An 8 and a 6, followed by a 1. Is it great or does it suck? I like having a love it or hate it entry.

Nikon AF Zoom-Nikkor 70-200mm f/2.8 VR DG IF-ED

Was at 6.5 and because of a 1 and a 3 I'm at 6.43.

Still a fun, happy score by all means!! But it's still a shock to drop that much with a couple of votes.

Anyone still above 7.0?

Had dropped to 6.43 overnight. Just came home from a retirement party and found that I had gotten 5 votes with a 8.40 average! So majorly cool!

Slowly going in the right direction. It's already higher than I had expected. Some great comments indicate I got my idea across.

I consider "trolling" to be similar to queue jumping in which case is telling someone not to push in front of you in a queue as bad as doing it yourself?
after all there are generally no rules or laws in many places where one has to queue saying that it is an offence to jump the queue.

Just for the record I did not harass anyone

Very little work actually as there were only about 10 people online at the time so it only took a few mins, and my rationale was that it had taken me several hours to produce the pic so spending 5 mins to find out who thought it worthy of a 1 was reasonable.

Take a look at the vote profile on this winning entry

I got hit by a 1 when very few people were online and manage to track down who it was from their voting average.
I sent them a polite PM giving them the benefit of the doubt.

They mailed back apologising and promising not to do it again and as far as I can see they haven't

A low vote with a comment is fair enough.

Bit of a drop. Maybe I'll get lucky and still continue my 6 or above streak here...
