Scoring Fraud

Since I recently started actively uploading babes, I've been watching the top 5 cycle closely and trying to figure something out. I know there's long been talk about the 1's, and it's never made sense to me either. I have a theory.

Here is a screen shot of the Top of the Babes page.



Now we all know that this page doesn't refresh scores on a constant basis, as the scores are never in perfect sync with real-time refreshes of individual babe scores, right?

At approximately 2:20 pm Eastern time I see all three of the top babes have dramatically lower scores and a rush of about 40 additional vote counts, most of which I'm willing to bet are 1's, mixed in with some naturally occurring votes. Screen shots of those pics in next post.

My theory is that at least 1 individual is logging in under fictitious accounts, voting 1 on other babes to keep their own near the top. Look at the IP's of log-ins near this time frame and I will bet you see rapid log ins, votes cast, log outs, new log ins with new name, votes cast, log out, etc..... until the scores have dropped.

I have no idea what it takes to trace something like this, but I would bet good money I'm right.

Yeah Honda, I figured it wouldn't be easy, but as a non-techi I'm always surprised at the information tools available and hoped it might be an easy investigation. I just sort of lucked into finding it, FWIW.

I know it's been a longstanding complaint, and here is a viable opportunity to fix it, if anyone really cares to.

PS: I don't know what time the TotBabes page recalculates, but you'd only have to check back from approximately 2:20 pm Eastern to whenever the recalc took place. (Yeah, I know "sounds easy".) I'm just trying to help.

Well folks, it is actually easier than you think to accomplish for "sudden" rating changes. One site that lets you log into here with an already-created fictitious account is: Bugmenot.com. Then search for whatboyswant.com and you'll find that there are about 2-5 active accounts that are valid in which someone has created. Some of those fictitious accounts DO have girl and/or video ratings on them because I logged into a couple just out of curiosity but didn't vote on anything or add/remove anything from the profile. Food, ermm.... porn for thought.

If the background tools of WBW enable a programmer to look at the IP/screen names of the last 40 vote casters for each of the three pics provided, and compare those results to each other, it could be an easy ID. I just don't have any idea if the WBW database can be sorted in a manner to provide that info.

Where are these screens at? I have only seen the typical screen that has been at WBW for a while now. Those look like they are from the new version.

The new version of WBW is going to have a listing of the last 100 votes given, so this will be easy for some of our detectives to figure out, if they're so inclined, at that time.

@ BM we do have a member here on WBW that has openly stated that he gives nothing but "1"s to any babe, no matter how hot, who is not naked - go figure!

WBW currently has two themes.
This the Dark Theme.
Go to the Frontpage scroll down to the theme selector.
Choose Dark theme , then apply.

I think you should go tell the guy in "Who's that Girl" who was asking about her earlier.
