: ) just as long as it isn't his.

They can't tag reviews yet. Believe me, I tried, but they politely told me that they can't do it yet, and I was on my merry way.

also i get the feeling that kripes is trying to pick everything i do to pieces

no, hoppus, you cant see. Personally I think you're just paranoid, and Kripes simply has enough balls to tell you how bad your reviews are.
