Mass Voting at its Finest

[Sakurazukamori]

Take a look at this week's awards, the Review Crew Pick and the Underdog of the Week in particular. They are D4ilytoon #312 and D4ilytoon #313 respectively. Upon closer inspection you will notice that these wards were unfairly rigged. They each "won" despite having relatively low vote scores because they have pages and pages of reviews with a score of 10. A strong majority of the reviews are from accounts created within the past week with names consisting of random-seeming character strings. I will laugh when these submissions get deleted for mass-reviewing like they normally do.

Here's a sample of the reviews for the other movie:

Spamers, that's one word for it, they bring the biggest crap in and save it.

look at pico 2, made during the raid.

Ha. Haha. Nothing gets away from the watchful eye of Newgrounds. Nothing I tells 'ya! Nothing!

great detective work greg it took an ace sleuth to figure that one out

too bad you're the last person on earth who gives a shit about portal awards. even the admins just dont seem to give a shit about em anymore. 2 years ago, the SS account would probably be deleted because wade would go all nazi on our asses. but i think they have far more important shit to worry about. that, and the fact that the organizer of those toons (me) and everyone who made a flash for them have absolutely nothing to do with the mass reviewing.

one thing im curious about grag, now that the ucfd is dead and festering, what do you do all day long? do you watch anime or pump iron?

Yeah, I'm sure this was some random person who wanted to soil your group's good name.

Well I spend most of my time working, going to school, and smoking pot. How about you? What do you do when you're not busy spamming the portal for your own amusement?

Lmfao, you're a loser :o

[Unclemonty23]

Okay? I really just don't care...

[blamkitty]

That's it....I'm going to file a complaint to Tom/Wade with the like to this thread.

[John12346]

Remember all of those people who spammed the BBS that one day? They were ALL alts.

These are them.

Apparently you care enough to read about it and make a post. If you don't care, then save yourself the effort and don't post.

[skatin-andy]

The only thing you can do to stop this is catch it while its still in the portal and stop having people vote 5 because they "think" its going to pass anyways.

Anyone that thinks this thread is dumb or he is dumb for bringing this up, shut up. Just because you think its funny to have shit on Newgrounds doesn't mean everybody does.

Do you know why Wade doesn't delete accounts anymore, because you guys just create more. He then has to delete those. Its not that he has better things to do, its that there is no point if they are still going to come back.

[friendly-bear]

what a bunch of cheaters.

Yeah, I'm sure this was some random person who wanted to soil your group's good name.

who said that? im not sure who it was, but i know it was one person acting alone and it was done without any planning or requests or anything from us, the people who actually made the flash. if the admins delete those flashes, its a damn shame because it means that anybody can go and mass review any flash they want without consulting the author and they'll automatically get the flash deleted.
if tom or wade wants to take the awards away, i have no problem with that. no one cares about them anymore anyways, except you

lmao same :[

[retr0smash]

"mass voting" lmfao

[NewShape]

Over the past few months people like Kidray76 have been the biggest abusers of this. Deleting any negative review they see to fuel theyre retarded power trip. Perhaps you bored watchful creatures could watch their activities in the meantime.
Ye this time, this entry was mass reviewed however it wasnt by the creators, which would be pretty easy to prove.

Not that I or anyone else cares anyway, of a shitty abstract award which can only possibly benefit from 1000 extra page views to that submission.

[lamehorse]

oh for fuck's sakes man it wasn't us, assume what you want

There are no higher B/P ranks left for me to attain so I have no problem giving zeros to spam flashes that are under judgment no matter who submits them.

Anyone that thinks this thread is dumb or he is dumb for bringing this up, shut up.

I made this thread to bring attention to what they did in hopes that it will reach someone who has the power to fix this. Nothing like rousing the rabble to get something changed.

Just because you think its funny to have shit on Newgrounds doesn't mean everybody does.

Agreed.

Do you know why Wade doesn't delete accounts anymore, because you guys just create more. He then has to delete those. Its not that he has better things to do, its that there is no point if they are still going to come back.

He still deletes them. Despite what they might say. An account deletion is still a significant setback. All the movies submitted on the account are deleted and any stats are erased. Then the person has to go through the trouble of creating a new email account and then creating and confirming another Newgrounds account. I'm sure it's much easier for Wade to delete an account than for someone to create a new one.

It's a generalized term.

[Starberry]

the dailytoons organizing group had no input in this whatsoever... it's just a strange act of boredom.
