Im new here and I have noticed the "Rating" stars by everyones name. New guys start out with 5 stars? I guess if you start getting stars removed, and you get down to one or two, its time to get the hint and move on right?..hehehehe

I am not sure how the stars work, but I have found that the first rating has more weight then the rest.

Examples:

If someone has a rating of one star and one rater, and I give them a rating of 5 stars.  There rating will still be one star, with 2 raters.

If someone has no rating, and I rate them 5 stars, they will have a rating of 5 stars with one rater, and their rating stays high.

I have never rated anyone less than 5 stars but it looks to me like the first rating has a lot of weight.

Those ratings you are seeing is how you rated others... not how they rated you.

Welcome to AH.
It takes the wrath of many who will hate your opinions to get the coveted one star rating.
I am still on my way there, but not quite yet.. soon enough..
