Low scores in case gallery

tkpenalty said:
Nice sig but I cant read the writing :(.

Well people keep giving me crappy votes for a perfectly good antec 900, may you PLEASE post comments with the votes.

http://www.techpowerup.com/gallery/details.php?id=907

I mean wtf. When several other antec 900 users have averages of 7~9 even though its entirely messy in the interior I feel sorta offended. Proves how ignorant some TPU users are.

Now anyway Just name it a PC Gallery. Now for some raving:

THIS ANTEC 900 IS NEATER THAN WHAT GUYS DO, DREMEL FREE ZOMFGZOMFG (<Built up stress from building the antec 900)

<and I got like a 4 for that???? So yeah are these votes ego related?

people should seriously stop bitching about getting 1s on their case, its just a bloody case gallery! If the 1 is so unexceptable then why is it even there???

Same could be said about the 10. And then if we removed "1" and "10" then people wuld be like "whats the point of having 2" and the cycle continues.

W1z reccomends that the best way is to let a mod know if people give negative results for no reason, and to pay more attention to the feedback you recieve on your case rather than the actual votes it gets. It appears there is no way to prevent malicious voting without undermining the efficiency/ease of use of the case gallery itself.
 
How about the "Tech Power Up! Computer Gallery"?

Then just remove the scores all together or go with like / dislike - and WHY!

:toast:
 
I think some people are jeolous and vote 1, some are just being pointless and have nothing better to do but see if they can offend someone by doing so. I'm sure D44ve knows whom I'm spreaking of, and eventually those lurkers will either get board or the Mods will decide they've done something wrong and be-rid of them. But either way it's a voting system, and people are going to vote what they fell in the current situation. If they feel like kissing ass, odds are there's a 10, if they really like your work and think it's amazing, guess what you may just get a 10 from that also! But remember those of you who have posted in that gallery, because it's a diamond in your eyes doesn't mean it is in ours. Everyone has different tastes, just like cars, houses, food, etc, you may love seafood, I may hate it. It's diversity, it will always happen as long as there is a ratings system. We'll get the losers who lurk for nothing better to do, we'll get those who may dislike you or your setup that gives you a low score, you may have asskissers or good friends vote you high because they like you and not judge by the build necessarily. There's a lot of gray area.

I do agree that posting a comment after voting is the way to go, granted it's caused a couple of pointless arguments over time, that's just people being human. Everyone can't get along, there will be those who just won't get along...oh well. All we can do is move on, if you notice a lurker voting ones and leaving crappy comments that have no constructive critisism or decent reasoning, then report them. Maybe when you vote and post a comment it should post what you voted, though most do post what they gave, if the forum did that anyways, then that may help narrow down those who are lurking for no better purpose but to cause disgruntlement. Just a thought.

ye and while we're at it, there should also be a linky to each persons case mod in his system specs rollout or something

Better still, if someone votes either a 1 or a 10 an explanation must be accompanied, otherwise it shouldn't allow you to vote those extreme scores.
 
dear god... thread explosion!

The problem arises because on the main page it's called the "Case Mod Gallery", while the forum thread is called "Case Gallery". We just need to change the name on the main page.

I'm the moderator for the case gallery, so if anyone has any problems feel free to PM me or use the report post button. I try to read as much as possible, but it's not always easy to read every post in that forum. I promise I don't bite..... usually.
 
Something to show off, just not in a case gallery if its in a beige case with nothin special

In that case why dont we have two galleries.
One for users who have put lots of mods on.
One for hardware orientated voting.
 
i think some cases are voted 1 because they truley suck for one reason or another, ill give a 1 out if the cable management sucks ass and there was no attempt to hide it, the cuts on the case suck ass and are uneven, or the painting is a lame and there are sun spots... tbh id even give a 1 out on a decent case that people had overrated because ya it was a new antec 900 but no mod at all was done to it, if its stock its low in my book so fuck me? maybe but o well. keep putting stock cases in and ill keep posting 1s (zomg im evil)

tkpenalty- your case is completely stock, the cable management is so so, but nothing has been done on your part to better the look of the case, all the parts came shiny as shit, so imo i would think it deserves a low score...

Exactly my point. If its an office computer no one wants to see it, but if theres something to look at, something you yourself have done, odds are others wouldn't mind looking at it. If it is something weird and totally custom you should not only post it but give a step by step on how to do it.

No one is going to mod something, make it worse, and post it. Like my old vga cooler for example, I read on another site how to make a diy vga cooler out of a spare 80mm fan and a pci bracket. It didn't look the best but it worked and others wanted to know how it was made and what kind of gains it provided. I know at least 3 people took my idea and changed it, modified it, and made it work for them. It also looked better after being tweaked.

Hell if the computer in question is a beige $5 case, yet the high end parts inside idle 5c over ambient I want to know what they did and how to replicate that sort of performance myself. That is something unique and interesting, to me at least. If it isn't a factory style computer it belongs in the case gallery. I'm still going to hand out my share of low votes to those whom I feel deserve it, but I may just learn something from a beige box and wires everywhere.

TK do not mock the boondock saints.
