Ah, but the key is-would you have deserved the negative rating?

But, if you say rating is better than Pming, I'd rather receive a pm for a small negative comment, than a rating. No matter how minor the problem is, it can take away a lot of points!

That's why I've only given out one negative rating so far.

A post has to be really bad for me to want to lower someone's rating. (I.E. off topic, offensive, and inarticulate all in one). Though I have not computed how many points I actually have to give or take away.

Indeed, those who have the power should wield it carefully.

It will also indicate if you are negative, even, or positive for that particular post

I'm guessing there are some in-between levels? For instance, I've seen at least one of my posts that was rated 'somewhat positive'...

We seem to have a new "high" on the rankings. Fordim Hedgethistle has now reached "---has the fame of Frodo". Hmm...wonder if there could be any higher? Possibly one naming Eru himself?

I have noticed that, too. (Who wouldn't, anyway?) Congrats, Fordim!

I was thinking the next one would be related to Aragorn...or maybe not. Eru is a lot more appropriate.
