Re: Known abusers of the system
what zimmah is forgetting is this rating system is more about perception
just because hovering the mouse over the 3 star says average doesn't make it so
who's to say i don't perceive 3 to be awful or for that matter amazing peoples perception of things can be so far from each other it can be unreal
i partly agree with zimmah's campaign but in the end we are not all carbon copies of each other or mindless drones that perceive a 3 star to be average
i personally don't give that many 3 stars as I'm more or less an all or nothing kind of person you are either great or your useless
so regardless what you say zimmah your gonna struggle to change peoples perceptions of thing

All I ask is not to be disappointed when I leave you guys 2's and 3's and it hurts your prestigious rating, I've come to accept that the rating system will be flawed as much as people insist that everyone should have their own interpretation - which I highly disagree with. Common sense and 99% of the other systems out there say otherwise. I just know when I give someone a 4 in a rating, and it's meant to be a compliment to the player, he/she will probably get annoyed.
What you give is your choice. As long as you are not annoyed when you get 5's from me we should be ok.
The truth is though, even If I had all 1's my name is enough to fill my 50 games within 24 hours. I earned that reputation from my above average fair play and my very average game play.

Not really
The ratings people have will have an average, and that average will be calculable. Most likely, it won't be the rating that is designated as "average", but it will be an average that everyone can easily be compared to. Mark my words. It WILL happen. It'll just take more than 4 days.
