SJ. Posted December 5, 2012 Share Posted December 5, 2012 I just clicked on your profile and there are five stars I can click, maybe we can rate each other? Popularity contest? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

LaxMom Posted December 5, 2012 Share Posted December 5, 2012 I dunno, but I apparently have no warning points. I'm clearly off my game. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
SJ. Posted December 5, 2012 Share Posted December 5, 2012 LOL. I just thought I was missing out on something. Honestly, I've never seen anyone rated but this one member and it's a low rating. Odd. Obviously that member is losing the popularity contest!~ :tongue_smilie: :auto: Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Parrothead Posted December 5, 2012 Share Posted December 5, 2012 Can one see one's own stars? I never noticed. Off to check it out. Oh, man! I have 5 stars. Who did that? I'm going to go around and give everyone 5 stars. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

DawnM Posted December 5, 2012 Share Posted December 5, 2012 No idea! I have no stars. I apparently don't rate. Or does that mean I am not popular? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
mommymilkies Posted December 5, 2012 Share Posted December 5, 2012 Oh great. Just what I need. A popularity contest. Well, at least I have a long history in being a loser, so I won't be disappointed! Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
thescrappyhomeschooler Posted December 5, 2012 Share Posted December 5, 2012 No idea! I have no stars. I apparently don't rate. Or does that mean I am not popular? I don't have any stars, either. I guess we lose. :laugh: Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Mergath Posted December 6, 2012 Share Posted December 6, 2012 Oh great. Just what I need. A popularity contest. Well, at least I have a long history in being a loser, so I won't be disappointed! :iagree: Being able to rate topics was bad enough, but being able to rate people? Ugh. Like internet-based interactions aren't shallow enough as it is. ETA: And I mean that I agree with not liking the rating system, not that you're a loser. Because you're not. ;) Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Parrothead Posted December 6, 2012 Share Posted December 6, 2012 If everyone would take a moment and give their neighbors on both sides 5 stars then shortly we will all have 5 and there won't be any worries. :laugh: Everyone should be assigned a day to rate all the newbies that sign up.

SJ. Posted December 6, 2012 Share Posted December 6, 2012 The way I see it no stars is better than one star. With one star someone purposely clicked your profile and chose to give you one star. Who does that? Off to bless someone with five stars, cause I can. :ph34r: Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Chelle in MO Posted December 6, 2012 Share Posted December 6, 2012 Well, I have 5 pretty grey stars. I guess that is the equivalent of none. :toetap05: The good news is that I have an "Excellent" rating of 118!

Plink Posted December 6, 2012 Share Posted December 6, 2012 Oh no! I accidentally clicked on the stars (touchscreen, grrr...) and couldn't figure out how to unclick, so I left that poor boardie with a 1 star rating. I didn't know they were popularity points. Sorry to whoever I insulted. - Off to go give stars to random people to attone for my sins. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Just Kate Posted December 6, 2012 Share Posted December 6, 2012 Hmmm...just looked at my profile and found that I have no stars and no friends. Talking myself out of taking this personally. :scared: ETA: I did just notice for the first time that you can rate threads by giving them stars. I gave this thread 5 stars. :D As of right now, it has 6 votes. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
extendedforecast Posted December 6, 2012 Share Posted December 6, 2012 I don't have any stars either. Does anyone know what the number in green on the right side of the profile is for? It has a number and says excellent. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Jean in Newcastle Posted December 6, 2012 Share Posted December 6, 2012 My two cents is that none of it matters. All it means is that someone might have been bored one day and decided to rate a member or a thread. As far as the green bar and numbers, my understanding is that it is partly from the old rep system (which is why some old people have higher numbers ) and partly from posts that are "liked" on the forum. Again - no real meaning. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I thought it had something to do with buyer/seller feedback, but I went from a "10" at the changeover to a "12" and I have only made some posts.
