Bogus Voting System (=Luna rants for a minute)

Pssst...(the lower the score the better)

Okay, who thought up voting on the quality of the posters? What a horrible idea! I mean, I guess there are some people out there who really are "worthless", but that's not the kind of thing you pass judgement on over the internet about someone you've most likely not even met.

Right now I have four stars. Why four and not five? What kind of kiss-*** do you have to be to get five stars? Does this mean I'm not funny? Not serious enough? Not intelligent enough to be a five star poster? Or does it simply mean that the voters who voted on me don't know me very well and gave me a conservative estimate?

Can you see where I'm going with this? Personally, I've got enough self esteem issues and I'm not going to let something like that bother me, but at the same time, I feel bad for the people out there who are going to take it seriously as a grade on their personality! And all this when perhaps the voters don't know them, or are fooling around, and such like. If we want to have a quality check on the posters, then there should be some sort of file where others can lodge complaints, compliments, etc - some form of constructive criticism, rather than an anonymous poll that has no explanation for the criteria it desires to give the ratings it assigns. BLEAH!

If you could at least see the average scores GIVEN out by the scorer, that means just as much as the score they themselves have received.

La Luna, Is that you in your avatar?

If so, what are you eating?

I think that rating a person is dumb.
I am surprised HB is still here, after all those problems they were having I thought you all would dissapear forever.
That would be tragic.
