Tuesday and Wednesday 17th and 18th

A silver camera owner down rates another silver camera member, after being warned the same person does this again using a different Woophy id

Another bronze camera member down rates competitors, after being notified the member complains about also being down rated by others.

Thursday 19th

Another silver camera member down rates yet another silver camera member. We have to admit that this person only down rated the 9 ‘lesser’ pictures of the other member. But since the members are so close in the camera hierarchy and the other member is in general highly appreciated for his work we still consider this malicious down rating Also this member received a notification.

From today we keep all the individual ratings in our database and if we come across malicious down rating again we just delete it.

In The Netherlands we have an expression saying.

'Nothing human is strange to me' meaning that one is only human and has human weaknesses like being jealous, envying, being suspicious about other peoples behaviour etc.

In relation to malicious rating on Woophy this is all forgiven and forgotten but please refrain from down rating in the future

The good news is that since we monitor rating behaviour we have a lot more bronze camera members.

The bad news is that still people try to find ways to cheat. Today we found somebody who had several accounts to upgrade his/her own pcitures.

Have fun on the site
