My new addiction = This spot!!

I came on fanpop to just get photos of coouples and celebs i liked... then i got really into it and started to read articles and socialise.
But one thing that i never realised was that rating was a big deal and that cheating occured.

Sooooo guess what i did?
I rated EVERYTHING i started to look at... and at first i admit i forgot to rate but now when i go somewhere i rate... feels good ya know :)

I dont rate if the person has alot of ratings and i know of them being a -cough-medalwhore-cough- but when i come across peoples art been uploaded and hasn't been rated...

I have a feeling that this question may annoy a lot of fans on this spot, but please let me explain before commenting;

I did read the guidelines of the VRSOF spot, and I think it would be alright if I asked for my Evanescence videos to be rated.

One rule stated that what I have posted must be unrated for at least a month. My Evanescence videos have been posted in the month of May (I think), but definitely a month ago. I have no idea why fanpop will say they were posted 28 days ago, because I know for a fact that they were rated more then 4 weeks ago. But it's alright if you decide to post the...

... and here is why.

There are a number of ways in which Fanpop will be affected by this new rating system, and I can't think of a positive one. Here are the main issues for me.



Cheaters Ahoy!

As the new system does not indicate how many people have rated an image/video/link, this will make it much, much easier for people to use multiple accounts to rate their own contributions. As other people cannot see how many people have rated an image, someone with multiple accounts could rate their images 10 times and none of us would be any the wiser. This is unfair on honest Fanpoppers who do not abuse...
