Now, in this very thread, platus stated
But, after looking through platus's ratings, I'm growing more and more suspicious. Sure, he's not rating every album a 15/100 anymore, the thing that seems to occur now, is he's rating most albums 30-45/100, this is probably a way of making it seem less suspicious.

The worst thing is he said in this very thread he would stop with all this fake voting, but as I see it, he has far from stopped. |
Thank you for reporting and sorry for the delay in replying. He has been spoken to via PM previously about this & I'm going to contact him again to sort this out. The site rules state that people who try to game the site will be banned.

Agree, that's a good idea. Everybody gets a link to the site rules when they register, but some people will always try to game the site regardless. It's a problem across lots of different websites and not just this one. Regards the last point, a site redesign is in progress but has been slowed down a bit due to my volume of work outside of BEA. I'm still hoping to complete this in the next few months (hopefully sooner depending on my workload).

I have just found a user that has rated 21000 albums all at 100/100, what is the difference between this and a 10/100 average? For me I reckon this guy should be banned of spoken to just as much as someone who rates very low.
