When I look around, I do see all the douchebaggery going on with the manga scores. I'm seeing so many accounts trying to boost monster and knock down berserk(and its working because now they are both 9.03). Accounts like these have seemingly popped up pretty often.

I found some of them which are pretty obvious.

(both rate code geass anime a 1, same time last logged in & same register date)

http://myanimelist.net/profile/hahahahuhuhu
http://myanimelist.net/profile/lalalala

(both rate berserk a 1 & username are very much the same)

http://myanimelist.net/profile/theanimeman
http://myanimelist.net/profile/theanimeguy

(both manga lists are similar)

This is why I don't rate popular stuff 1s, people look that shit up and report you.

Ho shi-

This made me curious to look up my own fav anime, which luckily only has 5 votes of 1.
But i'm pretty darn sure these two accounts are the same person from those 5:
http://myanimelist.net/profile/SAG
http://myanimelist.net/profile/goldenbeads

Although it looks like said person actually used there lists, but rather made an account, forgot its password/login, made an account again 5 days later then never returned...


I think I'm gonna do some of my own hunting on some other series I suspect.

This kind of makes me wonder if I've been reported for having popular things with a low score.

Ya shouldn't change your scores though just because there are people who think there is only one allowable opinion for a series.

You have a lot of scored shows, so your account obviously isn't like these dummy accounts, which have 2-3 entries at most. I don't think people who score more than a handful of things have anything to worry about.

Mirage of Blaze a 1? Awww ;)

This one above is actually still active. At any rate, he is one hardcore, devoted hater. It's quite funny, in a way.

Well, manga, in this particular case. Specifically, Berserk.

Maybe the scene at the end brought up some repressed childhood memories for him, and he's been in a state of mental shock ever since. Who knows?

I'd like to learn more about this scene that you speak of.

Here is a thought...... why not talking to said person? I mean there is no harm in trying...... If Someone would give me an account name I'd be glad to talk to the person and find out why he/she is doing this. And what motivates them to do so. Again this is just a thought..........

I just had another thought! (Very very very rare for me to have 2 ideas at the same time.) Has anyone found the REAL acount? I mean someone who gets on these sites has to have a main account! If we can find that it might be easier to track/find out why all this is going on!

These two profiles are completely legitimate and unique. There is no evidence whatsoever that they are the same person. The anime listed are different, the scores are unique, completely different sign-up times, and one guy even went to the trouble of getting a profile picture.

Just because someone gave your precious Code Geass a low score, don't waste people's time with baseless accusations.

Verry true, but there is no harm in trying to communicate with him/her in order to get a better understanding of why this is going on for as long as it has.

Is that no as in:
'There is no harm in trying.'
or,
'You don't know what you are talking about so f*** off.'

I'd say the latter.

The motive behind this is obvious so I don't think "communicating" is going to help much.
Obviously this person is insecure that his/her favorite manga isn't at the top of the list (OH NOES, PEOPLE HAVE A DIFFERENT OPINION RAAAGEEEEE).

Hi, I hope you don't mind me bumping this thread, I was advised by a mod to use it as a place to report these kind of things.

these accounts seem to have been created just to dish out 1s or 10s to things, a few of them are private but you can tell from looking at the history, stats etc that all they've been doing is dropping shows just to score them poorly.



sorry if I'm mistaken on any of these.

How did a single individual managed to create 150 accounts in such a short period of time? I mean.. What sort of objective would the person have? Just to rate Berserk and One Piece with a "1" is...

Anyways, impressive with the findings!!
