Everything I do gets around 3 votes, then suddenly dies into the -5 hell.

Same here. “Hey, 3 votes.. people like it! Oops, spoke too soon.”

I contend that most voters just don’t “get it.”

And my contention is more often than not correct. Log in to see images!

People aren’t exactly reading carefully anyhow. Nuanced humor seems to die in a heartbeat. “****-male reproductive organ-shakespearean insult” seems to work a lot better.

All my submissions get voted down. Now I just come up with terrible ideas for enemies. Otherwise my remaining submission would just go to waste. I mean, you can’t get less than 6 right?

I just submitted my first set of suggestions for this week, and I got 24 Chocolate scoops. I’m not in any sort of Klan, so it’s not a matter of connections. I guess I just have a lot of experience in this subject area.

Level 18 Camwhore

“Playground Pin-Up”

You know it’s sad when I get very excited, not because my idea has a high score (because it isn’t even a 5), but because I’m getting so many votes total on my idea. Most of my ideas get -5 withing 10-15 votes, and right now I have my idea with a total of over 100 votes.

I’m boggled when things that clearly aren’t forums get upvoted.

Idk, I though YouBoob was brilliantly done considering it’s not a forum. However, I agree for the most part, one problem I see with wiccipedia is that half the people are just bumuming it’s a forum and the other half are treating it as wikipedia (with stuff like “someone needs to edit that out!”.

Ok, I submitted the Snopes parody (Snoops), and it made it to the top 10 last week, but immediately got shot down to -5 today. What gives?

This bugs me a little bit, but honestly, the broader the topic the better, imo. There have been some forum ideas that I would have upvoted if they were just a little broader- for example, there was a baby names forum that I think has potential. However, it’d be a lot better as a general baby discussion forum, which can contain baby name jokes as well as other stuff.

Honestly, I think the reason why we’re seeing this with Wiccapedia is that people are way too lazy (myself included) to write entire short articles. Mbumive kudos to anyone who wants to try, though. Log in to see images!

“Leave it to Cleavage”

It’s just not that easy to write a post that a lot of people will find funny, enough that you can outdo the people trying to raise their own entries via collusion or something.

I carelessly entered four or five off the cuff things the first week, they were all voted down and I lost entries. then I entered one very careful suggestion that I thought about and fixed up nicely the next week, it went up to around +20 and stayed there, though it didnt make it into the final forum, but I got a few chocolate scoops out of it.

Yeeeah, I had 4 -5s so far. A couple at 20+, but crap, I’m doomed.

I’m not sure, but I think forumbuildr score is based off of total net votes. If you don’t get any votes one week, I don’t think it will change.
