Okay this is a call to the admins now, I wanna know why my rating is so low?

I know the whole karma/posts thing, but I don't get how I don't post for 2 days and my rating is so low.

If you tell me what the hell you are talking about then I might be able to explain, I never posted on abbay's thread.

I send my condelences by all means but that still doesn't explain why my rating is so low?

Besides which I am not a ratebot by any means.

I haven't been on alla since friday afternoon and even then I didn't post anything.

So whats been happening?

I suspect that Kaolin has traced your IP to be that of Dracoid

i am sure that one of two things is the case.

1. You are Dracoid

2. You are one of many sharing a node in the midlands of England and Kao has gon off half cocked.

Yes Kao in our fine country it is possible for more than one person to share an IP address, i know this because i had to request admission to another site that i use because 7 other people where at the same IP address with the site.

I know 2 of them and they had warned me it might happen.

Coincedently both are with AoL. maybe that where it come from /shrug.

You have been extensivly used to rate Dracoid up.
I am suspecting that point No 1 is probably the true reason

1 sockpuppet spotted.

I know TheDave and Dracoid have said they are in the same class in school. Whether it's true or not, I can't say. I guess Nobby could verify.

You're all in the same class or school??

That would explain the massive aggroing on me after my recent posts, lol.

Cheers :)

Btw, are Dracoid the Wise and Dracoid the Great (or w/e his name is) the same person?

edit: added question.

Send me a PM explaining the situation. If you are truly not Dracoid, I'll restore your rating.

Yes. Dracoid can change his premium title to whatever he wants. I was, at one time, TwiztidSamurai the Malevolent, TwiztidSamurai the Tulip, Baron von Twizzle, and many others.

It all has to do with premium service, but they are the same person.

Let's see which is more likely.

A. Dracoid annoys enough people to earn myriad rate downs. Being a teenager, and thus vulnerable to the common teen malaise of low self esteem (despite his affected bravado) he creates a sockpuppet with which to rate himself into what he believes to be a more respectable status.

B. Dracoid and TheDave attend the same school and:
1) TheDave really really likes Dracoid and is attempting to curry favor by seeking out and rating up every Dracoid post he can find.
2) Dracoid is passing his lunch money to TheDave to perform aforementioned rate-up service.
3) Dracoid has some dirt on TheDave and has threatened to go public unless TheDave makes with the rate ups.

Any of these scenarios seems equally likely to me.

That was not the only rate bot found, and Dracoid and TheDave's IP's matched up until the previous two posts on this page.

Just posting to clarify the situation to all those on the forum.

I am not a rate bot. Me and Drac are friends and we got to the same school, the reason why the IP adresses matched because I sometimes use Drac's computer to post.

I did start on the forum just to bump up Drac's ratings but I liked it and started posting on my own.(Haven't rated Drac in a while)

Me and Kao have come to an understanding so hopefully my rating will be restored soon.

Ahh, a toady (not that this is a believable story). One step below a rate bot.

Dracoid has earned his rate downs. Let him bear his crappy status with pride.

In case you wonder, Drac, as a rule, I don't rate your posts.
