Yes! Yes, exactly. Although I do enjoy getting high ratings, there is one person who rated me a 1, even though, in my opinion, it was excellent advice! Lol. Other than that, I have gotten all 4s and 5s. But I don't think it matters. Helping people does, though. ^.^

I've stated time and time again that ratings should not matter to people. But some people want to make this into a game, or think that getting ratings will make them a moderator here and that gives them POWER! And with that power must come something really cool...<br>
<br>
...except they're wrong.<br>

The reason we have ratings in place was because this site was going down-hill very fast. We needed some system to help us fix it. Ratings was the most logical answer - it, in theory, enables the users of the site to award those who give good advice and penalize those who offer crap for advice. We also have a way to moderate the questions themselves, so that really stupid things eventually vanish, and the better questions remain.<br>
<br>
It doesn't help that people ask the same thing over and over again. People need to learn to use the damned search feature: [Link](Mouse over link to see full location) to find out if someone has already asked a similar question - because you know what? The advice given will be exactly the same. But we get the same damned "does he love me?" "how do I know if he likes me?" "I think I have scabies" crap over and over again... but I digress...<br>

The ratings SHOULD not matter... this much is true. If people were here to actually answer questions as best they can, it wouldn't even be needed. But there are a lot of assholes and stupid people out there who like to either abuse the system or treat it like a game. So, the ratings aren't going away, and we can use it as a tool of sorts. But beyond that, for the average user of this site, you shouldn't even pay attention to them.

i think your absolutly right! everyone has diffrent opinions and if they dont like urs than who cares, your being honest!

hm.. i dont really care either... i mean advice is an opinion.. you can either take it or not right? and it's not our place to judge if your opinion is incorrect so i don't get mad over rating stuff.. if you think i'm good at advice.. then yey.. if not uh well hope you get better advice from someone else =]!

I think it kinda of gives u a good idea of wat the majority of ppl think of ur advie and it could help u improve it if most of htem dont like ur advaice but on the other hand i agree with wat u say about giving advice and thknking that wat u sed is good.

It depends, If I thought I gave the best advice I could possibily give then I would want to see that person rate me. Other than that,I dont really care if someone doesnt rate me:D

i dont think it matters what ppl rate you bc you gave all the advice you could think of. -kayla

f*ck ratings, i dont care if i get 1's for everything
]
ok i agree really because i think this website is to get and give advice not to get someone down for not giving the best advice i personaly feel that rateing is stupid but if someone feels that giving a rate is to show they appreceate the advice then it's not so bad but if your gonna put someone down with a rate thats plain stupid.But wut ur say i completely agree.
