Looks like a real user who imported his or her rankings then stopped using the site. Some people may just import their IMDB ratings once every few months, rather than update both criticker and imdb after they watch a movie.

Impossible to know for sure, but other than the 8k ratings I don't see any major hints of it being an aggregate user or bot. If I survive to 70 years old I'll probably have 8k ratings.

Yeah, you're right. This is another bot of some kind, possibly abandoned. Thanks to both of you, and nice work!

Lol, good point. :D

If people just aggregate ratings of one person (like a critic in specific) I dont have a problem (like that roger ebert account). The problem for me is aggregating the average of ratings of different people in the same account.

I suspect mubi is an aggregate, just like mubivotes (which is already in the list). Ratings are identical for films that both accounts have ranked (at least the few that I checked), and both accounts' rating systems go up to 47 (probably 4.7 out of five stars, which is what the Mubi streaming site uses for ratings).

I appreciate having this list!

Thank you quartier and trippingly.

Also, I found another aggregate user - Rotten Users - abandoned, but used to collect the rotten tomatoes audience score.

The opening post will have the current list from now on. Easier to maintain it there than reposting it.

I've added all the ones listed above: crititv, RT_Critics, and mubi

Someone knows if imdbna is aggregating from IMDb or not?
