Just check the bottom of the list. Most of mine are there.

Haitus Kaiyote was rated that low? You guys have terrible taste.

I don't actually think it's that it was rated low, I think it was more that hardly anyone voted for it. I'll have to check back and see how many but I know it was only a mere handful of the members who were here at the time.

OH, in terms of actual Hate votes, it seems not to happen very often. People dislike but don't hate. The only two albums with high Hate quotients are

OLD - Old Lady Drivers with 5 (that was before the polls came in, so based on ratings)
and
MSI - Frankenstein Girls Will Seem Strangely Sexy with 6 (again, prior to the poll option being added).
