Reputation issue and user conduct.
-
There has been several instances I have noticed lately of people actively abusing the reputation system to their advantage. My reputation and others such as @Usakichan have experienced massive drops in rep for no apparent reason. Some comments on certain posts have gotten more than 20 downvotes and climbing while those accounts can also upvote the ones they see fit to benefit the user..
These people feel they need to make alternate accounts to boost their rep, and lower others'. Some of whom are obvious since several can be seen upvoting posts, and with basic user lookup can be seen to have only been made minutes prior to upvoting with no prior posts. There have been tens of these accounts I have found so far (admittedly it has come to my attention that some were made to benefit me as well).
I make this post as a warning to mods, admins, and owner(s) that this is happening, and to ask for them to come up with a solution. If needed, I have a list of names of main accounts, and secondary accounts I have found to be doing this activity, if you need them, I can PM you.
Less than a week ago I had over 50 rep, now I have less than -20 and is dropping by the day. I can no longer report accounts, downvote and soon I will be forced to have my account removed and I have no doubt this post will also get downvoted as well.
Please fix this
I care about this site and what it offers people. I guide people to keep posts on topic and non-invasive, and a select few have decided to abuse power to remove my account from the platform. Disheartening behaviour. -
maybe you are just disliked by the community

@arse123 For? Certainly there is a reason for people to dislike someone so much that they actively try to push them off the platform for being helpful.

@PrIsMaTiSm Most people in communities dislike being modded when that person is not a mod. your intentions may of been good/helpful in your eyes but you kept having too many arguments.
People, esspecially a community who uses "stolen" assets dont like being told what to do.
No one asked you to do this self appointed "volunteering" they wont listen to what you have to say because you're a nobody on a site of other nobody's
most users here got the helper role because the post a lot of assets.
try and get that first then try again with all this -

try and get that first then try again with all this@Floralias I shouldnt have to try again with all of this. Also... Not that it matters. But....
Its also important to note that advising people to cut down on spam should not be a controversial issue. Especially since I was never rude about advising them.

@PrIsMaTiSm It was a good sign you were offered the role in June but now we are here. Look, you don't have to listen to me at the end of the day but my advice for now is just keep your head down maybe start collecting the free assets here, trade a bit and help people find the assets.
That's how you can help around here and start to get your rep back
I know you want to help the community, but constantly telling people to stop bumping wont work if you're not a mod, even if you were never rude about it because people dont like being told what to do if you dont have the reputation of being useful to back it up.
It's just what it is. -

i think we should reward those on other spectrum of this who post 50 lf posts without ever contributing a single asset.

It's just what it is.@Floralias Nothing changed between then and now besides people not realizing that I am helping and deciding to get angry about it. And I mostly agree with everything else you say. The issue here is users creating alternate accounts and artificially inflating and deflating whomever they choose, that's the issue that needs addressed. Many are being adversely affected for people holding grudges.

@arse123 Aren't you helpful. I would like to mention that you are included in my suspicions. Try to be helpful, or maybe stop commenting here. I am looking for assistance, not critique.

@arse123 I care because at -100 rep, the account is automatically deleted, and any negative rep removes possibility for reporting, downvoting, and other things.
Yeah, for reference, everyone that just upvoted your comment ( @Sentience , @Caneta_Azul, @peropero) are some of the accounts I am referring to. And this will not be a vent post for people like you. This is posted in the help section, so why don't we keep it like that?

enough of this nonsense now; following users have been removed due to them being fake/throwaway accounts and actively downvoting people:
https://forum.ripper.store/user/blue-buff
https://forum.ripper.store/user/mother-of-pearl
https://forum.ripper.store/user/pon3
https://forum.ripper.store/user/pepega
https://forum.ripper.store/user/peropero
https://forum.ripper.store/user/caneta_azulyou guys don't have to like each other, take the hate somewhere else, seriously.

@PrIsMaTiSm I am not pleased that you leaked our DMs from a few months ago to use as ammunition in an argument. I had considered assigning the helper role to a few individuals, but I ultimately decided against choosing you. I would prefer someone in the helper role who avoids drama and is well-liked by all. If you happen to notice anyone potentially abusing the reputation system, please DM me the details. Up until now, I haven't received any messages regarding such issues. The reputation system was meant to be a fun addition for the community, but if it ends up causing more harm than good, I am open to removing it just as easily. (However, at this point, I don't intend to remove it).
DM me for any issues

@SpookyVersace Understood, I realize that the DM might have been personal, but since it seemed to relate and I didn't necessarily see anything wrong with it, I did it since the topic was brought up.
I'd be more than willing to remove it.
I'd also like to ensure that @Usakichan s issue was explored further too. They were having an issue very similar to mine, and I do want this to be a fair community.

@PrIsMaTiSm as @Floralias said, i agree. you should be helpful by sharing or finding stuff on this site as member. since you are not mod, you should not annoy people by some ´´rule´´ you made up. of course it can be annyoing, but i saw you having an issue with people bumping per day. if it would be such a problem, mods would already do something with it, since it is their job. they may also do it one day.
and yet @Usakichan was attacked by nonsense, but you were just ´´annyoing´´ people even if it was meant to be nice.
about fake acc, i agree, that should be stopped, but yet, how do we know u did not do any as well, since a lot of people got downvoted by having a ´´fight´´ with you. do not take is badly, but just help people and let them be, maybe we all gonna forget about this.

@arse123 @Sentience Wow, I cannot believe this is happening even here. Bandwagoning in center-stage. I have a feeling there is going to be some repercussions. I guess we will see.
I told you it wasn't me trying to start it. So please no more pointing fingers at me. Are we cool now?

@shadowangelking dunno.... that frog face is pretty sus
My drops are only up for 5 days.
Don't ask me to reupload something if I look at your profile and you contributed nothing to the site. Nothing includes items that you got from someone else are are just using to leech more paid items.
