@Riot, these downvotes

Zyorhist··3 votes·534 views

I've noticed that there have been a lot of people getting troll downvotes for no reason. I've even seen posts recently about people chasing other people around downvoting them. I was wondering if you have a system in place to handle people who give a consistent amount of up/down votes within certain time frames. If not can we get a system, its rather stupid to see people getting downed for no reason.

I don't know about anyone else but once in a while when I go to upvote or downvote someone I will get a little popup image that has a image of summoner 3 and it says sorry that is unavailable right now. Like if I upvote a whole thread or something. I think that is in system so that you can't go off and mass downvote.

Or there are certain threads where OP doesn't like taking criticism, makes a thread about permabans, and wanting sucky champs like Urgot to be nerfed.

You asked why there are threads that gets downvotes for no reason, and I responded with 3. And why do you think I'm only referring to you for?

The moderation on the boards is actually done by people, not a system. I think they believe that as long as it's not on a large scale (like downvoting every board on the front page with 4 smurfs), you can downvote whatever you want.

Or, you know, people might actually disagree with the both of you. That is actually a possibility.

i could see that if there weren't 20 people in a single thread that all go from 1 on friday to 0 on saturday

So.... one person didn't like what some group of people said in a thread, who probably shared an opinion on said thread?

I'm failing to see how this is even close to anything resembling a problem.

its not like that though. i'm not talking about a couple downvotes here and there. i understand not agreeing with someone but, and i'm not the only one noticing it, there are some people that are going around and picking a thread or three and downvoting every single comment in it. not just one here and there, literally every single one.

And as I already told you, I understood that. "i'm not the only one noticing it," Many people notice evidence of streak shooting. But the question this thread is concerned with, is one that you have not answered yet:

"there might be some guy who has downvoted a bunch of posts on this internet forum" So what? That's what the downvote button is there for.
