Realistic Voting - Lets Beef

**Miqueas** · #1 09-20-2011, 02:34 AM

Well guys, its the Admin with the name people can't pronounce correctly dropping a post regarding battle & track ratings.

As the scroll down list shows 1 = Awful, 5 = Mediocre, 10 = Amazing.
(anything in between the aforementioned numbers are up to listeners discretion)

First and foremost, I want to encourage REALISTIC votes. There's only so many 10's on this site, if something needs work like delivery, or tone of voice, or even better pronunciation, the 10 that was just given, should be in the 5 to 9 area. 10 in theory means "perfect" and that doesn't exist, this goes for tracks as well. In a honest manner, would you rather be a disillusioned 10 or a ever progressing 8?

Secondly, the lower tier rankings, should not be abused. We expect to see these given out on battles where one participant may not have properly recorded their verse or didn't follow battle instructions if they were given.

Everyone, these ratings affect everything here, whether it be battles (audio & text) or tracks. It's only logical to say that a battle with a missing participant doesn't belong on the top battles list. It's only logical to say that a track where the quality needs improvement can't be a number 1 to a radio ready track.

As a staff member and former top 5 battler on this site, I implore you to keep honesty and reality present when handing out these ratings. They play MAJOR roles in statistics, and will be changed if things aren't measuring up to expectations. Let's take this opportunity to add another building block to our community and continue on.

SIDENOTE: With regards to "hate" voting in comparison to reasonable and opinionated votes, let us, the staff, deal with that.

good lookin! I have seen to many 5 an 6 ratings for clear drops. Anyone jumpin on the mic and holdin their own for a minute deserves better then a 5 in my opinion. The bad drops gotta stand out. As for the 10 rating, theirs been to many so lets make it like it was meant to be, a 10 being a eye opening drop that made u lean forward.....letsbeef!
