Who is (Phiros) Rod Johnson

Who is (Phiros) Rod Johnson and why does he hate PG on BGG so much?

[Hugmenot]

Just a guy on a crusade who gives "1" to games that rated a "10" by their designer. He's done it 300 times. I doubt he has ever played any of the 300 games or a real wargame simulating a real conflict by looking at his list.

You can always report him if you want.

As I wrote before, I think the BGG ratings are crap and I learned to read specific reviews and comments before purchasing.

[JayTownsend]

Yeah, I never even ranked my own supplement or game but he went after one of them anyway!

Hey Rod came clean!

Rod:

I haven't played the game and I'm sorry I gave your game a 1. I had like 400 1 ratings that I didn't realize I had given out until I noticed the big pile of messages in my inbox. I must have been drinking when I did that, cause its not something I'd do normally and I don't remember doing it. I've went through and removed them all and issued apologies to the designers who messaged me.

Me:

Thanks Rod, I Appreciate it! I want to keep designing games.

So I have to give him credit for that!
