Have you checked your "User Rating" lately??

In the past with the old software PCGS was using we all wondered whether "1" was good or bad, whether the scale ran from 1-10 as best to worst or vice-versa. I am here to tell you that I checked someone's profile and the new software solves the mystery: "1" is bad and "10" is good.
It struck me as funny when I checked my profile and I have been rated as a "5" by everyone!!!

Are you sure about that?

Thanks for the heads up.

Let's see?

Gave you a ten, you are now a 5 rating. Congratulations!!!
BTW, it's OK to give me a 10.

I was doing okay until someone gave me a one. I wonder who I pissed off?
Lance.
I confess, it was me Lance. I am not happy that you own all the most beautifully toned CBH's in existence.....Now you understand why I took out my frustrations on your User Rating.
The real question isn't what you rate, but whether you'd sticker at that level.
I've never rated anyone on the forum, either - other than making some mental notes.
I also found that my state was listed as Florida (correct), and my country listed as US Minor Outlying Islands....close enough LOL!
Wow. Someone 2'd me. I must be doing something right

I know who I pissed off. I made what I thought was an insightful comment about CAC stickered coins and was told that I was a liar and boom, two quick ones.
Meh
Keets = vanilla?
Vanilla is the most popular flavor in the world. Not a bad way to go.
Apparently I am a 2.
Weren't you able to disable the voting system on the old forum software? I don't remember having it enabled before.

Hmm, apparently that function isn't working.
I have the option for others to rate me turned off.

Wow! Now I have 5 ones. Thank you folks, thank you...

I guess not any more. Thanks!

I used to be a 10. Had one vote. Now I have 2 votes and I'm a 6.
Wow. Someone 2'd me. I must be doing something right
Wow 2x... You guys are mean ... Since I posted this about 2 hours ago, I received 3 more votes and now my average is down to 5 with 5 votes. Well I guess it can never be 1 or 10, so that's good news
A perfect score

No, you haven't been rated a "5" by everyone. That's just your average rating. You've no doubt gotten some higher and some lower.
Collector since 1976. On the CU forums here since 2001.
I have had user ratings disabled ever since I joined and just looked to find a 1/1 rating?
Just what happened to me... I thought, "how harsh" I had just turned it on and already I was the worst.
I must be pretty controversial with 30 votes.
User Rating: 4
No of votes: 30
But maybe it only reflects two people, one who voted me a 10 and another voted me a 1 and then used their 28 alt's to vote me as one of the worst.
For the most part I think people tend to rate people 1's because it is anonymous and it's a way to dig at them if they feel they've been slighted.
There are people here who are genuine 10's, like BillJones and Analyst for example among others.
But having a low rating on the forum should be considered a badge of honor knowing we made an impact. Kind of like getting a negative feedback from some fool on eBay because you stood up for being right when they tried to screw you over.
Is this the numismatic equivalent of Hot or Not?
It's a Hot or Not rating, for sure, but I'm not sure how numismatic it is.

They could have at least used numismatic terminology. Ratings from Cull to MS-70.

I WAS perfectly content NOT knowing about this feature...now I gotta suck up to some people to "boost" my ratings. Overall rating:5 from 8 raters...eh, I am average...I think.
I just gave you a 10. No sucking necessary.

On sights such as ratemyprofessor students whom dont do well in a class are very quick to bash and rate low a professor. If a teacher bumps up grades and curves they get top marks.
ive been on the boards for almost 8 years and only 2 people gave me a rating- both a 2.
Truthfully I didnt even know such a scale existed until this thread...
Rick, I tried to rate you but couldn't find "Original" in the choices!!
I have never had it turned on.... because frankly, I do not give a good pile of fecal matter what anyone would rate me....
