What is a member rating, and how do you make it higher? I was at 3 and dropped down to 2.5. What did I do wrong?

When you go to someone's member profile, there's an option to rate them, 1-5. Some people must not like you, to rate you that low. It's too bad. It's a great system, however sometimes bothers me in that I currently have a 3.66 rating, I think, and I wish I knew what I did wrong, to offend or wrong whoever rated me as low as I am now. I'll never know, probably.

@hydroblitz: cobralex297 pretty much summed it up. Member rating is done anonymously by other members. I can only assume members just rate others based on general post content and post "vibe". Member rating generally does not affect anything else really unless a member is causing notable problems on the board. In that case, member rating may play a role in what action would be taken to discipline a problematic member.

How do you go in someone's profile?

Edit: Ok, I found it and gave all of you a 5 rating. :)

The system isn't very good IMO, simply because of how one bad rate can mess up everything. (explaining why DX had a low rating earlier and why I've been stuck at 5 ever since I've recieved ratings) Really, it's just something I ignore and don't regard too much.

Ratings do not really reflect reputation well, unless you have a lot of ratings. I have 6 5's and a 1. Of course I don't care about the numbers, because I can do magic tricks [the "disappearing" trick comes to mind] if I suspect you gave me a 1... :laugh:

[Just kidding though]. If you post well and don't cause any problems, you'll find that bad ratings will be diluted over time.

I would never give you a 1, in fact, I gave you a five!

Perhaps it was your previously annoying blind advocation of the Hydroblitz, which frankly, isnt all that good for it's size, but you've improved tons since then, both in general politeness and adding to the forums.

Haha, yeah. Sorry to everyone about me being obsessed with the HB. I just realized there are other great guns too! :D
