Low scores in case gallery

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.

Velocity's Avatar is of the Boondock Saints. Damn good movie if you haven't seen it.
 
So seriously, we should get a case mod and hardware/system gallery.
 
I voted bad on it because I didn't know if it played Doom.
Can it play Doom?
 
Why don't we just make it a requirement to post when voting? If you are going to give a case a vote that isnt 10 why not tell the person what you think of their case? if you are going to give them 10 just say why. it bugs the shit out of me when i read peoples posts with 8's 9's and the votes without posts are the low ones, with no explanation.

doesnt that solve any issues and make everyone accountable?
 
I say switch to a thumbs up or thumbs down system with comments. Have the forum parameters post the rating next the rater's name. The dominant rating is displayed where the average score would be. That would be a lot more simple, and the rating would not be allowed without submission of a post in that thread. I dunno if they could do it here, but it sounded like a good idea to me.

I prefer a number system personally, 1-5 thumb down 6-10 thumb up ya know? I know w1zz could do it, i mean after all we are talking about the w1zz. guess its up to him.

bugs me more to see people do this:

I voted 5/10 because:

aaa
 
report post, move on.
 
Haha, this reminds me of this bloke I knew that would go around to those 'am I hot or not' style webpages, and vote "1" on all the girls.

I wonder if trolls ever sit back and think, 'man I need a hobby...'

Well, Can he play Doom?
 
Vince you got a system in florida! Yea I love my new sig cept for you cant really read the info all that much. I think the best suggestion here is to make it a mandatory post if you vote, that would help out a bunch.
 
God damnit! I ran Doom on a Pentium 64mhz CPU, 94mb RAM, and a 2gb hdd. Of course he can play Doom.


Yeah, but can he play Doom?

what is going on with this doom thing?
 
Hey everyone. This ancient thread just appeared in your User CP:D. Did you notice that it says Case mod gallery on both the home page and drop down and what not? as It was the argument that it didn't actually say Case mod gallery.
 
and in the forums it says "Case Gallery". Very contradicting isn't it?
 
Well it still does not get rid of the argument that people should not rate on hardware. It says case, case mod w/e its about rating on the case not the hardware. I do think It should be changed to Case Mod gallery, as its in the drop down and home page, just a suggestion though.
