Rating is fucked. Period.
So many different sets of rules for so many different personalities. Oh..and let's not forget the premium members!
I rated a premium member profile a 6 (60% C??) even though it probably should have been rated lower. It's a 13 month old membership and still has under construction for the body of it, no pictures...nothing. So I get rated back the same. Another premium member who is a level 17 had nothing but a few pics of herself. I rated a 5 and stated that it would be great to hear something about her and I would happily rerate. I got rated a 5 back with basically..don't bother.
Some people rate everyone a 10. Whether it's to get a 10 back or what, I don't know. I'd give my own profile an 8 or a 9. I did work on it. I do make minor updates to it. There is pictures and words and not a pile of protection stamps and quizzes. Hmmmm....
I don't set out to rate anyone low. It just happens...if their profile isn't a 10. So should I just rate everyone a 10?? Or perhaps just the preemies?? laugh. Not. Rate as you will. I don't really care about my rating per se. I find it rather amusing that people can't actually TAKE constructive (not destructive) criticism. Say SOMETHING...ANYTHING except "Ask me". Hell! Automatic 1 if that's all you have to say about yourself. Not even saying that?? Well..how do I rate how you portrayed yourself?? You think nothing about you?? OK. How can I think you're a 10???
Even if the profile is some longwinded insane rant about something...or a roleplaying character...or something. Just give me something to work with here, people.
End of rant.

how about the snobbish premmies who downrate for not rating them?
Rate how you feel is suppose to be the key. yet some take seriuos offense if it is low. good luck
Why would they downrate you for NOT rating them?? That didn't affect them one iota. Don't rate me at all. I could care less. Of course, I could also care less if I'm rated a 1. The issue becomes why do some people believe they're an automatic 10 with NOTHING in their profile???? And conversely, why do some people RATE people an automatic 10 regardless if there's anything in their profile???
I don't see why people care what they are rated anyways, it's just the damn internet. Lol.
*looks all innocent*...luvs u ky...lol

I figure if they arent lagging me down with their profile, its all good. But seriously, the ones that bug me are the ones who give the impression of stomping around yelling how bad ass they are, making threats and accusing people of being stupid and conducting revenge ratings. Yet these are the ones who rated me first, and rated me a 1.
I rate them a 10 so I never have to see their profile again.
;)
*chuckling*
oh, the more I read, the more I can see why you like my stamps...lol
Go with your brains, sugar. If you see something you like, rate it what you want, leave a personal comment as to why you like it, and move on. I do.
If it is seriously lacking in content, intelligence, or anything elese, rate it accordingly. Trust me, you will get a shit more respect if you rate true, than if you "10" and run.
But then again, you have read my rants- you know...

Most of my coven is made up of such profiles - feel free to rate them what you wish

I agree with you and do the same. Societies are meant for interaction not keeping dead or suspended profiles just to level up your Coven/house. I think its BS.....
