what about voting without watching on the top 50. when i go to get my five entries a day i just go to bitey, vote 5, go to TSAH, vote 5, 8-bit theatre, vote 0, and so on. i dont really see why you guys would have a problem with voting like that on the top 50, but meh, if you do i will not do it. so does anyone care?

its just for judgement right?

is not such a bad idea, but i think it would be a nice idea for the users to see some of the banned users as like this is what will get you ... and then a tiger or something

I run away now

Response to Portal Voting 2004-12-07 00:28:34


I am kind of intimidated by this idea, not because I cheat, but because it sounds to me as if this can't possibly work effectively. The only way I, at least, can think of that you could check would be if a user voted 0 or 5 on every movie. I do vote 0 or 5 on every movie, because if I like something, I want to help it as much as possible, and if something is trash, I want to harm it as much as possilbe. In all my time here, I think I have only voted 3 or 4 a couple times. For example, I only kind of like Polar Rescue, but my vote power is only 5.something, so the only way I can even affect the score in time is to vote a five.

Please elaborate.

Are you saying that we can't see the first five seconds of a crap flash? And judge that it's awful?

Or can we not vote five on a friend's flash, when we don't have the time to view it?

Response to Portal Voting 2004-12-07 01:26:21


Ek! I'm glad I read this post. This a really good thing you're doing Wade, I hate people not watching my movies. Then again, dial up blows so I usually have to vote on the movie then watch it for it to count :/ Oh well, all in all a very good thing. *thumbs up*

Response to Portal Voting 2004-12-07 01:32:33


i have to admit I have done this a little in the past. Not to the extent that I have ranked up 25,000 blam/save points but more randomly. Incidentally I don't really blam or protect these days I mainly just focus on depositing the exp points through eaither voting on my flash, something ive seen before or using the random portal entry feature.

I know a friend of mine likes to blam and protect but im sure that he atleast views the movie/game before he votes because it gives him a better indication of what to vote.

Anyway I'll warn everyone I know just to be safe.

If you're talking about the movies that are >50kbs, then yeah, I can see why you would blam it straight away. Also, there's the porno slides, and other offensive material. But then you should also just blow the whistle on them when you see them.

Yeah. Same here man.
I already started changed my voting attitude.
I even try to review more movies now, I mean, those I vote low on, just to tell them what was wrong and everything, and what they should change, and why.

I feel as if I were RELOADED. :)

You would think that those users with high voting power would now that don't need to have to vote 5 on things to protected them. You can get still get it by voting 2, 3, 4. I can understand them voting 0 on things that they wanted blammed, because if you give a one you will raising the score of something you don't want NG. This raises the chance of it staying.
They should also know that if they want to get points, it is easier to pick them up if you know what the flash content is. You shouldn't be allowed to vote just on the preloader. I'm not total guilt free, but I've have got better as my Elite guard was raised. I think this plan is good for ng, as lon as users will not get in trouble for voting 0 on things they want blammed. As I've said already would don't want to be voting 1 and saving something that you don't thing should be on NG.

Response to Portal Voting 2004-12-07 06:30:06


I always watch the movies. The ones I like, I watch all the way through, so I can put my best (most accurate) vote for the movie. When a shitty movie comes through the portal, then you can tell, by the animation within the first 10-20 seconds, so that is when I'll stop watching and flick the 0 vote.

I never vote 1, because if I want something to be blammed, then it should get 0. No exceptions. Ever.

Good new rules, I like them

What if it were to get better after the first 10-20 seconds and they just made the beginning shitty to throw people off??

Response to Portal Voting 2004-12-07 09:19:15


Hey Wade, just so you know, this morning I came online and found 8 Under Judgment movies, with only about 100kb between them, and I blammed them all without watching, but that was before I saw this thread. Since then, i've only caught one movie Under Judgment, and I sat through it in its entirety, and I will continue to do so for other movies.

Apologies for my past behavior.

1 - The movies is really crappy, but the author was probably trying to do his best, but really has a lot to learn about Flash.

2 - The author put effort into the entry, it's not that bad, but you just don't care for it. This would be if you heard a Country song that sounded well done, but you hate Country music. It doesn't deserve to be blammed, but you don't think it should win an award.

3 - The entry was well done and you enjoyed it, but you're not running around telling everyone you know to check it out.

4 - The entry was above average, it stood out, and you might recommend it for other people to watch.

5 - The entry was fantastic! You enjoyed it very much, and you wuold probably tell people to check it out.

Come to think of it, maybe you should add all that in the "voting" section in FAQ to make sure new users won't vote 0 on a well made flash they simply don't like.

Response to Portal Voting 2004-12-07 10:52:50


well sometimes I can only watch maybe 30 secs of a flash before my eyes will explode... so I vote 0... I dont watch the entire thing... is that wrong? I mean If I know its gonna suck within the first few mins... why must I suffer for the rest of the time?
