It never ceases to amaze me, the strange. I just had to write about it because it tickled me quite a lot. As soon as I got the first message I thought, here we go!
It is after all just a stupid number....
I find that people here have more issues with the rating system than any other thing here!

HMMM ... I see you rated me a 5 and I rated you a 10.
How nice of you.
No problem, If it works for you then it works for me.

Ummmm Sir
“How nice of you”
It always fascinates me with the type of response I receive when someone upgrades and goes premium.
As I see you have visited my profile and I presume that you have read, then you will know why you were rated what you were rated. It's as simple as.....
Your name ******** is very good and I remember the music as being also very good. I would of rated you less if the music had been pants. However you have no information about you! Unless of course you consider yourself to actually be ********.
No journal and no portfolio.....
"The artist is nothing without the gift, but the gift is nothing without work...."
If you had these it would have been a very much higher rate. If you choose to add more then please let me know as I enjoy reading about people and looking at where they live and what they enjoy.
You will also be aware that if I rate you any lower than a nine your rate will drop further....please understand I do not want this to happen any more than you do.
The rules of the Rave are using the number from 1-10, how we use these numbers is up to us. If you need any help with your profile then there are many people here who can offer you help.
Thank you for your rate

How lovely,
No journal and no portfolio..... NO WHERE in the rules of membership does it state you must have these items you mentioned.
Those items are by choice!!
I can live with your rating. I didn't check your profile as I clecked military recruits rack's and footlocker's for 10 years in the US Army. I just simply showed respect and gave a 10 to a fellow member of a site in which we have something in common with. Artist and Art? Ever really been to a Artist show, auction, or gallery??? Ever heard of the famous "UNKNOWN" Artist? There have been plenty in the past, present, and future. My profile is just that.
No need to write me back as I will not disturb you anymore.
I accept your rating as you gladly accepted mine.
Enjoy!

Lol, you are a funny bloke......I'm not being a tosser over this I'm attempting to explain this in the nicest way possible.
No need to write me back as I will not disturb you anymore....(so you sent your message three times!!)
Smiles This has really niggled you hasn't it?
First of all It's my choice as it is yours.....Please read what I write and don't read what you want to read...I hope that you can understand this comment!
That's it, take a deep breath, breath in and digest.
It's my choice that I rate by what someone puts on there profile...it's my choice if I rate it higher if they have a journal or a portfolio.
I never stated that it was in the rules...where did I state that in my message please? I only stated that the rules are, we can use the numbers from 1-10 when we rate! I then mentioned that I rate higher if the person has a port and a journal...
I thank you for showing me respect by rating me a ten without reading my profile, however if you had read it then you may of decided to give me no rate or a lower one...you can change it to a five or what ever if you choose. I wont down rate you from your five to a one.
We don't know each other at the moment and we have nothing in common apart from we are on the same site. That being said I'm slowly learning about you from your messages and choice of words, also by how you perceive written information.
As for art, I know a lot about it and I'm a artist of sorts...I'm a piss artist on a Saturday night...lol...Seriously I do like art and I'm pleased for you that your profile in your mind is a piece of art, I guess you now know that in my eyes it wasn't.
Which leads me to the past, present and future...we've done the past, were on the present...and lets hope we both can get something from the future.
Now would be a good time for you to reflect on my words if you choose, because that's correct. We all have a choice in what we say and do, don't we.

If my message was sent 3 times it must have been a site server error because I sure did not send it 3 times on purpose.
As I said before no need to discuss this any futher.
I will not be visiting your profile anymore or commenting on any of your art on the site.
No, I will not go and change my 10 I left you ( that is childish and immature ).
I rated you a 10 and stand by it.
You have a nice day.

Ok *********, Smiles of course you consciously didn't send it three times on purpose.
As you have said before, 'No need for you to discuss this further,' as for me...well, I like to write.
(I will not be visiting your profile anymore or commenting on any of your art on the site.)
Sorry what was that I read about being childish and immature.....lol
Oh one more thing, on a positive note, you appear to be honorable
Good day to you Sir
On 10:34:38 Apr 28 2009 ********* wrote
I am very honorable, that is why I have chosen not to visit or rate your profile anymore.
Why would I ? I already rated you a 10 remember?
You may keep writing me back (to get the last word) if you must that is fine by me.
Good luck in life and your success on the site.
Well that's it so far folks. this is word for word as messaged...
Am I being a twat over this? Should I just give him a ten anyway in case this causes drama? I THINK THAT IT ALREADY HAS!! Do you think that my response was a little harsh? What would you do?
