The Ultimate Vampire Resource and Directory

By popular demand dammit and never again, here is how I rate:



1. Spelling: If there are excessive spelling errors I will definitely down rate you, this is a sign of laziness and disrespect, you don't deserve a high rate if you won't spend the few extra minutes to read over your profile. We all make mistakes and I understand this but there is no excuse for laziness when creating a public page, it's counter productive in fact and I, frankly, don't want to waste my time on someone who feels entitled a certain rating when they refuse to put any effort into their work.



2. Graphics: Graphics tend to be used as space fillers, masks and an excuse not to have to use proper English. If you have excessive, pointless graphics that slow down my computer and force me to spend 5 minutes scrolling down past images I've seen on plenty of other profiles then I will down rate you. That is simply poor construction and once again, lazy.



3. Composition: If you just through a bunch of lists, glitter images, links, protection stamps and a fancy background that makes my computer screen freeze without adding any unique substance I will down rate you.



4. Humor: If you can make me laugh then I will definitely rate you higher. It is proof that you spent time in thinking out your words and understand that this is a social networking site and that it is supposed to be fun.



5. Aggression: If you're just an angry person that's cool, but if your entire profile consists of you yelling at anyone reading it then you clearly don't know what the point of this site is. Down rated.



6. Music: I don't care what music you listen to, I know how to hit 'pause', this will not effect your rate.



7. PM: I don't care if you are a premium member, as far as I'm concerned this gives you an equal oppurtunity to create something beautiful and grotesque, that's all, it has no effect on your rate knowing that you can see it.



8. Respect: If you want to know about your rate, that's perfectly reasonable, just send me a handy little message in a polite manner (full sentences please! I'm taking time on you, all I ask is that you return the favor) and I will be happy to discuss things further.



9. Re-rates: I have no qualms about re-rates, if you've worked hard on your profile then you deserve to reap the benifits. I will not automatically rate you a 10 but I will take into consideration your improvement.



Above all, remember that this is a website, these are imaginary numbers and don't have any effect on you as a person whatsoever. It's a game. Some are just better at it then others, accept that and move on. My profile rating does not effect how I feel about you as a person so don't get too wrapped up in this, for your sanity and mine. Thank you. Goodnight.

Doing some housekeeping lately, don't be alarmed if I deleted one of your Forum posts, I've simply been removing the clutter (i like this, i agree, that's true, unnecessary posts like that). If you have any questions let me know. If I have posted/done something that you don't agree with also, leave me a message and will get back to you. I welcome all comments, good or bad.



Note: Everything I do is sanctioned by MrD if not a direct act delegated by him. If a member and I have an disagreement about something he will not refute my judgment on most matters, bring your complaints/comments about my performance to me directly if you would like any progress made. Circumventing me to him will not be appreciated. I am very understanding and undergo such matters with respect and rationality, I ask that you do the same. I do not expect any such thing to arise but just in case, well, there it is.
