Deviant 1621097410546.png A stylized rendering of the dirty, nasty teeth of TJ Church, whose vice of choice was writing erotic fiction.Donators-only, and particularly coveted (for giving, that is). Denotes the receiver as "deviant" in some way, or used to express disgust, usually in regards to some sort of sexual preference, but can be used in jest such as for expressing a minor disagreement or ironically for commonly-held or mundane opinions. Anyone who uses Kiwifarms' light mode should be awarded this rating upon being exposed.-1
Disagree:disagree:An "X" used to show disapproval.When a user disagrees with a sentiment or statement, or just sometimes ironically.0
Dislike:dislike:A thumbs-down icon used in many websites.Possibly the least-used rating outside of boards with restricted ratings. Used to show dislike of a post, but has such a generalized meaning that most users will opt to use other ratings instead. Getting somebody to use this is honestly an achievement in of itself, and it's probably only even included to serve opposite of the "Like" rating.0
Dumb 1765474619394.png A trashcan, implying the user's opinion or post should be discarded.Often only to express extreme negativity compared to other ratings, and is usually given to particularly bad posts, whether due to content, quality, or relevance.

Feels:feels:A heart. A stylized one, not the real kind.A reference to the "feels" meme, which is used to describe strong emotion such as happiness, sadness, or calmness. In general, this is used for posts which are sentimental, endearing, or simply expresses a feeling the user relates to. The easiest way to entice others to give this rating is to post pictures of cute animals.+1
Horrifying 1621099076557.png A piercing, namely the perineum piercing owned by Chris Chan he deemed as the "un-clit," which his poor hygiene caused his body to reject.Originally donators-only. Given to posts which are, as the name implies, "horrifying." Usually these are posts which relay tales of horror, disgusting images, or unnerving recollections.

Was once donators-only, but was given to all users most likely through popular demand.0
Indian Content 1764583238755.png A pile of feces with the Indian flag on it, referencing the scatological fixation perceived in Indian culture.For posts either relating to India or with messages assumed to have been written by an Indian.

A few people laughed, a few people cried. Most people were silent. I remembered the line from the Hindu scripture, the Bhagavad Gita; Vishnu is trying to persuade the Prince that he should do his duty and, to impress him, takes on his multi-armed form and says, "Now I am become Death, the destroyer of worlds." I suppose we all thought that, one way or another.-∞
Nice Meme! 1764583179066.png A picture referencing the "doge" meme.Supporters Board-only. Was only available on the joke/spam board.

Semper Fi 1621100386477.png A marine corps service medal, a reference to Jace Connors, who was obsessed with becoming a marine and would utter this phrase as kudos.Donators-only. Used in exactly the same situations as "Winner," but is more special because only donators can give it, and carries a stronger significance to Kiwifarms as a community. Sometimes is given to posts involving the military in some form.+2
TMI 1621100608542.png A scouter from the manga/anime "Dragonball," used to display the information of a target.Originally called "power level," now called TMI (which stands for "Too Much Information"), given to posts which offers needlessly excessive or revealing information on its own poster, especially when it is unsolicited, unrelated, or embarrassing.

Thunk-Provoking 1621100860503.png The "thinking" emoji which in of itself has become a meme.Is so generally used, can mean anything from the simple acknowledgement that the giver read the post or that they genuinely found it thought-provoking.

Winner:winner:A simplified military service medal.Rewarded to those who make anything seen as well-made or highly entertaining, such as an excellently crafted joke, a comprehensive collection of information, or an impressive art piece.

Null's Love :mutted:
null-transheart.png
A smiley based on the poorly-drawn Wikihow depiction of a drooling dog and Facebook's "Care" emoticon.Admin-only. Identical to the Achievement rating, but Null didn't think just a single rating exclusive to himself was good enough.+50
Null's Love 1.0 1709816137695.png A smiley hugging a heart. Is a direct copy of Facebook's "Care" emoticon.Was available for literal minutes when ratings were being fiddled around with in 2024. Its meaning and purpose is unfathomable.X
Off-Topic(removed)A broken chain, symbolic of how the post "breaks away" from the discussion.Exclusively posts deemed off-topic, as these posts obviously detracted from the discussion at hand. This was removed because the users were just rating posts off-topic instead of reporting them.X

Press 2(removed)A "2" button from a keyboard, a reference to Jace Connors, who would ask his viewers to post "2" as a means of voting on something.Was only available on the joke/spam board. While occasionally was used for actual voting, with posts prompting readers to "press 1" or "press 2" for a binary option, was generally used to express disagreement or disapproval.X

FAQs

Are ratings/stickers important? Do they affect anything? Do they even matter?
No, no, and no. They're mostly just used to easily display the value of a post and to reward/punish good/bad posts respectively. Your resulting score also doesn't matter, although you might be made fun of for having a low score. In general, it's a Skinner box to encourage better posts, and a user's resulting score is just a decent means of determining their presence on the forum.​
Should I get angry over ratings? What about constantly rating people I don't like negatively?
If you're going to, make sure it's done as publicly as possible so everyone else can enjoy the show. Rating people negatively en masse (neg-rating) or rating a person negatively because they did the same to you (revenge-rating) can get your privileges to even give ratings revoked if you're annoying enough.​

Is a negative score possible?
Yes, if you're obnoxious, stupid, or gross enough. A combination of all three especially helps. For example, see Tommy Tooter's profile.​

How do I get the donators-only ratings?
Give Kiwifarms your hard-earned money. Or just get somebody to donate and "promote" your account on your behalf, since that happens, too.​

Can I suggest a new rating/sticker?
You certainly can, but you really shouldn't bother since odds are it'll be rejected. Less is more, so there's more demand for simplifying ratings rather than adding new ones, especially when there's a lot of overlap.​

Is there a way to make it so I'm not notified when I get a new rating?
Yes, you can edit it in your forum preferences. Click on the alert icon and hit "preferences" at the bottom of the tab which pops open.​
Do ratings/stickers influence post highlights?
Yes. A post is highlighted through an automated system if it has more ratings/stickers relative to the previous and next handful of other posts. It doesn't matter if the rating/stickers are positive or negative, meaning highly controversial posts can be highlighted. Since it is a comparison of engagement against other posts, it is possible for a post with only a single rating/sticker to be highlighted, which usually happens in new or unpopular threads. There is otherwise no way to influence the forum's highlighting function even if you are a moderator or admin.​
