How do YOU deal out your bones? - The Barrow-Downs Discussion Forum

I find the ratings pretty pointless myself...at least when someone decided to give me a four instead of a five. Hehe! ^^; Anywho, I don't do ratings myself very often. I only give out fives, and only to those I like or am friends with. I don't like giving anything less than a five because I don't want anyone's feelings to get hurt, or their egos to be bruised. If I don't like someone, I just don't bother going to their info pages (where you give them bones, etc.). Also, going back to the five thing, I feel the same way Galadrie1 does - I worry that if I rate them any less than a five, I may regret doing so later. So, I just hand out the fives to those I like...

I'm not going to name any names, but there's an individual that I think is a cool guy - however, I haven't felt the need to give him his five bones as (currently) fifty-seven other people already have. I figure he already knows he's a people person. =) Adios.
