Hey, look guys - he's finally figured out how to get his bots to vote high.

 

[sr71plt]

May I suggest that you yourself concentrate on producing stories that will attract readers? Up to now your elitism seems to have prevented you from forming a bond with the thousands and thousands of people who flock to the site every day. Your continuing need to dazzle a few AHers with your brilliance seems to have become your priority. Instead of writing something someone might want to read.

You can try to become a writer or you can continue down the road you’re traveling now – the road to becoming an old, fussbudget, know-it-all critic who’s completely out of touch with the reading public - your choice.

Me, I think I’ll continue to write best sellers.

Jim

I'm quite pleased with my reader base here, thanks. I certainly wouldn't take the desperate cartoon character "seemeSEEmeohohseeME!" route you've taken. The real pity is that the possibility is good that you've convinced yourself that your cheated numbers are real/mean anything.

 

[michchick98]

miss chick - i said the results, not the rules....you've gotta work on your reading comprehension...

My reading comprehension is just fine, except when I'm tired....working 60 hours a week in 90 degree heat can do that to a person.

However, that makes even less sense that you ask them to post the results after every contest.

Uh, that's what they already do. Maybe it's you who has a problem with reading comprehension.

No, actually, (oh the pain) he has a point.
Instead of just posting the placegetters, it would be nice if they posted the winning scores as well.
I know by the time I usually see the results the trolls have been busy and the winners scores are somewhat tarnished. I'd like to know what the benchmarks are for the winning stories.

Another tack

Actually... and I think everyone recognizes that the current system just doesn't work, that it's been turned into a bit of a circus by a handful of authors that work to manipulate the system, through self promotion, jealousy voting, etc. The site tries to keep it under control, but I think it's failing to do what it should, which is to put the best stories in front of the site visitors (i.e. readers), to keep them coming back for more.

But... it would probably be best if they didn't post any scores, anywhere, including visible to the author himself. Hide them completely, so nobody knows what they are.

The Top Lists and New pages should have a random element, just like the genre links do. Just randomly show stories from the top 500, in no particular order, on every page view. Maybe slightly increase the chances of a story being displayed if it has higher vote totals. For example, a story with a 5.0 rating has twice the chance of being displayed as a story with a 4.8 rating.

By doing it this way, no one really knows which particular story is the top vote getter, so it's hard for anyone to put much effort into affecting scores, up or down. Beyond that, it's probably more fair. The fact that one story has a 4.86 score and another a 4.87 score really doesn't mean the second story is better. There are too many variables (such as was the first published on a Tuesday versus a Friday, when there will be fewer readers in the next few days, before it drops off of the front of the New list).

By hiding the scores, and adding a random element, more stories get exposure, and over time, the best stories really will float to the top.

Oh, and beyond that, each list should have an option to be displayed by month or year (what were the top stories for 2005, or for May, 2007?). Stories that are years older have a huge advantage, because they've had more time to accumulate more reads and votes, but come from a different era, so to speak. It's like trying to compare pitchers in baseball from 1930 versus today. The game has changed, the rules have changed, technology has changed, the population of the country has changed. You can't do it.

Just my two cents.

Real or imagined, Scouries may have the answer with his claim that the site ownership pays him to write his beloved stories.

Maybe the answer to improving the site for authors and readers alike is for the site ownership to share some of the wealth with those who have helped them reap it.

I'd take a penny for every word I wrote of a tenth of a penny for every hit to one of my stories.

It's not the money, but more the principle for me. It's difficult to maintain motivation when writing for free while watching your stories bounce around all over the Internet. Everyone appears to be making money from what we write but us.

Yeah, sure, there are contests here, but there are more writers than there are winners. We need a better way to spread the wealth around.

I say we all gather our keyboards and march to Literotica's headquarters demanding our fair share. What do you say? Is anyone else with me?

Before I head out, does anyone know where Literotica's headquarters is? I have a feeling it will take me more than a tank of gas to drive there. I could fly, but I'd have to pay to check my bags and the ticket prices have gone way up with the price of a barrel of oil. I figure if I start walking now, I should get there by November. Don't wait for me.

I know that if I was paid something, anything, I'd care less about the bashers and more about the writing process.

 

[Darkniciad]

Nobody knows where they stand now *laugh* It doesn't matter what your score is, once it falls into the mixer of the final sweep, it could end up floating in a completely different layer.

If the scores weren't visible, those who are determined to downvote other stories would simply go the extra mile -- bombing early and bombing often. The cheerleaders would do the same on the opposite end of the scale.

Hiding the author ( which would stop me from entering contests completely, because all I'm ever going to get is exposure ) or mixing up the display isn't going to stop it either. The author knows which story is his or hers, and can email the fanbase with the direct link.

It's an internet poll, and it's going to be subject to internet trolls.

The system that's in place now, so long as the results are based completely upon voting by the masses, is probably just as good as anything else that anyone could propose.

Actually, I think I could propose lots of improvements. The current system is simple, relatively easy to maintain, and works to some degree, so I'm not saying Laurel and Manu need to bend over backwards to change things.

But the goal of the system should be to put the best writing in front of readers, and to weed out the chaff. Right now, it's a system that can be exploited easily. If you just write as much as you can, so people keep seeing your name over and over, or put up a lot of threads and posts about yourself, or develop a fan base (you only need a relatively small base to do so), or write a bot, or...

Alternatives?

I already suggested, on other threads, a readers contest, structured so that reliable voters can be identified and "exploited" (imagine the scores if only people that have a "good", unbiased voting record were counted).

Link to post on readers contest

Alternately... get rid of the idea of an anyone-can-vote poll and develop a cadre of critics. Critics create their own "suggested reading" lists, and visitors can follow the advice of critics that most often steer them properly.

We have volunteer editors... I'm sure a lot of people would volunteer to be critics, because it's less work than editing.

There are other things you can do, statistically (I do this kind of thing for a living, actually), although I'm not suggesting Manu go to those lengths. Obviously, he does, with his sweeps, and I don't blame him for not explaining it. It's both too complicated to be explained to non computer types, and explaining it will let you exploit any weaknesses. He does need to keep it private.

But there are lots of things that can be done, and based on this thread, it appears to be a big, big problem. But not for the reasons people posting on this thread seem to think. Everyone seems to think they're a great writer, and they deserve a crown.

I think that readers deserve to see the best stories, and the site will be best served by pushing those stories to the forefront, not for individual author recognition, but so that the site appears to promote quality over quantity, and bury the total crap.

As far as getting money as authors. Sorry, no. It's Laurel and Manu's site, they do all the work. If you're really that good, go get published. If you don't like that, create your own site. This site is what it is, and what they want it to be. Begging for pennies when you have no idea how much work they have to do (and you write for fun, but running this site is work) is silly.

I agree with this. I think the contests would be helped, though, if they just did away with the money award. That just brings out the worst in people. And, indeed, we see the worst in people in the contests here.

And in general, I think that the backbiting voting woud be lessened if the "hot" designations went to two categories. 4.50-5.00 for "sizzling hot" and 4.00-4.49 for "hot." I think authors justifiable would like to see that their 4.43 story is distinguished from 2.50 stories and wouldn't fight so hard to shove themselves over 4.50 just for any distinction.

Sourcies suggested a pretty good system a week or so ago--just put the rating next to the listing of all stories, so the reader can see precisely where it falls.

But then, I think it's spitting in the wind to suggest any changes to the Web site.

 

[Rob_mDear]

Another POV

Let me put it another way... a scalar rating, like 0-5, cannot possibly measure a story. Some people give it a 2 because the writing sucks. Some a 2 because the main female character didn't scream "I'MMMMM CUMMMMMINNNNNGGG" and the guys cock wasn't listed in inches. Some give it a 2 because it was listed in inches. Some give it a 2 because there was too much really good, meaningful story and not enough sex.

So what rating a story gets kind of depends on whether it attracts the right kind of readers. A lot of stories have high scores because they are primarily voted on by that author's fans and no one else. It's like electing the class president in high school. Who's the most popular?

You cannot rate multi-dimensional things like stories with a simple, single, linear value. It's meaningless.

And you can't ask people to rate a story on different things (writing, plot, sex) because they already can't be bothered to vote one number, let alone three or more. Plus, even within each category, you still get different tastes.

What you can do is to apply some statistical clustering algorithms to try to sort out what groups of people like which stories, sort of backing into "these stories are rated high by the same people, so they must have something in common that those people like." But that's all very complicated, and it's what I was saying I'd never ask Manu to do.

 

[sr71plt]

Sweeping all of this aside is the reality that voting is primarily an author's obsession. Readers are under no obligation to either vote or comment and many don't for reasons that have nothing to do with whether or not they liked what they read. And many types of readers respond vastly differently in general (e.g., Romance readers tend to like to respond/connect somehow; gay men don't). Voting and comments do "feed" a writer's creativity and interest in writing, but since most readers aren't writers, they don't understand this--and there's no reason why they should. There's no nice neat little order that's greatly meaningful to make out of any of this "reacting" process.

 

[Rob_mDear]

I agree wholeheartedly... and I think the point of scores should not be contests, awards, egos, or whatnot. I know that they are, but shouldn't be. My only interest in all of this is the goal of getting readers to read the things that they will like.

Everyone would have more readers, and more exposure, if more people came to the site and quickly found what they liked, quickly enough to decide to return regularly. The authors that are manipulating scores and views and everything else are messing it up for everyone.

I personally found literotica years ago, saw a bunch of pathetic crap, and didn't return for years. It was only six months ago that I stumbled in again, was bored enough to hang around to find one story I really liked, and then realized there was more here than just crap. It took a lot of hunting, and I still don't read much, because finding the good stuff takes too much work. Writing is more fun. But when I find a great story by accident (most recently Anna_Malia75's Best Served Cold? I Think Not.) I'm shocked.

I personally wish there was a way to find more things that I like. But there's not. Most of the stuff at the top of the Top Lists is shockingly bad. Same with "Most Read." Et cetera, et cetera.

QUOTE mickchik A-I certainly don't think it's any of your business what mine or anyone else's are.
B- It's pretty simple really, if someone clicks on a story link, that's a view.
C- So that includes YOURS, Mr. Scouries. If EVERY story on Literotica is overrated, you must not fail to include yourself in that.
D- Uh, that's what they already do. Maybe it's you who has a problem with reading comprehension.

A – Nonsense, you’re quite happy to parade your H’s. I’d just like to see what that H is based on (vote totals and views).

B – Not exactly. Some people believe as you do, others (including even some AH veterans) don’t. It’s a subject which in fact comes up every couple of months. I have sent both private massages and made public posts to our leaders requesting clarification (as have others I understand) but have never received an answer. All that’srequired is a public definition on the FAQ page: a ‘view’ is defined as follows on this site….

Personally I believe “VIEWS” are inflated by 5 to 10 times actual numbers. I believe it’s done as a marketing ploy by our leaders, a technique used to draw in authors. Authors are much more likely to submit stories here if they get ‘view’ numbers of 10,000 instead of 1000. It’s simply an ego thing.

C – Yes, my stories are over ‘rated’ by the sites scoring system. And while perhaps not to the degree that some of the worst categories are (Sci-fi, Novels, Non-human) I don’t believe that 95% of my submissions deserve a 90-96% percent rating! Even the great scouries isn’t perfect!
Let’s face it – at best we’re fair amateurs.

D – My suggestion re contest results is as follows: At the end of every contest I would like to see the rating, the number of views, the number of votes and the number of disqualified votes for every entry listed. I’ve made this suggestion to Laurel the last three or four contests and have willingly provided the statistics on my own stories. Heres what I posted on the winners announcement thread after the Earth Day Contest

LAUREL,

I posted the following comment after the VALENTINES Day Contest. My opinion hasn’t changed since then. It would be a first step in restoring credibility to the contest system.
________________________________________
It might be nice if, at the end of one of these contests, you actually listed the scores and the number of votes the score was based on for each of the contest entries.

It's generally accepted practice to publish the results of a vote after you've invited people to participate.

I think all of us would also be curious on how many votes were swept away on each story.

jrs

p.s. my numbers:

Cousin Scouries Tree Hugging Daughter

221 votes
4.53 rating
46,000+ views
600+ votes deleted
35 comments

- This is the lowest total number of votes received on a scouries story in over 2 years.
- The votes as a percentage of total views (less than ½ of one percent) is the lowest on any scouries story in over a year.
- The deleted votes as a percentage of total votes cast is the highest of any scouries story in history (over 75%).

All these are strange results given the site has made it easier to vote and yet has made it harder to double vote. Seeing that many other contest authors are also reporting much larger vote losses than in previous years it might be a good time for you or MANU to give us some explanation for these bizarre results.


And please mickchikdon’t argue it’s none of my business - anyone who takes the time to enter a story in a contest that supposedly is to be decided by the public’s votes has every right to see the complete results.

And hey, don’t work so hard! Life’s too short as it is. Take the time to smell the flowers…or…

First off, yes I do know where HQ’s is. But if I tell you Freddie we’ll have to kill you.

As you know I’m a great believer in spreading the wealth around. There are a couple of problems though.

The main one is that in spite of the millions of dollars that our writings have generated for the Royal Family, there is something of a financial crisis at HQ’s. Perhaps what we need most from you is not your writing ability but your accounting acumen.

But I would like to point out that it’s not ROYALTY payments made to yours truly or the other eight royalty receiving authors who are the cause of the problem.

Quite frankly the Queen has become quite profligate in her spending. I ask you, how can an avowed nudist spend $225,000 per annum on clothes? She’s worse than Shaq! The castle staff has doubled in the last year while revenues only rose 25%!

She’s now surrounded twenty-four hours a day by her own personal Praetorian Guard, an elite cadre of seven foot tall, well muscled Zulu warriors, spear toting naked sentinels who all sport foot long, uncircumcised penises.

Even MANU has become concerned lately, wondering how long they can hold on as his QUEEN wastes the kingdom’s riches.

I did ask the ROYALS to admit you to the ROYALTY EARNING CIRCLE last year but was refused. However, I did finally convince the QUEEN to send you a small token of her appreciation of your work. Yes Freddie, the five grand came from the Queen! Just don’t tell her I told you….

Don't ask, don't get

Perhaps, with some highly placed compliments we could fool the queen, as they did in the Emperor's New Clothes, and make her believe that she is wearing beautiful clothes instead of being naked.

"That is such a beautiful dress, Laurel. It's such sheer silk that it looks like you are wearing nothing."

If we continue that logic with more compliments every day, then she'll no longer need to buy clothes and will grace me with a ten thousand dollar bonus this year instead of the five thousand that she generously gave me last year.

By the way, with the volume of stories that I have my hit total is approaching the ten million mark. Surely that warrants, at the very least, a Literotica T-shirt, extra large, please, or a Literotica coffee mug. How about a refrigerator magnet that shows the logo of the woman on the main page?

Well, who am I? Just one of those lowly elitists, surely not worthy of expressing an opinion, especially one that the great Lord Scouries finds objectionable. In his great democracy, all readers are equal... but not all authors.

At least there is freedom of expression. That's democratic. Except not if you have an opinion that is not shared by the great Lord Scouries. That is not even discussed. Such a one is summarily dismissed.

profligate spending on clothes​

Although your idea sounds good (clearly your accounting background came to the fore here) there is an even larger spending problem in the palace. JEWELRY!!!!

Yes jewelry. Like rubies…emeralds…pearls…gold and silver…diamonds…in every shape and form. Although a proud nudist her charms are invariably hidden behind layers of sparkling gems, and as she moves proudly around the palace one only receives quick glimpses of her full breasts, her thick nipples… her shaven mound simply a hidden platform for the jewels it hides behind.

In the final analysis, their persecution of the revolutionary people only serves to accelerate the people's revolutions on a broader and more intense scale.

…If the LITEROTICA monopoly capitalist groups persist in pushing their policies of aggression and stupidity, the day is bound to come when they will be hanged by the readers of the whole world. The same fate awaits their running dog accomplices in AH land, these odious “paper tigers”.

…What is a true bastion of iron? It is the masses, the millions upon millions of readers who genuinely and sincerely support the revolution. That is the real iron bastion which it is impossible, and absolutely impossible, for any force on earth to smash. The counter-revolution cannot smash us; on the contrary, we shall smash it. Rallying millions upon millions of readers round the scourian revolution and expanding our revolutionary war, we shall wipe out all counter-revolution and take over the whole of LITEROTICA.

And maybe his wisest words:

...Our fundamental task is to adjust the use of labour power in an organized way and to encourage women to do farm work and not write Romance stories.

So get lost buddy!

This part of Celt's story is quite exciting after the slowness of the previous section of text. I have always enjoyed reading Celt's writing and this story is no exception. I cannot wait to see what Celt now does with Walt's new enthusiasm and discovery. Regarding this story (prior to the present installment) AND Ohio's recent posted story, I have also noted that the more 'classic' very good writers of stories in "Loving Wives" have not posted stories that were as powerful as previously. I agree with 'Harry in VA' on this. I think that maybe one reason for this is the large number of new writers now posting on Literotica. This could be affecting Celt's and Ohio's thoughts. If it were administratively possible, it might be good to have an editorial broad formed overseeing the posting of desirable stories in "Loving Wives." There would be, perhaps as in scientific journals, a group of editors that read and rate stories as acceptable for posting, as acceptable but requiring minor changes, as requiring major revision, and rejected. That way less posting would occur and the effects of the established good authors would not be diluted in the sea of new stories. Just a thought. RAG
