THE RATING SYSTEM IS SO STUPID ON WC!!!

..or everywhere

Wednesday, August 22, 2012 by ZubaZ | Discussion: WinCustomize Talk

I saw this and couldn't help but think of all the rating fights we've had on WC over the years.  

 

I got lost and wandered into the world's creepiest cemetery, where the headstones just had names and star ratings. Freaked me out. When I got home I tried to leave the cemetery a bad review on Yelp, but as my hand hovered over the 'one star' button I felt this distant chill ...

 

It's never worth worrying about in any case.

Great chart, Zu. 

I look at it like this: If I rate it at less than a 3/5 in my head, it doesn't get downloaded and used. Site ratings/download counts mean little to me, I either like it or I don't.

Lol, except the rating system is ten stars here at WC Wiz.  They cut each star in half, so each star is 2 points.  So if you are giving a skin a 3 out of what you thought was a 5, you are actually rating it a 3 out of 10.

Ten ½ stars, if you absolutely have to be picky.

Right, which makes a 3 a 6, or  does it make a 6 a 3?

What leads to rating fights? :-

- what an 'artist' thinks their work is worth

- what it's actually worth

More noteworthy than the "rating system" is the fact the OP had no misspellings.

Spot on, Michael. Especially amongst the wallpaper "artists".

I didn't want to say it myself so directly, but you know what I mean when I say 'artists'

It was probably copy and paste from somewhere

I say we make the ratings go all the way to 11.

I say we make The ratings Public.

Then there would be much more fair ratings overall.

If you stand for what you think, Rate, If not, Just don´t.
