Creating sockpuppets to rate your own stuff

This isn't allowed. Your ratings have been removed. See Rating Articles for rules on rating articles. --Sulacu (talk) 11:36, 2 December 2016 (UTC)

No clue what i'm doing but this isn't a sock puppet -_- my friend sent me a link and i rated it how i saw it but i usually do high power campains so my Ideals are vastly Different -Lucii

I Rated it because my friend Yes, but if i didn't like it i would have rated it badly, being friends had nothing to do with it. So you're just making assumptions that because he's my "friend" i'd give him a good rating but i wouldn't, for fur i enjoy the fact he moved all the one piece feats over making it really cool and usable in future campaigns i host or am in, and the others were all things i'd use in multiple characters by cross combining things, then slip i am a Gm for a game he is in and rated it how i saw it, i liked the flaw and it made sense to me but other people will obviously assume if someone has a high rating it's either a fake account or he told his friend to, but i did it because i actually enjoy the content which is the entire purpose of this site isn't it, if i actually enjoy something or if they ask my opinion i will rate it how i feel otherwise i wouldn't bother So please don't make Drastic assumption the second you see something better than 2 ---Lucii

There are plenty of 'Community Favourite' articles out there that have more than four positive ratings on them, but here's the gist. Most of the people that rate on this site are also content creators. That does not mean you have to make content in order to rate, but for a rating to have validity and value it needs to have credibility. One important part of that is an understanding of the framework of the roleplaying system that the site provides as well as its intended levels of balance. For example, I love One Piece, but that doesn't mean I would instantly like or favor an article based on One Piece that is far too weak or strong, that doesn't conform to the ruleset of 3.5th edition D&D, and that doesn't provide any sort of reference or citation of obscure core rules or preferential rules (read, Homebrew) that you guys may or may not have made up by yourselves without informing us. That is why it is important to rate according to guidelines, and that is why I considered your mass-ratings of your friend's work as anomalous. --Sulacu (talk) 12:43, 2 December 2016 (UTC)

Alrighty Then, I was going to start rating other things based on how i saw it but now i see it's a waste of time since i'll just be removed, Gotta Love How power corrupts <3 --Lucii

Rating issues

'While a user may maintain multiple accounts if they so choose, no user may use an alternate account for any abusive purposes, including but not limited to: obscuring their identity for the purpose of self-rating; rating a single article multiple times; or concealing dishonest behavior by divorcing it from your public persona (e.g., an agreement to rate a friend's article favorably regardless of merit)'.

There is nothing wrong with rating articles that you like, but if you make an account for the express purpose of blanket-rating your friends' work up then that just serves to call into question your judgment and the integrity of your ratings. In such a case we reserve the right to remove such ratings. --Sulacu (talk) 12:00, 2 December 2016 (UTC)
