You do realize that that's not how you are supposed to rate submissions. If it is a pack, it doesn't get more points because it has more content. You rate each individual thing in the pack, and average it. Besides, I'm not even upset about ratings right now. The number of users who rated it went from 33 to 26, and the rating probably only went down because the ratings deleted were high. Only an admin could have done this, so I would like to know why. And even if 8.6 is too high, 7.8 is too low, especially with 2 5's and some deleted ratings. _________________________
7.8 is too awful? No way. I think you have a too high opinion of yourself. My submissions are rated 5.9 and 6.1. And no one rates the pack by averaging every score. They do it on their appeal, whether they use custom tilesets, or whether they are a pack of levels. You think too much of yourself. Ishile's pack of levels and tilesets should be above yours cause it's a pack of wonderful levels and tilesets and yours is just one level. Plus I saw another user called White toad!! This leaves me curious to know whether you have been making multiple accounts if you're THAT desperate to "win," even if you said no, so it probably makes sense that the admins are deleting the "Fake" ratings.

I know 7.8 isn't that bad, but I will not stand for 5s. Many people love that level and it at least deserves all of its ratings. That account is not mine, and if I were to make more accounts I'd use less obvious names. The point is not that the rating is 7.8, it is that the admins deleted my legit ratings. _________________________
You know, that level didn't use any custom tilesets, nor had very good level design, and it was meant for multiplayer and many people probably don't have other people to play with, so 5 doesn't really sound unfair. Also, only one admin has visited past the 8th of this month, that admin was Megazig. _________________________

Slowly you begin to get unrealistic and self-boastful in my sight. It actually didn't deserve its rating in comparision to all the better content in the depot. You can be glad, it only got 7.8 as total rate. There are surely same good submissions with 6.x or even 5.8 or 5.9 (because of some 0 ratings). I got several 0s (particularly some in the last days), pretty sure (however, the number of rates didn't go down so likely it were not the rates of your "fans" EDIT: Just noticing, at least the last user wasn't banned so the fake users' rate still could be on my submission).
And:

Yeah, though, I hope this concerns at least the vast majority.
There is a difference between having spent much time and work in a submission (i.e. a pack with more than 5 selfmade files (excluding images)) and having not.
But the last quote I put here was very suspicious. It sounds as if you would legitimate people creating multiple accounts and rating the submissions of the copied user (and that even VERY good - what makes the accounts most suspicious). However, I don't want to accuse you for the accounts because I don't know who made them. Nevertheless, these rates can't be legit exactly therefore and the fact, that some people are stealing your name and rating it good (even secretly as a fan) is very strange, don't you think so? I don't know any time before when something like that happened (or at least I didn't notice it).
The only thing I'm wondering about is why the account names were created so naive. _________________________

I don't even go on the Submissions part of this site. I dont' find it up to any sort of standard. if the rating went up/down it's either due to new people rating it or perhaps someone getting banned and deleted causes their votes to get removed too. I don't know about that last part.
Long story short... why did the score go down? don't know. How do you make it go up? make levels everyone loves (or at least ones people who hate you don't see) _________________________
Joietfull: at least to my knowledge, whoever made that account did not even rate my submission. That's all I'm going to say to you until you realize that:
A) I didn't make the account
B) The ratings WERE in fact deleted, I didn't make this up
C) The submission itself is now deleted so accusing me is pointless because even if you still think I made the account, anything it may have done to my submission is now gone
Megazig: I'm not accusing you of deleting the ratings, but do you know of anybody who has visited recently who has the ability to do so?
ALL OF YOU: I didn't even care about my rating until I figured out that somebody rated it 5, and I don't think too highly of myself. I know many users with arguably better submissions than mine have been wronged by unfair ratings, but that doesn't make it right for it to happen to me. It's every man for himself out here people, as I learned the hard way about a year and a half ago. _________________________

Ok then, lets drop it. TBH, White toad! I cant say if i believe you or not about White toad!! but the way your talking it's serious enough to be believable so i believe you. :| _________________________
Yeah, let all old bygones be bygones

The Depot isn't monitored. If it were monitored, then the people doing so could highlight the good levels with 6.x and catch troll posts and ratings like that one on ishle's pack.
Also every level this year should have a "moderator rating" because moderators are serious. :geek:
This rating should be GREAT, MEDIOCRE, and HORRID. It would make things way easier to find good levels off the depot.
You should be able to see who rated what on a level after you rate it.
I have the top rated level! _________________________

I agree with this statement. It could be very helpful to the many users in the depot. :geek: _________________________

I would prefer numbers with a hardcore modding system. _________________________

I don't care much about which rating system to adopt. A 0/10 system would allow for more precision, while a like/dislike system would give a quicker idea, I think.
What is obvious though, is that new content must go through staff approval. _________________________
What's a "hardcore modding system"?? _________________________

Well, uh, more people need to supervise it, and the rating system should be numbers, but it should be in a way that prevents people from rating 0-3 without giving a sentence or two on why. _________________________
