HotorNot ratings poll

Results | Messages
This poll is for users familiar with the website hotornot.com. I have found that the ratings on hotornot are severely skewed, and have considered that this may be the case of many raters utilizing a very skewed system, or alternatively, using a 3 point rating system, with only ratings of 1, 5 and 10. I have submitted 2 different pictures recently for rating. One of which has garnered a 6.7 rating thus far. The other (which, as far as I'm concerned is by far a better pic) has gotten a feeble 2.8! Many have rated both pictures a 1, but as far as I'm concerned, although I am highly critical of my own looks, VERY few people deserve a one, and I am not one of them. Also I have found that some very generic looking men have gotten phenomenally high ratings into the high 8s and 9s. Therefore, I wish to gain some insight into voting habits.
