What to do...?

I don't think I'm being votebotted, because there aren't enough votes for that on my vids.. however, during the last day or so, some of my vids have gone from 5 stars, to about 3-4 stars.

I think someone is voting my vids down because they don't like me, rather than not liking each seperate video.
Some of these videos are about aspergers syndrome, and are not offensive at all, they're just educational.

Any ideas for what to do about it?

Have you checked out the stats?

If you see a sudden spike of 1-stars on your vids during a short amount of time, it's pretty certain that you've been botted.

Well, I have videos with at least 4 stars, but I think its people giving their honest rating. I wouldn't worry about it just yet, until it becomes constant, and by the hundreds.

I don't know where I can see the stats for rating.. I can find views, and by country and stuff, but I can't find ratings...

I have looked into your vids and they don't seem to be very affected, 4, 4.5 is completly normal. I bet the issue started when you pissed Jonas fans, I really can't see anything else that could be offensive, except for the Nykytyne got suspended video but that video doesn't seem to be affected, so I guess that wasn't it.
There is noting else you can do except to ask people to rate your videos what they think it's fair. I wouldn't worrie tough, its probably 1 guy or 2 and they will be diluded fast, there is absolutly nothing to worrie about.

I can't find ratings rate either, but then again the characteristics of the stats mutates acordingly to the popularity, so it either you don't have enough rattings to have rattings stats or YT removed that altogheter.

I'm not entirely sure how to find it, either. ;)

But I remember TF making a vid about this some time back when the votebotting was really big. Maybe you can find that vid?

(If not, then I can try later today when I'm back from work.)

It tells you exactly how to find out if it is a votebot attack. It is possible that Denmark's version of Youtube does not yet have that option in insight yet, in which case you should download TubeGuardian.

Thank you, I've figured it out :)

There doesn't seem to be that big of a problem just yet, but we'll see how it goes.


Thanks, all of you :)
