    I have noticed a lot of people ride bandwagons when it comes to reading suggestions or mod apps.

    If some application has 12 no supports no will read it and they will just rate it badly without reading.

    Never happened to me, but I thought I'd share this.

    Well, I haven't been seeing this going on much lately, but it's a good topic to bring up. If someone's suggestion or application has like 18 no support and 4 supports someone would probably pick no support to act like they fit in with other people. I think you should read the suggestion/application and give your comment lots of expression and detail instead of clicking no support since others do that. It is mean to the person that put lots of hard work into their thread and can start being a common issue.

    Yeah happens to be all the time, my application have more no support that support and when others see it they will just click no support without any reason. I asked them why so I can fix the things they don't like but they don't answer me. People that rated my application with no support without any reason
    Best regards, Rolly :(

    I rated it because I didn't think you would be a good mod? You can't acuse someone of bandwagoning just because they don't agree with you?

    Not only that, but I didn't once see you ask me why no support. If you tagged me like this Nick_ I wouldn't have Seen it, not my fault. Please don't acuse people of lies, it makes people seem bad.

    I rated your app with no support because I don't see you helping throughout my week stay. I'm not doing it because others rated no support, I rated it on how I feel about how good you can be. So actually, you're making us look bad for giving our opinions. Sorry, but thank you.

    Putting peoples names out there and tagging them is horrible. they no supported because they didn't want you to be a moderator

    Sometimes it's hard to tell if someone is bandwagoning because they might just have a strong reason why.
    Accusing specific people of bandwagoning is not nice at all. By tagging them, you made it worse.

    I actually agree. Some people are afraid to go against what the others say and will just follow on without giving any thought. Sometimes you need to stop being so scared to disagree and be your own person.
    If the app is getting no supports and you think there is potential, go and comment support.

    I agree with Krissy, Some people go with what everyone is saying or doing in which leads to the problem that Rolly_Pro has. Everyone needs to have their own opinion and be their own person :)
    I also agree with Agent, Rolly_Pro you shouldn't have tagged these people and accused them of something that they could've or could've have not done. It isn't very kind and like agent said it doesn't make the problem better. If someone doesn't answer you in a private message, you just must be patient people can be busy at that certain moment. Anyways that's all from me lol :)

    Same can be said the other way. I no supported, and I am being accused of lies for it. I am being my own person to vote no support, and I am being made to look like a bad person.

    I will clarify something - I HATE bandwagoners, it ruins suggestions. I didn't bandwagon by voting no support, it was my opinion. He did call my name, but I didn't see it because he didn't tag me. Therefore, I can't be held accountable for "Not responding". If he did tag me/quote me and I did see it, I would give my opinion on why.

    He said that he pmed me, he NEVER did, this is a complete lie. Instead he immediately accuses multiple people of "bandwagoning" without any evidence, and that "I asked them why" "No response" is false completely. I can provide my inbox. Sorry if this is over-reacting, but posts like this guy made manipulates people into thinking someone is bad.

    Ironic isn't it? Because they would be on the bandwagon themselves if they believed that.

    If you guys have an issue with Rooly, feel free to PM them and talk to them, but this thread is not here to cause a flame war or create arguments. It is here to cause awareness to the issue that has been brung up.

    Please do not derail the thread anymore and keep it on topic. Thank you. :heart:

    I get that, but when the player is calling us out and tagging us publicly, we should be able to say our opinions publicly. Works both ways.

    I understand, and I left your response. However the continuation of the topic is what I had to delete. It was becoming flamey and off topic.

    I completely understand. :p

    Let's not talk about the Rolly incident anymore (;

    I get what Telefone is saying, and some people do what he said happens. However, not all apps are like that.
