You all know this forum rating thing that's here when you open up the profiles?? I'm confused about the 1-10 scale- is one really good, or is 10 really good??? I can't tell if people are dissing me, or if they're thinking I'm pretty swell..... image

    In the rating scale, 1 is the best, 10 is the worst.

    Ratings get worse when discussing moderns or politics.

    Nobody knows, so we're all pretty much 5.5's, the average possible grade. image

    Edited to say that my rating is 5.34.

    Russ - I don't know whether I should thank you or cry.

    The closer you are to #1 means you are a doofus.

    The closer your are to #10 means you are an idiot.

    I hope this clears the matter up once and for all.

    When was the last time you heard a sports team chant "We're Number 10!" ?

    I gave those I had not yet rated a "1" because most everyone on this forum is #1. image
  • ksteelheaderksteelheader Posts: 11,777 ✭
    It's really something that PCGS should eliminate.

    All a person has to do is piss off someone like the moron "Monkeyman" and your rating will get dropped a few points!

    It really serves no real purpose!

    So let me get this straight...This rating scale in ones profile is simply for the people that want to rate you on a like or dislike basis...Correct? I'm ignorant so fill me in.image

    Pretty much. With no clear cut definition of what's good or bad (1 or 10) it's worthless. I'm just trying to get a bunch of RATERS (votes) and don't care what the rating is.

    I would figure common sense on the 1 to 10 scale (1 terrible to 10 great). I too, think it's a worthless part of ones profile.

    The rating system is obviously a 1 to 10 scale with 1 being bad, 10 being bad and 7 being just about perfect. image

    It's not even that. An impulse rating over a statement is there forever, even though the rater might change his or her mind.

    You can turn that option off. Leave it to the individual to draw their own conclusions.

    Most anyone who has a firm opinion about the coin market or politics is going to end up in the middle of the ratings. Currently I'm a 5.60, which is about as high as I've even been. Most all of the "good contributors" are in the 5 to 6 range. If you have close to a 10 you must be a newbie with few votes, or a wishy-washy person who takes no controversial positions.

    Next to the chat option, the rating system is totally worthless.

    Everyone either gives you a 10 or a 1. Seriously, have you ever given somebody a 3 or a 6?
