Thamk you. No wonder it's 600. Every damn movie I visit all the links were downvoted

Btw, why can't I edit my comment? Sometimes there is a edit option but it disappears after one time edit. And most of the time it disappears even without any editing .

I have been watching alot of downvoted links lately to see if there really is a problem or just spite, and all of them have been great for me, i voted up on all of them.
God
That is just crazy! Why would you do that? If links work the thumbs up and if not thumbs down. I usually pick links that have previously worked for me and go from there.

I'd only been here a few days when I noticed some complaints about downvoting vidzi links. Yeah, I'd downvoted a few times when the link wouldn't work, but then I noticed that when I went back and retried a link, it usually worked. So, no more downvoting...it mightn't be the link, but my computer or the net having it's monthlies. I restrict my voting to positive votes for the links that work, and thanks to everyone who provides them. It's really not so hard to be nice when even I can manage it. ;)
@CandleMagick Hello again. 
Me, I generally start from the bottom and try unrated linkers first because if they don't get any activity in a given time frame they might get cut and have to reload which must be a mammoth task. Bit soppy I suppose. 
@saxon901 Hi Saxon! Nice to hear from you again! I admit, I've learned a few names in the links that I trust and prefer, so I usually go with them time after time. I hadn't considered your outlook, so perhaps it's time to rethink my strategy. You know, soppy can really be a good thing...maybe it'll be a little contagious.

That's kinda pathetic, a downvote troll lol. <br> I always give an upvote for a link that works, but as already been said sometimes if they don't I am aware it might be my connection/computer, so I only downvote when I click an older link and it says that the file has expired or been removed. <br> Also when looking at links to try on older ones I try any with a plus vote first. I figure that feature is there to help us - don't need anyone messing with that.

This user continued down-voting links. I banned him forever. <br> <br> Thinking of disabling voting for anonymous users.

@Dr.Evil Yo this is just my opinion but limiting the votes is an immature rushed solution. Now i'm not able to vote on legitimate links cause my limit has been reached? I feel like you can do better than that~ I don't know bout everyone else, but i go by the rating when i select links to watch. Links already have a limited number of votes anyway. Now their could potentially be less?
@Dr.Evil How about disabling voting for all and problem solved? <br> <br> And someone again started downvoting live links. Below is just an example there is more of them. <br> dosmovies.com/watch_movie/Overboard_2018....

I know I downvoted openload links recently because I thought someone was uploading the wrong video (I.e., not even a tv show), but it seems that openload has a new ad that begins every upload? Not sure...

I have no regard for the plus, minus rating system. I just look for the people I trust. Always done it that way. I figure when some .. people put up a new link, they minus the others to try to get the traffic.

this down voting on your comments or anything you upload on the site it doesnt bother me i actually think its hillarious when i see it on mine 
i didnt think i was that intresting good or bad that someone or some people waste thr time pressing the dislike button i mean really do you think its gonae hurt my feelings just because i have been down voted no chance haha 
but i have to say i have noticed and its not just on mine on but on other users aswell mostly 2 other users its getting rather childish , if you dont like that person thats fine but everyones entitled to thr opinion and can upload pic or news or anything else they do on the site and it doesnt mean you have to like or dislike everything they do if its a dislike for a real reason thats different but from what am seeing its about not likeing them so downvoting them is a childish way of saying haha i dont like you its like cyber bullying so grow up or grow some ballz and comment back 
like i said it doesnt bother me so down vote away but for the other users give it a by its pathetic

I would like to make a suggestion on this. I have seen a few users who have been banned for upvoting their own links so that they get all the traffic and hits. I agree with banning them as it's cheating the system / site. <br> <br> However, when they have been banned, all of their links stay on site. So for example, all of Norbiland's links are almost all at the top of each movie, and hes still benefiting even after being banned. <br> <br> I would suggest when a user is banned, their links are also removed.
@Horror⚰️ I too like the register to vote. Its just one of those features that's abused too much everywhere. We fix the voting feature somewhere, they move to where we haven't fixed it yet.. It's asinine... Look at the Playlist section, no longer any rated 10 playlists. everything is now getting trolled down. Even when I rate something up or down, it doesn't matter, lols.... 
<br> People can watch for free, no reason really for em to vote unless registered.. it's kinda part of being registered anyways I feel what with all the other features that are register only as well...
@Melted~Dreams Yeah it's one of those things that has always happened on most sites unfortunately. The only logical way to soften it is to make it harder for people to do it ( I say 'people' loosely there by the way )
<br>
<br> And yeah I think being part of the community should give people the extra privileges of being able to vote and comment on things. If people want to that much then they will take the two minutes to register. I feel if someone does register they're more likely to come back too, rather than having a fleeting visit.

I've just banned this user dosmovies.com/user/riimz274.... for abusive links down-voting. Don't be stupid and don't try to repeat. <br> <br> P.S. Info about link rating is available only for me.
@Dr.Evil This is probably his fault then: dosmovies.com/watch_movie/Samson_2018.... or maybe not, dont want to accuse anyone :)
@Флеркен He down-voted more than 600 links in last 4 days.
@Dr.Evil OMG thats just crazy
@Dr.Evil Wow, someone doesn't have a life!
@Dr.Evil should be put on two-movies hall of shame for making a history in here :p
@Флеркен I checked each of the 4 links to make sure they worked and corrected the fake downvotes.
@Dr.Evil In the name of all falsely down-voted like me THANK YOU
@Dr.Evil Thank you!! It's good to know that you're proactive. I've seen the down vote go pear shaped way too many times and constant berating and virtual stalking that accompanies it to ever want to see it again.
@Dr.Evil rofl.. that's what happens when you don't take things seriously. didn't I even make a forum thread about this months back? just lol.. If my memory serves me, people even got butthurt over me trying to tell them to please not abuse it. well, rofl I say. Just lol. 600 in 4 days, Jebus..
@Melted~Dreams Every new feature: <br> 1) time <br> 2) money
