So you're whining about getting ratings you don't like and taking out your vendetta on the boards, rather than having an actual point, or anything of value to say.

Okay. Good to know.

lmao....like my reason for this thread was any worse then the "Flashy vids are overrated" thread, or the "Someone copied my idea" thread.

and until i see in the forum description about how this is the General AMV forum to talk about everything other then your opinion on something.....i will keep posting my opinions on such matters.

[damn i need an edit button]

Plus, if you would have read all of my posts, you would see that i did have a valid point, and that this pro vs con debate about star ratings was pretty good. Granted..it seems the majority seems not to care...but since i am an o.0 here i thought the ratings were of more import then if your type of vid would show up on someones Suggestion Querry report.

But then again, i would like my vids to show up on everyones SQ report...but thats wishfull thinking.

actualy....iwhat made me upset and START this whole thread...was the fact that my crappies vid, Misery, has over a 3.1 average...its short, and not even that well made....has no point to it, just has a bunch of clips...totaly random, not even faded, just linked together, so it took me like....20 mins to make...

Join the club. My second vid ever made, and by far not what I think is my best, is doing over a 3.8 average, and is one of my highest rated vids. My fourth vid, the one that only took me an hour to do because I literally threw stuff in there in a fun order, is also doing really well. However, some of my deeper, more significant and better edited ones are averaging less. O_o Um...ok...
It just goes to show that sometimes your own opinion will definitely differ from others.

Lol, I'm pretty sure all of us can relate to this. I doubt there's a single person who hasn't had to resist pointing out how *insert negative adjective here* people can get (although, some show less restraint than others).

Isn't it obvious? YYH vids get higher star scores by default, while DBZ gets automatically lowered scores. That is perfectly accurate and to be expected from this site.

And really, if it ain't broken, why fix it?
