Reminder about Voting

Reminder about Voting
« on: Oct 19, 2017, 08:39 AM »
Reminder for all members:
You votes are monitored for fairness by Angieness and I.
I realize that everyone votes a little differently and has different standards, but voting in an extreme way is not tolerated. Yes, there are some instances where one side of a comic is amazing and the other side is unfinished and sloppy. In those cases, of course an extreme difference in scores makes sense. But, this is honestly a rare circumstance.

If you cannot vote objectively, your voting privileges will be revoked.

I acknowledge that creativity and entertainment are certainly far more subjective than quality. If you really hate a comic, you should definitely give it a low entertainment score. But, giving a really low score on a comic that is objectively well-drawn, complete, or polished just isn't going to fly. Yes, you may prefer one style over another and give a higher score to your preference, but you have to remain somewhat objective.

Again, everyone votes a little differently but I'm going to give a suggestion on voting fairly for new folks:

10 - AMAZING, one of the best comics you've read on the site. Could be professional work.
8-9 - Very good, maybe one or two things bothered you but overall still VERY good.
6-7 - Above average. Maybe a little sloppy or lazy in parts, but still good work.
5 - Average. Nothing too outstanding but it's not bad either. Definitely needs work, but there was effort.
2-4 - Really needs work. Sloppy, uninspiring, boring.
1 - Absolutely horrible. Almost no one uses this.

For quality, also consider the effort put into the comic. Was it clean and professional looking? Even if the artist is talented, consider docking points for sloppy work. Comics in the 9-10 range should be some of the most polished and amazing work on the site. Reserve the low scores for incomplete comics with minimal effort.

For creativity, consider the story line as well as any interesting visual elements. Was this a totally predictable comic? Did anything surprise you? Reserve the lowest scores for things that were totally uninspiring.

Entertainment is the most subjective vote. Did the comic get any sort of emotional response? Did you laugh or get upset? Reserve the lowest scores for boring and forgettable comics.

Let me know if you have any questions.
