He probably gave out 75. Check the rest of his ratings.

I checked out Spud's ratings that he gave. I had to scroll down for a few seconds to get past the "PLUR" ratings.

He isn't giving his opinion, he is trolling and sabotaging the ratings feature. But that's just MY opinion.

One opinion doesn't sabotage rating. Plus, if you need reminding.....THIS IS SOMEONE YOU'VE NEVER MET BEFORE. Why do you even CARE what he has to say about you?

he clearly stated his opinion before even starting his rating spree.
he believes that a large number of people here deserve 1 shroom ratings.

To everyone whining:

It is just a rating which counts for absolutely nothing.
You should all give me a 1-rating, then I can cry and make my own thread in here.
Good times!

PLUR happens when theres lots of drugs at a rave.
But it just means peace, love unity, respect and is/was the mantra of the rave scene from what I hear.

PLUR happens every day, anywhere, anytime.

drugs ARE required for cuddle puddles, though.

I wouldnt consider the opinions against spud "whining" I think they are simply pointing out that rating a ton of people with one shroom saying "PLUR" in one day...as funny of a joke as one may find it, is a blatent attempt at devalidating the rating system.
And Randolph mentions that one opinion doesnt sabatoge it, and I definatly agree with that. But allowing it to happen once, allows it to happen twice (which I believe we are even seeing w/ unagipie), which allows it to happen as many times as one feels like, until it seems pointless to rate anyone at all.
I dont think anyone is real bummed out about the one shroom rating, the people who have voiced concern seem secure enough with themselves that a one shroom rating isnt going to truly upset them.
I think the issue lies in...Why have them if they aren't used in a genuine manner.
From reading around it appears that people like to see what other people say about one another. One suggestion could be to just rid the shroom rating system but leave the ability to comment. But I understand that that probably wouldnt be the most agreed upon opntion

Compensate by giving 5 to everyone he gave 1.
-------------------- Republican Values: 1) You can't get married to your spouse who is the same sex as you. 2) You can't have an abortion no matter how much you don't want a child. 3) You can't have a certain plant in your possession or you'll get locked up with a rapist and a murderer. 4) We need a smaller, less-intrusive government.

Great idea, Diploid. 
However, Unagapie has copied spud's inane PLUR idea, so now everyone has two 1-shroom ratings.
The OTD toilet is overflowing.

Yes, that is my objection. My rating itself is NOT the issue. The issue is whether the rating system has a purpose. If so, there should be some rules about its' use. If not, then get rid of it.
I like the idea of comments as opposed to numerical (shroomerical?) ratings. 
If everyone is allowed to use the system to play adolescent games, it is pretty useless.

Personally, I only look at the trade ratings.

Well, if they do it for no reason, it invalidates the system in the same way. And it is still pointless.

yeah.... just like a bunch of kids... Glowing_Eleven at least had some kind of reason to his rating these two are just abusing the system The OTD toilet is overflowing indeed!
i tend to abstain from entering OTD but lately i see stuff like this all over the BB that makes me wonder what started it... so i go to OTD and sure enough there's a thread some idiot started and thought it was funny if he rated everyone with "PLUR" (WHAT THE FUCK IS THAT BTW?) or some sort of drama about people getting banned or some guys thread gets jacked for something he said in OTD... etc...etc...
don't people have anything better to do with their time? seem's like all they're after is making them selves look "cool" or "witty" or whatever just like a bunch of middle school kids!
but yeah i guess it's pretty pointless to even complain about it... we can't make people grow up... i think i'm gonna start using the ignor option...
