Message troubles places 330 º 13:43 Fri 9/21/2012 Hi, When rating places, a user had to rate at least 10 places for his rating to be taken into account, but that’s no longer like that. Now it allows owners/spam users to change completely a place’s score. why was this great feaure changed ?
Message Theydon_Bois P admin beers 40515 º places 1239 º 14:53 Fri 9/21/2012 Is that correct? I thought it was 10 as per beers? There’s been a few examples of London venues recently being rated as highly as 100/100 by mates/spam accounts (who have a place rating total of 1) having done the review!
Message 3fourths P beers 9492 º places 1576 º 14:53 Fri 9/21/2012 it wasn’t!

Message JoeMcPhee P beers 12092 º places 543 º 19:35 Fri 9/21/2012 It wasn’t changed. If a user has less than 10 ratings, it still doesn’t count toward the score.
Message hopscotch beers 11919 º places 307 º 19:39 Fri 9/21/2012 Originally posted by 3fourths it wasn’t! Thanks for that nugget. It clearly explained away this non-issue. I wonder why Joe even felt the need to jump in here.

Hi, are you sure about that ? It used to display a line ’doesn’t count’ (or something similar) on those ratings, but I don’t see this anymore.

This issue is being looked into.
Message JoeinDahlem beers 1664 º places 356 º 08:57 Mon 9/24/2012 I’ve also noticed an uptick in friendly spamming... makes it a bit tougher to separate the wheat from the chaff, although it’s hard to blame a bar owner and his buddies for trying.
