Q: I'm being rated by other columnists but the number of times i'm rated and my average rating isn't going up it's been stuck at the same thing for a while now is there something wrong?

Why is this happening? How can i fix it?
Hi there,

Please read this section of the FAQ and pay special attention to the one that says:

"I really want to see my rating calculated right now."

http://www.advicenators.com/faq.php?t=6

... if you see the math there and it still doesn't add up, please let me know.

We get this question a lot, hence the reason for the FAQ entry, so don't feel bad.

You will have a 5 roll off your current ratings and the 2 that is bringing you down will still be there. So you get rated with another 5 and nothing changes. That is simply because the average, as calculated, is still the same.

Thank you.

Thank you(:

This advice column is for suggestions, comments, or error reporting about advicenators. If you'd like to suggest a new category, ask me a question. If you'd like to whine, bitch, or complain about advicenators, you may whine, bitch, or complain to me.

Three rules though:
1) Do not ask me for life advice. We have several thousand other members that do that.

2) Do not ask for help, or ask how to do something, or ask about
how something on the site works, unless you've read every word of our help pages and you're sure it's not addressed there.

3) Do not ask me to ban someone or investigate abuse. We have an entire abuse system set up for that.

If you disobey one of these rules, I'll delete your question.

Some guidelines about suggestions:
If you offer a suggestion that I find interesting, I might just ignore your question so it stays in my inbox as a reminder of something to do. Don't be upset that I don't answer you, and don't delete your questions (because then I'll forget!)

If you have three suggestions, please ask three separate questions, that way I can address each one individually. It's a real pain when people ask one question with like twenty different topics in it; I can't keep them straight.
