And in my opinion most time they fit.
You got any examples?
When we speak about movies in my opinion it's also a matter a personal tastes. Maybe one movie is rated with 5 star but I don't like it or it's too overvalued
IMDB is an evaluation platform that only concerns the film industry. It's not just movies when it's REPU. Of course rating is influenced by everyone's expectations. To give an example, As for a movie, it depends on what gender they prefer. And with REPU, evaluations will the same , influenced by everyone's expectations.
Let's take the example, a waiter in a restaurant. Some can only evaluate the waiter just for how they were served.Others can do the evaluation for the time they were served Or for some, could count human face. It would be good that, besides the evaluation made, to have a possibility to leave the opinion of the evaluated person.And someone to check the ratings.
Now you ask yourself how can they check them?
Simple. Whoever evaluates on the REPU platform, should have a real profile, and in turn be checked and evaluated in turn.
agree with you, every one on this platform should have real profile for evaluated the reputation. but, everything can be manipulated, such as angry people can made group that will give reputation for cash. this is the problem for devs
look at how elegant Steam is handling their own reputation system. There are overall reviews and recent review now just to filter out shitstorms about recent updates. Good move i think
Agree a reputation system should give you an overview, cannot be just the number, no matter what, somebody will always give the minimum score
I'm still wondering how they will tackle paid bad reviews.. in India you can pay for votings. We've seen this in other review platforms.
maybe they are protected by something like an authority which monitors the movement and blocks imposter
they did mention that they have different methods of screening to determine valid reviews. it remains to be seen what methods are those.
