Or maybe there should be some penalty, (a suspension or removing the ability to enter opinions), for those users that would enter a review such as this one?


A word limit would just put people of OP'ing vids. 1 line ops are fine as long as they leave a small sentence in each box. Not everyone is capable of sharp, constructive critique on an amv. However I like the penalty sugestion. 2 week site/oping ability ban and prenament bans for repeate offenders would be a welcome policy.

derobert said he can lock the effects category from being scored. however, the mods cannot edit part of an opinion without deleting the entire opinion. and they will only delete an opinion if the opinion is an obvious personal attack or a mistaken entry. the opinion you have shown fails to show evidence of either condition, thus the mods won't delete the opinion.

because there have been less than 3 opinions left on that video, the only publicly visible effect caused by that digital effects score is on your profile 'average received' score. i would imagine that in order to negate the effect of that digital effects score on your profile score, the site coders would need to build a tool to do that, which would take more than a simple button click.

i do agree it's important for you to voice yourself when the mods/admin fail to do something they should or they promise they would. it is constructive criticism for them, and keeps your case from being from being forgotten.

lol I have gotten opinions nasty ones i would think from people who have no videos who expect EVERYONE to have something like premeire...

I had someone give me a 2 on audio cause they didnt like the song. it was complete bullshit and even when I explained to them that they arent supposed to score that way, they said "well its my opinion the song sucks"

I dropped it, I never notified the admins.... and no matter what, like flint said on the first page (and yes i read all of this thread) its just a number, its just a score.... even if you think its undeserved, its not the end of the world....

I still get the occasional opinion on my older videos that tell me to "try harder next time" or give me ways i can improve.

either way... guh, 4 pages...

they could give me any numbers they want.. I could drop that in a heart beat.. I just don't like getting scores on something I didn't do. Witch is in this case the effects.. maybe they could delete the guys op.. lock the ability to op the effects.. then tell the guy he could re-do his op.. i don't care about any of the scores he gave me.. just getting op scores for effects when I have never submitted any effect videos to the org is just plain stupid.

Adding "it's just" in front of anything can make anything seem like nothing. "it's just a cat", "it's just a t.v.". Well I cant argue with you too much since your attitude is very similar to flints.. but anyway I'm not like "OMG" because of a number... I'm doing that over a review on something that isn't even included in the video. It's like reviewing a non action flick poorly because there wasn't any action in it. :roll: Makes sense? Of course not... you saying it's just a number doesn't make sense.. If I looked in my bank account and I only had 5 dollars in it.. saying it's just a number is stupid. If I made a romance video and someone gave me a 1 on action synch because there was no action in the video.. then... well I think your getting the idea.. or not. :lol:

If they still haven't changed the effects field to 'no,' then I'm glad you brought it up again. They've yet to give a single reason why they refuse to simply click that option so it's a 'no' instead of a 'yes' (which prevents future reviewers from scoring a non-existent category, without changing any of the existing reviews).

Like DWP said, we can't edit an opinion. We can only delete it. And, while the opinion doesn't say much, it's hardly anything that I'd delete because of that.

Yeah, it is. On one of my videos, I did the exact same thing. That box was left checked, and despite their being no effects in the video, I got effect scores for it. Sure, I didn't want those scores for it, but it was my mistake, and I didn't think it was something that I needed to scream out to the world.

Guess what other video messed up? Whisper of the Beast. They left the box unchecked, and have gotten 449 ops with NO EFFECTS SCORE. I don't see them complaining. You're making a big deal out of what is basically nothing. I'd suggest just getting over it, but after seeing this, I doubt that's going to happen :?

I can see you mistakenly forgetting to uncheck the option to review effects a prob.. but if ony few people give it a score it shouldn't matter too much because your over all score should average out because you have other effect videos, right? And for that Whisper of the beast video.. there missing reviews for something they should be getting reviews on. That's different from getting reviews on something that doesn't exist and can give people the wrong Idea about your skill with effects.. I feel I need to make an effects video now since my effects score is biased. That's what that whole I feel forced topic is about.. I guess I could forget it if I actually took the time to make an effects video and submitted it.. then that score wouldn't matter as much.. that's a shock with the whisper of the beast video.. but I bet if the case was the video had no effects and everyone was reviewing the effects.. the case would be different. :?

Also every other mod I've talked to see what they can do. You've always seemed to have this "your shit out of luck" attitude. Anyways.. couldn't this be a good option.
maybe they could delete the guys op.. lock the ability to op the effects.. then tell the guy he could re-do his op..
Couldn't this be an option. Not to you of course. :roll:

It can't. We don't have the ability to change the FX/no-FX bit.

Whether we want to or not is irrelevent.
