question for everybody that asks questions on advicenators: How come you dont rate somebody after they answer your questions? it doesnt take a lot of effort and its a quick little thank you for their response. It helps the advice giver to understand how well they answer certain questions. I think everybody should rate out of pure politeness...Just curious as to why most people dont..??
Mercy_x_Me answered Tuesday August 10 2004, 10:56 am: Some people are too lazy or just never get around to it. The biggest reason is because they really dont think the answer is helpful but the person is nice so they dont want to give them a 1 or a 2. Most people are actually nice for doing this b/c this way they wont hurt a nice persons feelings. I for one always rate and like to rate but we're here on advicenators to help people... sure rating is nice and helpful, but we are not on this website to be RATED. Helping people out is 10x more important than being rated and a good columnist will hope for the best of the people with troubles and never ask or think 1nce of rating.
Hope i helped you out.. i totally understand what your saying, you made such IMPORTANT points... and maybe you'll make a difference here on advicenators :-D...
