STARS

umm.. I get confused when I vote. (I get confused at other times too..but let's try and focus, shall we LOL)... any hooo.. When I really like a poem and I vote it a 5..someone else comes along, that doesn't like it as much and then votes it a 4..which entirely blows my 5 out of the water.. So if I just give it a 4 it's better.. cause then it can only go up..right? I think Cobalt and I had this discussion a long time ago and he was right.. Rolling Eyes I think the voting process is..sucky!!!!!




Re: STARS

it doesn't blow it out of the water. if you hadn't voted, they would have the 4 the other person gave them. but because you voted 5, they now have 4.5. it's just an average. it doesn't make your vote irrelevant.




Re: STARS

Here's what confuses me....

In the premium section, the order of the stars is reversed --- 1 is at the top and 5 at the bottom (in the general section it's the opposite). Click too quick in the premium section and you could wind up dropping a 1 on a poem that you thought was a 5. Not good.

(By the way... I did PM Mick and ask if he could reverse the order in the premium section so that it mirrored the general section --- I believe he does have this on his list of to-be-made site modifications, so I guess I'm just venting here... Rolling Eyes )




Re: STARS

Voting would be better suited to rating commentaries, than poems themselves, m'thinks.

And I do think the order of the premium vote is a bit out.
