People can rate however they want; I don't give a crap

You have a low mean score b/c you use a different rating scale, so IDK why you got shit over such a trivial thing. This is why people need to learn some math lol

Also I have a mean score of 6.71. I wonder if that is considered low.

A low score (<4 with less than 300-is shows) can mean 3 things:

1- The user doesn't know how to score.
2- Whoever has that score keeps watching bad shows for some reason.
3-They're just stupid.

You don't even have 200 and are under 2. What is wrong with you?

In your case, having a low mean score in itself isn't the issue; it's the fact that you scored every single title (nearly 500) 5 or below.

Take a good, hard look at what these numbers are intended to mean.

People who judge people based off of mean scores are a little weird, but I do have to question your rating system. Like I understand OVAs getting rated 1 since they're mostly incomplete and lack context but there's no way all of those full length series you gave 1s to are actually 1s. I haven't some of the stuff on your list though so I guess you could just have poor decisions in terms of anime you wanna watch. I'll fight you in regards to the DevilMan Crybaby rating though. I don't think it's remotely as good as your other 2s and even some 1s.

Honestly, what MAL needs is a rating scaler so people who rate anime on a 1-5 scale like yourself get their scores averaged out based on other people's scales and vice versa. I'm not a web designer but I feel like setting a mathematical algorithm for something like that isn't too difficult for MAL since it deals with constantly changing numbers on a minute by minute basis. If something like that gets made there would be less complaints about low mean scores like yours. Your mean score woul basically become a 3.2 which I find to be reasonable based on what's on your list.

To be honest, I find it weird that people who watch so much anime would have such a low score, especially one as low as yours, because I always think, "Do you even like anime? You must, since you've watched so much, but your mean score says otherwise." However, it's still leagues better than dropping half of everything you watch after one episode.

EDIT: I just looked at your list, and you just don't seem to understand the scoring system. It's out of 10 freaking rate your stuff like it is aaaahhh

Stop watching things you know you'll dislike. I watched Konosuba fully knowing i would give it a low score. Was i stupid? Yeah.
Will i ever again watch an anime that i know from the get go i will completely dislike and/or hate? No, i care about my time.
I wouldnt bash on people with a low mean score but i would totally think on my inside (on my head) that they are really stupid. How after watching over a 100 shows can you still not have an idea of what the hell do you like so you can stop watching stuff you will hate? (not pointing that question at anyone im just trying to make a point and this is totally what i would think if i saw someone with a low mean score and a shit ton of shows watched).
In the end i would look down on people matching that description but i would never harass or try to annoy someone for it. That's dumb, a muda muda waste of time.
edit: Forget it i would totally harass you as well. You dont understand how the score system work, what a dummy.

of course not

I mean there are some individuals that I can't help to think are nothing but attention whores with it (lel mean score 2. something, 1 to everything but they favourites, and these get 9 because '10 doesn't exist' lmao), but generally low mean score doesn't mean much other than they rate bit differently and maybe have more specific tastes.
And really, finding anime bad doesn't equal to suffering and having such a bad time watching. IDK why people seem to think it's such a big deal to finish bad anime.

Yes, it's wrong. Especially if you rate any my favorites with a low score.

Serious answer:
No. It's not wrong.
Most of the time, people just come to their selfish conclusion based on what they know; even when they know nothing about the person they judge.
There's no such things as if you have a certain mean score means you must not enjoy or enjoy most of what you watch.

I bet some germans when they first visited the site started rating shows from 1 (highest) to 6 (lowest). That's why some people have a low mal mean score. And yes, it's sad and weird to critisize a guy for having low mean score.

In a broad sense people with exceptionally low mean scores often are cases of people trying to let's say "down vote" a bunch of series. In which case hypothetically people will try to boost shows they like while in cases of people trying to lower their mean score it's often questionable whether they watched or even finished said series. So they invite more ire from their low scores especially when it includes relatively popular or highly rated series.

In your case having a different scale makes some sense but your mean score with your scale would tell me you absolutely hate or dislike roughly 86% of everything you've watched and completed. Granted I would also have to take into account how your completed count is kind of boosted with a ton of short ovas/movies/etc. which you've almost universally scored low which drastically shifts the mean score.

It only makes me wonder how stupid or masochistic they are. If you keep watching stuff you consider shite then there's some kind of problem with you, really. Still, so long as you enjoy yourself, good on ya.

It's wrong if you mean score below 3 with >100 completed series

But if you using 1-5 scales. It's alright because in this site they're using 10 scales. Thats why your mean score looks really low.

Then If you rating system using 10 scales. What do you want?? Overanalysis?? Elitlist?? Attention?? C'mon man......

No why are you concerned with how other people rate the anime they watched? Why do you care if some guy on an anime forum respects you or not lol?

That said if you score it low you should probably drop it, unlike what you've done, scoring something a 2 then watching 50 episodes of it is pretty fucking stupid, but to each their own.

e:oh you use a 5 point scoring system? Idk why you'd wanna do that, it's kinda silly and there's no reason you can't just adjust it to the 10 scale, but not so bad in that case I suppose

It's literally the standard /10 system that everybody uses. While MAL could do what Kitsu does and allow multiple rating options, I think everyone one is capable of coming up with a score /10, or at least one /5 and doubling it.

High or low mean score do whatever you want with it, I don't care.

I've have my low mean score ever since I join this site and I haven't ones been callout, neither bother by the kind of reputation I get from it. However I do get annoying every time I have to heard some clown spouting nonsense, on how they have zero respect for someone with a lower numerical number than they.

Interesting, I did not know exactly how that system worked and now I understand it a little better, and with that I can say that if someone has a fairly low Mean Score ... then something bad happens there, however I did not know that people were criticized or attacked just for that, everyone takes the poison they want, or maybe they just qualify in a strange way. In IMDb you can also find users with rare qualifications, like people who only put 1 or 10 in the movies they watch, literally.

When it comes to people who've seen thousands of shows and still have a low mean score. I'd think after watching so much anime they'd be able to tell what they don't like by now and just drop it. But then i guess they must have a lot of free time to just watch everything regardless of whether they like it or not. People can do what they want though, so a low mean score doesn't matter.

i think your decision to only use half the scale is kind of a statement
why use 1-5 when its clearly 1-10
you can easily change rating to 2, 4, 6, 8, 10 if full range too hard for you... but you choose to be different

Well, OP:

1. You have a different rating system than the rest in a site that does not encourage it, and that is counterintuitive. But you cover this in the profile page so whatever. Your choice.
2. In addition you have more than half of your list voted the lowest number in your already severely limited scale. One has to question the ability of your scale to discern stuff, or your tolerance to this medium for that matter.

No one should give a shit about your rating scale but it certainly looks like you are pushing for an answer here.
