Everyone likes comments, so it's nice that he takes the time to comment on every skin. Must take a while. Hope he downloads them all before he comments. That would take a really long time.

But I specially like the way he comments "Great job. Super skin" and then slaps a '6' rating on it. Kind of cancells the comment given
Judging by all of his screen shots, I'll say he downloads everything.

I'm as annoyed as anyone. Slapping a "nice" or "super" on everything isn't terribly useful, or truthful in some cases. As for ratings, Apoc, how can you know what ratings he gives? Maybe you got 5 ratings and only one comment. Maybe he gave you an 8 and someone else gave you a 4. Just theorizing.

I think (and this is only a guess) that someone like Apoc gets a generic rating when he uploads something, and as soon as someone puts a real rating on it, that overides the first. So our friend is the first (definitely) to see, comment, and rate. 1st comment, 1st rating within seconds of each other on every skin.
...just my guess

That's correct, Sleeping Dragon. If you're sure only one person has rated your skin, and you have auto-approval, their rating would be your overall rating. But you have to be sure only one person has rated it.

Indeed is just as SD mentioned Mike. I've been taking notices on my latest uploads as they start with a default '6' rating and no rating amount and on the latest ones that I've watch, they get an amount of 1 rating along with the '6' score and the nice 'Super' comment. and its also the 1st score, comment and download on the ones I've noticed, and not just mines as I've watch other designs from other authors with the same results.
It's just a matter of putting 2 + 2 together
No biggie tho'. It's just a bit controversial to give such high comments and then revert with an average score.

Ah, but that's the world we live in: 3 faced and 5 hearted. Many people try to rise above it ... give an honest days work, rate honestly, speak honestly and so on. But I believe that is the exception and not the rule.
Again, just my opinion.
