Ratings and opinions in PhotoNet Site Help Posted August 25, 2005 Hi Brian, I join this community a bit more then two weeks ago. First week I posted few photographs and send some for critique. The critique and ratings were reasonable for dose photos. Second week was completely different. The photos I posted instantly got rated for 2/2 with no comment on it. I thought maybe they really were bad, but later normal people rate them accordingly. This week I posted another photo, got three ratings of 6/6 with comment and just after that one 2/2, one 2/3 with no comments. At this moment this rating system looks to me like is fixed and someone controls who gets what. I came to that conclusion after I noticed some facts .First, soonest my last picture went on the critique list it had 140 views- were this number came from I have no idea, but it looks fishy to me. Second, the photo I posted for critique last is not even showing on ?Photos from Last 24 Hours Ranked by Rate Recent Avg? but the average on it is over 5 on both A and O. If the photo is not displayed, how other viewers can fairly rate or comment it. I though this site was design for people to share their opinions and knowledge but for some reason I don?t feel that anymore.
