Reputation on votes NO !

I’m sorry but how could it be possible to vote NO, and with reason if at anytime you receive a red point for your vote, There was two time I contribute to a U.S DVD, And  I received two negative votes, This was something incorrect I agree with that, and I Withdraw my contributions and I’m trying to find what I’m doing wrong. But  I will never give a red point to the negative vote,  there are always a reason for that. The only thing I cannot agree with, are that the people are injured, or not polite.

-----------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------
Sorry But, the UPC are the same But the contribution country are French country.Just change your country :-) 0 1
-----------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------

-----------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------
Uncorect regions, and studios please check the DVD. and Use DVD decrypter or Nero for region those are quiet correct. Thank You 0 1
-----------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------

I’m really think that they must be exist a system to make the difference between a vote NO correctly, and a non accepted vote. Of course I don know , but I’m don’t think that there must be the case in the U.S voting. I Find this system excellent , for the inappropriate language,  or insulting someone, There are PM for ask some explanation , many French contribution don’t coming anymore , I don’t talking about the one who’s make contribution from everything and nothing, I’m taking about the very good one, the one who’s making the database correctly.

In the EG: For the first it was front cover from one country  and the back one from the correct country, it was from an Italian country. But not the back it was from the French country.

For the second , ( I have  must to refused tree times ) last time I lockup my profile and I let it go .  it was for regions I’m checking two times the region, and I knows that the studios where not correct, the studios where not writing on the DVD. Just on the Cover, I think that some Editor must also taking her informations by another source than the DVD.

In fact,  question,  Cover, DVD, informal source, Imdb, There are many times that the source are not indicated in the contributions ( French One) but before voting you must thinking that you have a sword of Damocles on your head. I like very much invelos  but sometime you are tired to see what’s happened. I hope that’s Ken Will find a way to resolve those kind of problems, Of course I know this are not necessary to do it with the U.S contributor, This don’t happen. 

Thank You.

These are clearly an abuse of the Reputation Voting system, Jean. Pay absolutely no attention to them or copy the it to Ken or Gerri. Remember that  such votes, when dealt with will wind up going tthe Rep of the abusing user and having a negative impact on THEM.

Yes that's quiet correct, But I don’t know if you al ready download a French profile, at 95% they are not finish, I have only two method to contribute a profile, I don’t said they are good certainly not. But I'm trying to put them correctly in the database. First for the TV serial, I send contribution to fix The EAN, buy this way I’m sure this are the good one, and with all information’s concerning the DVD unless the cast and crew, But not more than two or tree day after I complete them. The second are for Movies I never contribute a movies not complete, if I make contribution for a movies this one are Finish. And at any time I hope with no error, but if some find one and correct them , that's great.

I buy many DVD directly from the U.S but when I download the profile I buy from the state this problem doesn’t exist. There are always complete.

I remember a case ( not later than a week or two ) in witch I write to a contributor from witch it was very easy to see that's his contribution where coming from IMDb , I’m tell him I don’t have anything if you chose to copy a IMBd Cast and Crew But please check after with your DVD, since your profile are not correct. And this people said, that's not one of your business, if there are accepted I don’t care about the rules, but not in a PM, by E-mail that's the reason because I remove my E-mail from the forum. 

I think that the problem now are that many guys awaiting that someone contribute a profile, to make a profit from the job of another. I contribute more than 3000 profiles completely finish and about 200 or more corrections, I’m not searching about correction, I am very happy that’s some peoples find them to make the base as well. But if some  people begin to corrupt the base with wrong correction, there no others solution to vote NO. 

And when you said that “The universe's way of balancing things out I guess” in my humble opinion you are right.

And for quoting Sith, yes that's the thru and that’s also right we must realize that. But when I see the interest of the English people for the base, I’m speaking for the language not the country, well I’m thinking this must be another world.

You are just realizing that contribution system doesn't work anymore.

People killed it by excessive nonsensical use : we needed Ken and Gerry clarifications not to put hyphens in the middle of words in overviews, or to transform FRANCOIS to François, things that were evident with a minimum of common sense, and now some people want to put XIII as an alternative to X-Men 3 
And the system of votes, as it is, makes people hate one another  .

I proposed a new system, which was never really discussed  as it was sabotaged by  your (ex) (new) friend who made everything he could to make lock the threads, which really happened. What is funny is that several monthes after he insulted me for refusing to contribute anymore, he said he stopped  himself contributing  .

I think you know the solution to your problem, as I already wrote you in the french forum, and I'm sorry for you  that your always excellent work encounters problems 

Perhaps Ken will change one day this system, perhaps he will not. Number of (good) contributions will depend of that.

The contribution system works fine, except for ONE area that chooses to ignore them, Yves. Anyone who works with the program knows this and they know where that area is...sadly, but NOT surprisingly.

You and those like you, Yves are CORRUPTING the database for EVERYONE else in the world. Your countrymen's behavior in Contributing  and abuse of the reputation system as documented by Jean is simply outrageous and totally unacceptable.

I could make someother comments in this regard but I don't think it is necessary. I am giving serious consideration to FIXING every corrupted French file I can find. Were I Ken and Gerri I would summarily refeuse ANY Contribution from Region 2 France save for a few users. You have proven yourselves to be anarchists...led by I suspect you. or perhaps Cyrille.

Now follow the Rules France.

You always comment about Ken changing the system, he may one day, but YOU want it changed to YOUR way and that is NOT likely to ever happen. So simply follow the Rules and stop being the rotten apple in the barrel.

Look at what you are doing, Yves. You are lecturing Jean because he will not toe YOUR line. You do not own this program, Ken and Gerri do you WILL toe their line. If you do not wish to and CHPOOSE not to Contribute that is your affair but stop ruining everything.

I agree with Skip's sentiment.  Here we have Runmovies trying to contribute good profiles, based on the rules, and he is getting nothing but grief.  Rather than blaming the people who are giving him grief, you want to blame the system.  If he, with his self professed bad english, can follow the rules, why can't the others?

From what Runmovies has said, I am beginning to think it is the latter and not the former.  It is an unfortunate situation and I feel bad that he is having to deal with it.

Twas not an attack, Yves. Merely an observation. France apparently cannot even properly deal with titles per the rules. You attack the system for absolutely noother reason than you want it done your WAY, and then to make it even worse you(collectively) seem to intentionally sabotage all the hard work done boy everyone else...who is following the Rules. France is no different than anyone else, i call upon you to climb down off your high horse and merely follow the Rules, as the system changes so will we, but it will NEVER becoime what YOU want it to be for one very big reason.

BTW I am not amused that you take it so lightly. I have reviewed numerous titles in the French p[art of the overall Db and it is a massive train wreck. That needs to be rebuilt from scratch. You have many options surfeur, the most productive of which ius to start following the Rules, the other options I won't bother to go into.

You being the front man, get the blame, sir. I suggest you start doing something positive to correct. I am not unfamiliar with the goings on in the French Forum either.

La France, that's a hard one to contribute and as pictures says more than words:




In short this is a rental only dvd. He/She thinks it is the wrong cover and probably can contributed a cover in the weekend. Weekend passed and no corrected cover and my contribution got declined.
Lucky for me this did not result in a from that voter
Sources for one or more of the changes and/or additions were not submitted. Please include the sources for your changes in the contribution notes, especially for cast and crew additions.
