Yea, this has been going on for a while (at least a year and a half). On my analytics page I can see someone comes in on a single day and gives one or two "dislikes" to just about all of my videos and the pattern repeats every few weeks or so. I guess there is some sad individual out there who gets some satisfaction in a small, meaningless, act of petty sabotage in retribution for some perceived slight. It is mildly annoying, but nothing I have lost any sleep over in the year or so I've been aware of it. I've got better things to do than worry about the self esteem issues of strangers.

I could turn off the ratings on all my videos, but I haven't felt it wasn't worth the effort. If people would like to give my videos the "thumbs up" whenever you can, I would be honored. A small sign of your support would mean a lot more to me than the actions of any poor soul with enough time on their hands to devote to systematically "thumbs downing" them.

I do hope that whoever is doing gets enough satisfaction out of the effort to make it worth it to them. I suppose that for a small mind this action could give a lot of satisfaction.

Thanks for your attention. I would welcome people adding their up vote to offset this guy. There would be a certain justice if my videos got a lot of up votes due to the negative actions of one person.
