Yay! My rating has gone up at last

February 27, 2007 7:19am CST
My rating has been 82/100 for about 3 weeks now. I started a few discussions around that time that people obviously didn't like and my rating dropped right down from 98 to 82 and has stayed their since. Today I have gone up to 83/100 at last, so thanks to everyone who has been rating me postively it is making a difference at last.

Same her dear, even my rating shot down to 76 and was stuck at there for as many as 3 weeks, atlast it showed a little sign of improving its just because of my posting which members had marked negative rating and that it m rating is stucked up, hope it will soon start growing and my star changes to 9, waiting for that day, and about you congrats for that improvement hope you move back to your previous points a star of 10. what do you think this star does have any effect on our earnings or what, if we have better star do we earn more or what , if you have any idea please share.

Congratulations! I know how frustrating these ratings have been, as I am going through the same thing. It's difficult to handle because I don't want to be afraid to express how I feel or what I think simply because of the rating. You're right, though, that the positive ratings will make a difference in bringing you back up. Keep up the good work!

Congratulations Michelle. Hopefully it will jump even higher in the next days. It is a shame that some people here still Neg Rate just because they don't agree with a poster's views, but I don't think that will ever change. Some people are very narrow-minded, and can't accept that though people may have differing views from them, they still have the right to express them. Have a good evening.

If you have internet explorer you can move the mouse over the star and it will show you. If you Firefox I don't know how you check. I went to Firefox a few days ago and I have no idea what my rating is now. LOL

I'm happy to here that your star is on the rise. Amazing how fast it can fall and how long it takes to rise back up. I really think that people should have to give an explanation when marking a negative the same as they do when reporting abuse. People should not be allowed to mark negative for others having differing opinions. Just my 2 cents worth. :)

Congrats ! I hope that your rating will increase much more :) Every time I enter a discussion, the first thing I do is to rate the poster with a (+). Same thing here.

Michelle, how funny! I'm nearly in the exact same boat as you. My rating was stuck at 81/100 for ages, now I'm finally up to 82 as of like two days ago. I can't believe how long it's been taking for my rating to get back up there. I want to be even a nine again so badly I can almost taste it, lol, but at this rate it's going to take another month, or may never happen, lol! Anyway, congrats, and don't worry, I always mark you with plusses!! ^_^

If you put the mouse pointer over the star and let go of it, the rating will then come up on the screen for you.

glad to hear that your rating is better- i can't understand why people would do that to you in the first place, they obviously don't belong here.

i was surprised that when i hit 100 and got my star that my star was a 8 and i had 89/100. I was glad to see a 9 this morning and 93/100 but then i went upstairs to do somethings and now its 91/100. Oh well that doesnt bother me id rather much work at getting to 500 so i have more options to use on here like copy and paste and being able to put up more photos.
