Rating system

I'm putting this in here for a variety of reasons, none of which the few of you who read this actually want to know.

The bottom line is, we have a rating system that has proven fun and effective in other arenas and is sorely underused here.

In almost all areas that you can post something - forum, blog, pictures, and so on - there are five stars.  You can click on them an comment on what you did or did not like about that person's contribution.

It's a different way to communicate, and if it were used, it could become a bench mark of activity on the site.

So live a little.  Try it out.  Seek out your favorite poster and give them a few points and a snarky comment.

I'm attaching a poll just for fun.  You can leave more than one answer, and your answer is anonymous. 


 

Trying to get without first giving is as fruitless as trying to reap without having first sown.


It does not do to leap a 20 ft chasm in two ten foot jumps.

I think it is fun, but I am guilty of reading something and then failing to rate. My goal will be rate everything I read.

Rating is great, but be sure to read the comments left by others when they rate you.  It's a great source of feedback.

Thanks for posting here!  I felt like I was hogging the thread.

I really think that rating in the past has been very irregular.  I think that everybody has to make it a point to use the rating system in order for it to be useful.  Or, perhaps, there should be a certain body of "raters" appointed by the president or the board.  I have used the system in the past, but I think that very few members have used it consistently. In my opinion, it could be a valuable tool as an incentive to be involved, if it is used properly.
