Title: Rating Stars!?
Post by: -wrongway- on December 02, 2001, 09:28:00 AM
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..

I EAT BABY DOLPHINS AND DROP THE CARCASS BY THE CREEK, THEN I GO TO MY SECRET UNDERGROUND NAZI 666 SHRINE TO WORSHIP LUCIFER AND WISH DEATH TO ALL WHO DISAGREE WITH ME, AND SOME WHO AGREE.
I THEN PROCEED TO SHOOT BALD EAGLES WITH A HIGH POWERED RIFLE WHILE I DRINK BEER AND DROP ALL THE CANS IN YOSEMITE NATIONAL PARK. I DROP ALL MY TRASH BY THE CLEAR TROPICAL ATLANTIC OCEAN HOPING SOME ENDANGERED WHALES WILL SWALLOW THE PLASTIC BAGS AND DIE.
I KIDNAP BABIES AND RAISE THEM WITHOUT KNOWLEGE OF LANGUAGE OR SOCIAL SKILLS, AND HAVE MY SWEATSHOP WHERE THEY WORK MAKING EXTRAVAGANT CLOTHES WICH I WEAR FOR THE REPUBLICAN CONVENTIONS, WHERE I GET DRUNK AND TRY TO HIT ON THE PRESIDENT'S WIFE.

WHEN THE DAY IS OVER, I GO HOME, PUT WWF WRESTLING ON MY TV, LISTEN TO kOrN AND LIMP BISKIT AT THE HIGHEST POSSIBLE VOLUME, AND LOG INTO THE AH BBS AND MAKE LONG POSTS IN CAPS WICH ARE VERY IRRITATING.

The more stars you have the more anal you are.
I would aim at the number of stars I have. Then you'll know for sure you're appreciated around here.
Take Animal for example. As you can tell he is one of the most esteemed members of this message board, which is obviously merited through his fabulous posts. He currently has two stars and is working his way up to 1. I have one star because I am have earned the equivalent of a generals rank. Good luck on earning your one star my friend. The road is long and windy, but with perseverence you'll get there.  ;)

hehe....this guy is well on his way to the top of my "People who I really want to punch in the face...HARD" list.

Also:

Here I was thinking that I'm all cool having a five star rating and after reading this post it turns out I'm a dweeb....Sigh..

I'll gladly write nasty things about French people if that will help lower my rating!

I am very impressed Animal. If only you had noted you wrote bad checks. 56 votes is still pretty good.
