Image Share section overhaul and investigation
First of all having multiple accounts on TESNexus is not allowed and in most cases will mean all accounts will be banned from the site entirely. Secondly deliberately rating your own or other user's images high or low in order to try and fiddle the top 25 to your liking is not only pathetic, but bannable. It stands against everything this site and community is about. People who want to partake in these actions are not welcome here. Thirdly, people taking it upon themselves to try and get revenge against these pathetic individuals are also not welcome here. We have strict rules against vigilantism and the saying goes "our way, or the high way".
If you don't like how we work then please just leave and don't look back. If you think things need changing then leave a respectable message on the forums and wait and see; if you don't get your way it isn't your right to try and screw things up on the site in an attempt to get your way. If anything it will simply fill me with enough contempt to remove the feature from the site entirely.
Until I get around to making changes to the Image Share section (that have been in the pipeline for months) all image ratings are disabled along with the top images list. I apologise to those mature users of the site who have been enjoying the Image Share section. Hopefully you'll appreciate the situation and will enjoy the new features and changes made when they're launched.

1- I don't see a lot of noob bashing. Actually, I haven't seen any. Either this is some sort of miracle, or good behavior just rubs off. I, for one, love this.
2- There aren't a few sarcastic jerks running everyone off in some sort of meaningless competition with each other to abuse someone with the best zinger. Battle for Wesnoth was like that.
3- A person comes on here with a problem. People treat that problem with respect and honestly try their best to help.
If you have a second account and wish to discretely pm me, I will quietly ban that account with no questions asked. When reports do come in of disruptive behavior I do check the IP addresses that the offender has used, if I find a duplicate user both accounts or all accounts with the same IP may be baneed without any warning.
We do realize that members of a family will use the same IP, I know of a few off the top of my head. Please let me know and they will be placed on a list in the staff forums for reference purposes.
However ganging up on another won't be tolerated either.
