iStockPhoto.com / Strange rating on the site
« on: October 14, 2011, 05:58 »
This file has already 13 "5" ratings and 24 views and it is already in the Highest Rated Files (week sorted).
The same user has another file with only 10 "5" ratings, a plane on a blue sky.

Is this some kind of "vote mine and I will vote yours" strategy? In my opinion the file is not worth so many 5 ratings. Actually i would not even rate that one.
