I've written a script tonight that created a report to look at the abuse regarding the negative ratings after multiple complaints and have noticed a few users that are abusing it badly, which includes racking up a lot of negative totals toward other users. I can now see exactly who you're unloading on and it needs to stop.
I'll be reversing these over the next couple of days and have over a dozen people who are involved in this practice and am going to have to set aside time to go through and manually write queries to delete them as it will require essentially over 50 queries to clear them all out, as well as run the function to recalculate them.
I think most of us are over the age of 18 on here so I'd like to think we're above that kind of behavior. I'm going to be running this report now each night to see how many negative ratings are handed out by certain individuals (and you know who you are, so consider this your one "get out of jail free card" to change your behavior) and it also shows me who you're apparently not getting along with by who you're slamming with those ratings, and if it continues I'll be revoking your ability to use them at all. For those being nailed by these people, don't retaliate as I'll see who is hitting you to begin with and will take care of it accordingly. If you retaliate, you're creating more work for me .
Needless to say, just stop it. If you disagree or dislike a post by someone, don't proceed to hit the next 10 because you're angry. If it's that bad and what the person says annoys you, put them on ignore and just move on. Because this is just ridiculous.
