I have a rant!.....you can call me a whiner,bash or flame all that you want after I finish, I probably won't respond. I think the point system is unfair but I understand the reasoning behind it so I accept it. I'm not in the forum that much, I don't have the time, the verbage, and apparently, the sense of humor needed. I get most of my rating points by voting and that is where the rant starts. Over the last five days I have lost 64 points off my rating, due I'm sure to manipulations on the site. That's 640 votes! It takes a long time for 640 votes. I know the manipulations are necessary but should they result in the loss of points honestly earned? This has gone on since my first day on the site and while a ranking is a small thing the principle isn't. I'm no programmer, but if you can take them away there must be a way to stop it. So, how about a little fairness? I know I'm in the minority but this is for all of the little people who do it the hard way.
Thanks for letting me get it off my chest.

Most likely you've been voting on images that have been since removed. Unfortunately we have some picture mods that don't pay attention to what they are accepting. Thus as other people report the infractions they are removed. I think over this day alone, there have been about sixteen removed images.

thats the exact same thing that came to mind as well


our pic mods dont know every model and every picture in the database so they except TONS of shit that has to be removed once it is accepted. we're trying different things to stop this from happening at the beginning, but its still a work in progress.

i cant think of any other reason why VOTES would be removed we cant otherwise just remove them like we can uploaded pictures and comments..

A: I like your avy
B: I'm glad you became a sponsor
C: Because you are a sponsor you get all the bennies without really having to worry about the points
D: One of the things I really like about this site is that it isn't "perfect".... it's not glossed-pro porn site. There are issues.. but if you are willing to support their effort...someone is "usually" willing to listen
E: Keep coming back


Lastly... I'm just another schmuck here....not a mod..not an owner or anything like that. Just a guy with an asshole and an opinion.

What if for the picture moderation, it had two levels of mods instead of just one? Like the first mod would go through and grab the ones he knows out. Delete them. Then the ones he approves would go to a second level of mods for the same process.


In theory, that would work. But there's over 30,000 pics in queue now. It would take years!!
