Hello!

I recently checked my plugins' ratings:

08/09/11 script 677/279/10776: Manpageview.vim
08/31/11 script -133/1094/10866: Manpageview.vim

This seems like an odd thing -- is this preparation for a general
bombing of plugins' ratings?
I should explain this a bit more. The rating for Manpageview on August
9, 2011 was 677, with 279 people having rated it, and 10776 having
downloaded it.
On August 31, 2011, the rating was -133, 1094 people having rated it,
and 10866 having downloaded it.

It is odd that Manpageview received -810 in karma when there were only
90 additional downloaders over that time period. Did irc have a
anti-Chip attack? Is someone testing a bot to destroy multiple plugins'
ratings?

I wonder how SourceForge allocates memory for these numbers. It sounds like overflow into the sign bit, except that the next bit above 677 is 1024 (2^10) which is not at a byte or word boundary...

Only 90 new downloads but as many as 815 new ratings is also a bit weird to say the least. And almost all of those negative? Some troll must hate Manpageview (and/or you) quite a bit to have gone to the trouble of logging in 810 times to give a negative rating.

Best regards,
Tony.
