There you go a rating from me to you...

This isn't the first time you've posted something along these lines is it?

If you stop posting crap and make some good posts then people will rate them positively... ever considered that?

I try to use the ratings conservatively. Well, I make a point of remembering to rate something if it stands out above the rest of the posts. How ever I don't see that as a main part of reading the forum.

If you're asking people to rate your posts, would you be happy for lots of people to rate your posts down as well?

Remember, while it does have an effect on your karma, that is not the primary reason for the ratings system, from the way I see it.

The way I see it, the rating system is an alternative to saying 'I like/don't like your post' - so that people can get an idea of how others view their posts with out lots of one liner 'ROFL' style posts.

In the end I write posts for the sake of conversing with other people; if I got a lot of bad ratings I would take notice, otherwise I'm happy enough to use the forum as just that; a 'forum' for talking to other bikers.

And yes I'm waiting for people to point out that I've got such and such a colour karma, so I'm standing on my high castle, blah, blah : roll :.

Some recent posts I have included pictures and spent time making the post up for all to enjoy, out of 200+ viewers for not one to rate is annoying.
Most days I end up with not being able to rate posts, some really helpful or funny posts have been cropping up and I whack the rating as soon as, it’s not hard. Rolling Eyes

If people don't rate your posts then there is a very simple reason, despite what you might have been told there isn't some secret movement out telling everyone not to rate killa's posts. People rate what they want to, not what you or anyone thinks should be rated.

Putting lots of pictures, spending hours writing a post is all well and good but I'd still only rate it on the content rather than the length of it or number of pictures.

Maybe there's another reason why you're not getting many post ratings.... Thinking Thinking

Oh dude man....this is getting lame.

Why oh why does it matter? Please! Save your dignity mate and leave it! I don't really like to use the karma system, it doesn't really tell the person who they are.

Honestly. Does all of your pride lie in the colour and number of your blobs? Please dude...This is jsut beginning to show you as attention seeking and I don't mean to say that in a nasty way as most of the time you're "cool"!

Yeah, some really offensive jokes to forum members get missed, i dont know if it was a good one or not.
I could list people’s names here who use the Karma system correctly, and the ones who don’t.
With some of Ste’s posts he’ll put a video link with about 4 words, I open it, close it, BANG, rating.
I might be in a honeymoon period of ratings where by I have only recently used them correctly for posts, I guess some of you can’t be fucked as you have been on here longer.
I had 3 green blobs the other month from 5 I think, I didn’t care, I wasn’t banned, I wasn’t being bummed by Korn.
Please, I am not doing this to try and get where Keith is with Gold blobs, I just wish people could be bothered so I know if it is a good post or not.

Good post = Thumbs Up karma rating.
Average post = Nothing
Shit post = Thumbs Down karma rating

But as people reply and/or PM you about your posts then you do know if they're good posts or not. Smile

People rate posts when they want to, if your posts aren't getting rated then the problem is with the posts rather than with everyone who reads them.

Killa - if you just posted stuff people wanted to read, rather than stuff you think will increase your karma, then you'll probably find that your posts will get a few more ratings...

My point wasn't that there's anything inherently wrong with your posts, just that you shouldn't really care quite as much as you obviously do about receiving some ratings for them!
