Serial non-useful voter on my back … again

* voter , I mean of course (not boter) 😀

Hi Coventry- Thank you for reporting this issue. I've forwarded this information to the appropriate team for further investigation (Ref Ticket #V1744716630). We'll reply once we receive further information. Cheers!

Hi Maya (or colleague), Regarding V#1809770949 After 1 month of not submitting any user-comments, I submitted 18 comments that I saved up at once. Less than 2 hours later, ALL of these are already marked as non-useful. That is not normal, is it? Is this not abuse? Can you please track which user hates me so much and undo his/her bullying? Please… This is my URL: https://www.imdb.com/user/ur2020269/reviews PS: I’m reposting this from a closed off conversation (https://community-imdb.sprinklr.com/conversations/data-issues-policy-discussions/serial-nonuseful-voter-on-my-back-again/680017646bafae19d4411129) because it’s marked as “solved” but it honestly isn’t. I would also like to plea for an alternative system! Can IMDb not get rid of the “thumbs down” possibility? Why not just offer the option for people to “like” via a thumbs up? It’s practically never – in my experience – that someone clicks “not useful” because of the content, they only dislike reviews because they don’t agree with the rating or because they hold a personal grudge against the author. Restricting to a thumbs up will allow people to show appreciation, but at least it is not possible to publicly downgrade authors’ work and push it back in the full list of user-comments. Can’t speak for other reviewers, but I spent 2-3 hours writing a comment. If others don’t like it or disagree, that is fine, but this shouldn’t be a reason to degrade it with one simple one-second click. I hope the community is open for this alternative, or any other change in measuring method, because I’m a contributor/reviewer since 2003 and currently deeply discouraged to continue with the sole hobby I have.

Hi, ticket #V1809770948 is NOT resolved. Whenever I submit a comment, or several at once, they are systematically downgraded as non-useful within 24h. This goes on for months now, please don’t tell me this troll-behavior of one person again another is acceptable to you here on this website?

Instead of merging, why don’t you solve it? Or at least give me an answer?

Well, it has happened again. For over a month, I didn't post any user comments because I was being chased by a troll who downgrades all my writing work as "not helpful" without reading them. But because this is my greatest passion, I kept writing and posted all the reviews at once. A few days later, everything was again assessed negatively. That makes a total of more than 175 reviews that are unjustly spat on by one and the same troll. This has happened in the past, but this troll is persistent. I also notice that several other loyal and prolific reviewers besides me suffer from this. Why do you allow this? Mrs. @Michelle or Mr. @Col_Needham? When I try to report this, I once got the answer that "no policy violations or observations of abuse were detected". After that, all my questions were ignored and merged under an old post that was already marked as "accepted solution". Why do you allow the work of loyal users, who have been contributing to IMDb for decades, to be belittled? Why do you allow a frustrated troll to smear the work of passionate users with one simple click on a thumbs down? Here on the contributors forum it is not possible to click a thumbs down. You can only give the thumbs up. Why don't you apply the same for the user comments? I hope for an answer (and a correction or solution) but my faith is gradually disappearing. Please adjust this system. Only keeps the thumbs up for user-comments, trivia aspects, etc. This only leads to the abuse of trolls who do nothing themselves but take pleasure in insulting the work of others. Please help!

I'm going to try and ask this one last time, very politely... Dear administrators, Can you please help me get rid of the "stalker" who systematically votes ALL my user reviews as non-useful within 24h after they appear? This has been going on since March of this year, and it drives me crazy. It forces me to rate my own reviews as useful myself, otherwise they all stand there with "0 out of 1 found this useful". How sad and pathetic is that? Please help. There must be something you can do? I'm a loyal user/contributor since 2002 and submitted nearly 6000 reviews. It takes time and devotion to write a reviewer, but any frustrated person can anonymously insult the work of others. Also, please reply to me, even if you can not or do not want to action. Please don't just add this post to a series of other non-actioned posts.
