I'm being votebotted again!

[MrBogosity]

One of my subscribers PMed me this morning to let me know that I might be the target of a votebot. A lot of my 5-star videos have gone down to 4-stars and even 3.5-stars. Looking at the YouTube Insight pages, it seems he's right.

Here's the page for channel views: http://www.shanekillian.org/files/YouTube%20Insight%20-%20Views%20-%20shanedk%20-%20views.png (I'm linking to these because of the large images.)

Notice that the views have gone up while unique views are steady (possibly dropping slightly).

But now, look at the spike in ratings: http://www.shanekillian.org/files/YouTube%20Insight%20-%20Community%20-%20shanedk.png

And the spike in ratings per view: http://www.shanekillian.org/files/YouTube%20Insight%20-%20Community%20-%20shanedk%20-%20ratings%20per%20view.png

But most importantly, the DROP in average ratings down to 1: http://www.shanekillian.org/files/YouTube%20Insight%20-%20Community%20-%20shanedk%20-%20avg%20rating.png

This comes right on the heels of a couple of moon hoaxtards (or the same one with multiple accounts) posting insults on my channel as well as in videos. Are they now taking the same tactics as creationists?

Anyway, this looks very much like a general votebot. All of my videos are being affected. The most-viewed (and rated) videos, like my entry in the Pwnage Olympics, haven't dropped much, while the least-viewed ones, like my promo for Bogosity.TV, have suffered the most (it's down to 2 stars! I've NEVER had a 2-star video!).

Many 5-star videos have gone down to 4 stars, like all of the ones in my series, How Evolution Is Scientific (playlist: http://www.youtube.com/view_play_list?p=7C90EE51FA96E8CE&playnext=1&playnext_from=PL ). The same is true of other videos, including both political videos and scientific (and anti-creationism) videos.

Before yesterday, almost ALL of my videos were 5-star videos. Now, NONE of them are. NOT A SINGLE ONE.

Sounds like it might be stalkervision.
As insult and comment crazy as he is.

In the meantime, what can we do to help, aside from going through your videos and rating them 5 stars?

[MrBogosity]

Spread the word to whomever you can.

I think we should votebot all Shane's videos 5 stars
that would sure solve the problem

[MrBogosity]

The votebot is STILL RUNNING!!! I had another 5,958 1-star votes from the vote-bot on 6/3, but only 4,746 counter-votes from users! Please spread the word!

but seriously though

does anyone know a program that could votebot?
because I think votebotting shane's vids 5 stars will help a lot

I saw that shane. However, I got DMCA'd by Brett Keane so I have been a little busy myself.

I don't think so at the moment. I filed my counter notice as soon as I got hit. So now I have to wait on youtube. Thanks though. I will try to  rate some of your videos later.
