This thread deserves 1 ball post already...honestly i don't see point of such threads..it wont change anything,people are still gona mess around etc...whenever there is post rating system in some forum or site there is always people complaining about their post rated and for no good reason...
Also if new players pick who to listen to by post ratings then mmm,excuse me...

He is right, though. It seems like the rating system isn't working properly. The purpose of rating should be to let new players know whom to listen to and whom to ignore. But, it seems like it has just become a game, or a sort of popularity contest. Perhaps it should be suggested that only experienced players who have earned their way up the ranks should be aloud to rate posts. As far as his morons comment, I have seen it many times were all the posts in a thread are one balled regardless of any other factors by some one who just felt like doing it, or was bored, or wasn't held as a child. How can you not call them morons.

Thing is though over the course of time the posts do even out. Of course there will be the constant 1 balls but those do get evened out on the good posters. For example look at members such as Josef Ka, Rip88, Coco, and BB-Charles all members of the community who constantly write out detailed well thought out posts are members of the exclusive 4 ball club. While others who constantly are giving bad advice are below 3 balls. Since everyone gets 1 balled (Yes some more than others, but in general they deserve it) it does even out across the community.


Note: I'm very surprised BB-Edju is sitting at 3 balls I would think by now he'd be down below that since he is the only member I give 1 balls to (daily) I would appreciate anyone else who wanted to join in the vendetta. Thanks in advance ;)

You don't have any more balls to give.

Any two will do
Any three for me

You asked politely. I had no choice but to oblige.

Well, that is far from always the truth. But, regardless, I think thats the point the OP was trying to make, is that it is necessary to even out the rankings for them to correctly reflect the value of the post. It shouldn't have to be that way.

Blame human nature. People are far more likely to anonymously 1 ball a post that 5 ball a post as they don't have to explain themselves so it becomes a tool not only for if someone is wrong but if the rater disagrees with someone. Example Ned who posted a few posts above, I've seen him arguing on a few posts in global with his fellow Italians and all of their ratings got slayed because of it. I doubt the system will change anytime soon as there are more important parts of the game to improve/change. But if people do have suggestions on how to improve it I would be delighted to converse on the pro's and con's of a new system in the suggestions forum. I think the idea mentioned above about only being able to approve of posts is a very good idea from a psychological standpoint.
