How do you get your rating up? It seems like no one rates people anymore!

..by answering more questions and perhaps adding a little reminder at the end of your answer, for the person to give a rating.

I have to point out the irony here: You asked this question, and have read the answers, but didn't rate anybody!

If you ask questions often, but don't take the time to rate, you are part of the exact problem you are asking about.

I agree more rating would be nice... I get rated about once for every five or six questions I answer, and I get an actual comment with those ratings every few times. Like other columnists have said, you can't force rates; you all you can do is just keep slugging away and doing your best.

(Well, you could also rate the people who answer your questions too. That would increase the number of people on this site using the ratings!)

EDIT in response to feedback:
Dude, you just gave me the biggest laugh of my day and the perfect argument to never take ratngs the least bit seriously! But way to go on rating the answers. Did you know you could look back through your question history and rate all past answers too? There is no time limit on applying ratings to all the advice you've received.

Really, there's no way to force more ratings. People will rate if they appreciate the time and effort that you've put into their answer.

My suggestion is to ignore the number. The best advice is given when you're thinking about what the person NEEDS to hear, as opposed to what they WANT to hear. That's why my rating is never a 5!

Keep on truckin'! Remember, for every person who doesn't rate, there's a person who wishes they could rate a million times :D

Ratings don't really matter anymore, as the majority of internet users are getting younger and younger, and love to spam these types of things. The only way to raise your ratings, is to keep on giving advice. And good ones to.

You get your ratings up by answering questions and
other columnists rate your answer either 1 through 5
1 being the worst & 5 being the best it's your feed back the more questions you answer the more you'll get rated most likely(:
