Subject: Someone gave me 1,1,1...ON EVERY PARODY!
I woke up this morning and went to check on how my parodies were doing. Aparently someone went through the whole list and voted 1,1,1 on every single song!! My overall parody rating dropped from 4.3 to 4.0!!
WORDS CANNOT EXPRESS HOW ANGRY I AM!!!!!!!! >:( >:(
Subject: Re: Someone gave me 1,1,1...ON EVERY PARODY!
There's a "serial low voter" about, seemingly doing that to every parody. Probably just a mediocre writer, who also happens to be a jerk, trying to make his look better.

Don't worry about it! I've read some of your parodies and they don't deserve that!
Some people just don't get enough sex ;D

But there's not anything you can do, is there? I mean, it's impossible to find this guy. He's tortured the votes on just about every parody out here.
John, someone did the same to my parodies one night, too... funny, it was on a Saturday night, just like yours. My overall went from 4.2 to 3.7. >:( >:( >:( Fortunately, they are sloooowly starting to rise... :-/ >:( :(
And if it's possible, Hairspray, that there's anything you or Chuck can do about it, please let me know, although it's probably useless now, and besides Chuck has way too much else to worry about..
Subject: Re: Someone gave me 1,1,1...ON EVERY PARODY!
sorry.. but there really isn't much I can do about it.. we've discussed this in the past..
Subject: Re: Someone gave me 1,1,1...ON EVERY PARODY!
That is really crappy.... So far it hasn't happened to mine, but I am keeping my fingers crossed. Hopefully it is just some 'trolly' visitor to the site, and not someone who is actually writing.... :'(
Subject: Re: Someone gave me 1,1,1...ON EVERY PARODY!
I'm sorry. I didn't realize there was absolutely no way of preventing this. :-/
Subject: Re: Someone gave me 1,1,1...ON EVERY PARODY!
I feel your pain - been there, experienced that - it's quite annoying, but don't take it personally.
Subject: Re: Someone gave me 1,1,1...ON EVERY PARODY!
I'm thinking of doing something, to display how many 1's, how many 2's, etc. I haven't quite figured out how to display it yet, but I want to redesign the system to minimize the all 1's jerk

Good idea, oh Lord! (From Monty Python, I don't actually worship Chucky G... that much.)

"If he dies while writing it he wouldnt write ahhhh, he'd just say it!"
"Maybe he was dictating"

Subject: Re: Someone gave me 1,1,1...ON EVERY PARODY!
I don't know if this will help or not, but John Harvey and lebeiw15, I went and voted on some of you parodies. I hope this helps your scores!

Thanks! I just hope you voted honestly; I don't want to increase my vote count unfairly or anything. Apart from voting, I love getting feedback from the comments section too.

Yep... voted honestly on both of yours. (On the songs I haven't voted on before!)

John:
I can sympathize with you. Political parodies, especially those that are contrary to the beliefs of certain readers, who prompt a rash of 1-1-1 ratings. I should know. I get plenty of those, and they certainly can't ALL be blamed on the nameless, faceless "One Guy."

Personally I don't care what I get on votes. I write for myself, and if I like it then I'm satisfied. But if others like it, it makes me more happy. I would just leave it alone.
