Lately some users posted some shocking nazi posts on the Case mod gallery page and it put random 1 votes on the first page. I talk about this fact with TPU staff but they can't get banned these unpleasant users.
My proposal is to abolish the votes on this page. The main fact is that all this stuff is an authentic farce caused by these users.
You should like or dislike any work in my opinion but the fact that you could login with any account or any e-mail and put whatever vote based on nothing is pure cowardice.
 
Users? I saw one and reported it. There was more than one? If so, chances are it was probably the same person with a VPN or something, I would assume... Either way, I think these morons just need to be dealt with. I don't think removing votes from the case mod gallery is the right way to go. If someone really wants to come in and troll the community, they will, and no lack of voting on things is going to stop that. In fact, I think you'd just be handing them a win when they see a function of the community got removed as a result of their actions, while the rest of the community that enjoyed that functionality doesn't get to have it anymore.
 
it was the same person, we've taken measures, but this is just a cat and mouse game, so depending on his determination it can happen again.

Just report, the mod team is aware of the situation and will act swiftly
 
I see that the voting process is changed. Now you have to explain the vote with a comment. Very nice.
Remains the fact that the nazist gave me a 1 before these changes. I would be grateful to TPU if they would remove this rating.
Thanks for your work.
 
I found a few other scores left behind; now removed from other case mod ratings.

It's always been like this when the vote falls too far.

The voting is still the same, if someone's vote is much different than all the others giving stupid high scores, then a reason must be given.

Just to confirm here, a user signed up on four different accounts to post pro-Nazi Hitler imagery, racist, and homophobic content. Frankly, it looked like a kid was doing it. The OP isn't complaining about some random score - they're referring to things that are no longer visible because the mods had to put out a tonne of fires.
 
Iron Man still has 1 unrealistic vote, so there's work to be done. It's not the best thing since sliced bread, but it's too maligned

Fixed thanks
 
I removed the votes I found to be by the person in question.
We are not omni present, nor are we here 24/7.
There is a report system to report these people/problems... feel free to let us know if we need to address some matter.

From the moment I understood the weakness of my flesh, it disgusted me. I craved the strength and certainty of steel. I aspired to the purity of the blessed machine. Your kind cling to your flesh as if it will not decay and fail you. One day the crude biomass you call a temple will wither and you will beg my kind to save you. But I am already saved. For the Machine is Immortal. All hail the Omnissiah.
 
There's votes? I didn't even know.

I just thought it was something to get ideas from/drool over.
 
Fuck Nazis, and fuck anyone who thinks posting Nazi bullshit is cool or funny or edgy or whatever.
