I've noticed that there are a lot of anime that are scheduled to air later this year, which have age ratings and sometimes genres or themes entered with a source of "watching it". I'm thinking this person is probably guessing at age ratings based on previews, but since they are lying about having seen anime that haven't even been released, I'm worried that they could just be totally making up what they are entering. I think this person should at least be told to stop doing this, and possibly have all the information he/she has added removed if it looks like it isn't accurate.
Here are a bunch of examples of anime that haven't aired yet with the age rating entered with a source of "watching it" (not an exhaustive list): anime#15764 anime#15853 anime#15721 anime#15763 anime#15800 anime#15801 anime#15828 anime#15773 anime#15803 anime#15790 anime#15807 anime#15797 anime#15701 |

That specific user had been warned multiple times and showed no improvement. His submission privilege has been revoked couple days before your post.

This is lifting a burden off of me. He has been copying summaries from my articles for a while, and I've had to go around the entire site marking error reports for quite a time now...
Thanks so much for stopping him, dormcat! I really appreciate it. |

Not to necropost (and also because I don't want to post a thread that is possibly redundant), but is this the same individual that had been preliminarily denoting the OC rating on anime-yet-to-air, going only by their PVs? I've seen it done with Ping Pong (anime#15852), Nanana's Buried Treasure (anime#15759), and I thought at least another, but unlike the "watching it" source note, they have a "watching the PV" note (it's slightly different, which is why I'm unsure of the relation).
A PV may give you a head's up on what to expect, but they are rarely a true indicator on will actually be shown (From the New World, BLOOD-C, Moyashimon, Code Geass, Gundam SEED, Royal Space Force, Muromi-san, Madoka Magica, to name a few). The user gave "Mild" ratings to the two series above based solely on a few minutes of footage, but I could've done the same with a SEED, Royal Space Force, or Muromi-san and be totally wrong. Ping Pong director's Maasaki Yuusa's work alone would lead me to not pin that anime with that rating automatically. It's a little grating to see this happen, as it feels like one of those "first to the line" sort of actions and can be misleading. |
