Since you turned off ratings, the forum experience has improved drastically. - Leave ratings off, people are actually talking.

I've seen lots more actual discussion and people being forced to justify their opinions on things rather than just slapping down a rating. I know you probably won't do this, but leaving the ratings off wouldn't ruin my day.

Just saying.

I disagree with you, but I don't have any extensive arguments to make about it.

I just wish there were some way to express my disagreement without shitting up the thread by just saying "i disagree" and nothing else

 

[YW 525]

Huh... that guy left a rating. Whaaaaaa?

@dysentery what witchcraft is this?

 

[SofondaCox]

What the fuck, can't you just let me be my lazy, antisocial self?

I don't see how you can base this off of just 3 hours of using the site.

 

[YW 525]

Oh man it's more like twenty minutes.

Instead of leaving ratings, I see people quoting and responding. It's great! Makes the threads harder to catch up on, though.

 

[User names must be unique]

@Red Sun I concur with you assessment but have nothing further to add.

 

[Null]

I think you're experiencing confirmation bias.

 

[YW 525]

That's usually pretty close to the mark.

edit: also the TMI rating just reminded me that I did feel a twinge of excitement when I read:
Powerlevel has been renamed 'TMI', leading future generates to wonder what the fuck the icon is.

 

[The Flawless Gazelles]

[NOT Sword Fighter Super]

Donkey rape.

 

[ProgKing of the North]

[BlueSpark]

People who slander the precious stickers should be skinned alive and left for the insects.

 

[Kamiii]

This is a reminder to myself to rate this post when everythings back.

 

[DarkSydePundit]

I kick puppies

 

[uncleShitHeel]

Why can't tommy wiseau laughing be a rating?

 

[DisapprovingCorgi]

I lost my deviant rating. I had it yesterday, not that I'm actually going to use it, I just felt like I was finally a real live Kiwi and I was strutting around, laughing secretly at all the dopes who wish they were Kiwis. I coulda been a contender! Now I'm deviant-ratingless and back to being a nobody. What a pisser! ?

Well you're certainly living up to your user name right now.

As stupid as jockeying for stickers can get, I think they serve their purpose well in cutting down on "yeah, dude" or "I don't agree with that" type posts you see cluttering up other forums.
