    New domain rated red.

    I registered amusinggames.net a few days ago and have only recently found out it was rated red, could anyone help me rate it up to green so I don't lose visitors?

    :(

    Re: New domain

    Send a support request and we'll take a look. Usually, if the domain really is newly registered, no longer hosts the same content as it did before, and the ratings or comments clearly no longer apply to it, we'll make a note of this to the scorecard and reset the domain's reputation to unknown.

    looks green to me

    Odd, one would think the site would be unrated; not having enough activity to display "colors" yet since it's registration was created on 20 SEP 2009

    But there are no blacklist references, checking mxtoolbox and hpHosts

    Site appears clean, has a Privacy Policy
    Games not working for me, standard or full screen

    Also got a few errors, here's one:

    A QUERY FAILED: UPDATE `AMCMS_ads` SET `status`='exhausted' WHERE `primkey`=;

    I'm getting suspicions that

    I'm getting suspicions that there are bots using WOT. I created a free redirecting domain on a subdomain that had no rating, and rated it. By the next day, there had been enough rates to get it a colour.

      Re: I'm getting suspicions that

      The system is pretty resistant to bots, so that's not the reason. There's no minimum number of ratings that a previously unknown site needs to have before it gets a reputation. Instead, there's a minimum level of confidence in the reputation. One rating from a trusted user can be enough, while at the same time any number of untrusted users can rate a site and it still won't get a reputation. In other words, the rating system is meritocratic.

      Gold level member

      You're a gold level member, so your rating weighs heavily on the site, unlike before when you were in lesser ranks. There arent any bots.

        Re: User levels

        Actually, the user level is based on the activity score, which has nothing to do with how much weight your ratings have. As the name implies, the activity score only measures activity, not trust. There's sometimes correlation between the two, but not always.
