Then when someone in a "click" or team posts after a thread has been up they get about 5 to 10 comments right away, why? When someone posts a bump or a why no comment in their thread they seem to get punished by a bunch of assholeish comments with no real pointers or advice on what or how to fix the issue in their tags.

Also when someone posts in the rate my signature thread, most of everyone gives really bad ratings, unless..., you in a team or in a "click" If you rate someone in that thread arent you suppose to give reason why you gave that rating, and not be an asshole about it by just giving a really low rating and give no reasons AT ALL! This site is a good site, minus the usual pricks that troll the threads.

Please someone fill me in... why the bias attitudes?
I'm gonna explain this in detail so bare with me...

People post on what interest them... you can't help that. I tend to post more on Anime stuff or technical things, however if I see a rapper, I'll ignore it, even if it's amazing mostly because I don't like rap. That is just common interest which is determined by the individual.

Another things about comments is that they work on a respect basis. If you comment others and give them good feedback, and I mean more then, "Great lighting mate", they will take notice and remember your comment. If you keep giving positive and detailed feedback they may be inclined to comment about your art piece. For me a great example would be a good friend of mine who's on deviantART. Both her and I continually give each other feedback and if she needs any help she knows that I'll provide some ideas, and vice-versa. This is only because we continually offered each other help.
Respect works both ways.

The Rate my sig thread will always be bias towards people. I got a 4 or something for my AirGear sig because the person below me thought it was boring. What they didn't know was that I coloured and redrew half the image with my tablet. The reason why it has the simple look is because I wanted to look simple and plain. It would be like me telling Pet to add textures and light effects to his Vectors. Some things are not meant to go together and art is viewed both personally and expressively.

As well as this, you are always gonna get the usual arsehole that will spam crap. I'm sorry we can't control that as much as possible, we can't be everywhere at once but it's also up to you members to "Report" crappy posts by clicking this image at the top right of the post:
I can tell you straight away that we don't receive many report notifications. We do receive the occasional one, but if it's as bad as what you are suggesting, then we can't tell if it's happening if no one tells us.

If you have any problems you can always PM me. I get E-mail notifications on my phone 24/7 so if I hear something, I can address it as soon as I get a chance. The other thing is if you want a comment on an art piece or sig, PM me. I like to comment on people's works, but I tend to do more if I'm asked to view a certain piece.
