also, why does it matter so much that they left a review for themselves? really though, what have they done to piss you off so much and irritate you becuase they left a review for their own vid.

they do what they do. you should do what you do. i dont' really understand how this would hurt you in any way or why you should be upset about a total stranger playing narcisis and reviewing their own vid. it affects/effects you in now way shape or form.

so..chill already. leave the vid a review if you must..but complaining about how a creator makes a review for himself really isn't getting you or anyone else anywhere.
:shrugs: well, its your deal...
Nods. Yeah, I agree that I probably sound like I'm going on about a pretty minor issue, however here is the main reason I feel a bit justified in being generally irritated (though it's more a shake my head in frusteration sort of thing than a bang my fists against the table and wail at God sort of thing):
Yesterday a fellow by the name of Ryo.it managaged get his videos into the TOP of the 10% list by having himself and his buddies (at least I figure they are his buddies as they seemingly belong to the same studio) give his videos 10s straight across the board. When I saw his vids appear in the top 10% list I was intrigued enough as the fellow is Italian, and I thought, hmm, an Italian editor might have a different take on things, and might make a pretty neat video. I hadn't checked to see who had reviewed these videos before starting to download, and my connection was being kinda fudgy, so my computer was tied up with the downloading for some time, and when I finally watch them what are they?
HIS FREAKIN' VACATION VIDEOS set to music,
I kid you not, his vacation videos. So I'm essentially, like WTF, who the heck reviewed these things? I go back click the little "learn more" link at the bottom of each of the video page and find out that he and his buddies had written the initial 3 reviews that got him into the list which precipitated me tieing up my computer downloading his videos while I could have been downloading porn in bulk or something else similarly worthwhile.
Prior to this I didn't even know that creators could post reviews for their own works...
Needless to say, I, and (I just learned) one other gentlemen who seemingly felt the same way I did about Ryo.It's video's, were nice and gave him our honest opinions about his videos, which not surprisingly knocked them off the 10% list. I know it is essentially "download at your own risk" here at times, and there have been times where I have genuinely not liked vids that numerous other people have reviewed and liked, and I've never been bothered by the random factor that can be associated with personal tastes. However, this incident just really irked me as it was such a blatent attempt to manipulate the system and waste my time.
