    OK, I will now admit that while I hate the ratings thing, it still made me feel sad when I didn't have a green square. Now I have one I feel better, so I gave some other people some green squares too, so they wouldn't feel that no-one liked them, which is how I felt - even though I knew it was stupid.

    Admit it, didn't you feel bad when you didn't have a green square and some other people did?

    Stupid, isn't it? And pointless.

    Ditch it, Martin - please. Don't wait the week. It's not worth it.

    Well said. And I haven't even got the power to make anybody else green! :mad:

    At least I've got something new to moan about! ;)

  • Can I just point out to the users who are seeing this thread as 20 odd pages that the site default is viewing 10 posts per page but if you go into your User CP (control panel) you can change your view to a maximum of 40 posts per page which turns this thread into five pages :D

    (worth a vote maybe) ;)

    Admit it, didn't you feel bad when you didn't have a green square and some other people did?

    EDIT: Not to say anyone's stupid for wanting to use it, but it's stupid that it makes you feel bad when you haven't got a green square, is what I meant. :)
    Well I actually don't mind being different...................kinda always go against mainstream anyway...................but I like that JayS thought of me, so I'm cool with that tooooooooooo!! ;)

    I'm loving all the psychology behind this new system, it's well interesting!!!:D

    Hi guys

    We're just trying this. I'm not wedded to it - so we'll give it a couple of weeks and see what everyone thinks then. We can always turn it off. I thought it may help stop the spammers getting hi reps.

    Another feature we're looking at is 'thank you hack' so people can click a thank you on someone's post rather than saying it each time and clogging up the discussion.

    As i say though - they're just trials, they're not a big deal :)
    Mine doesn't appear to work anyway, but if you really want my honest opinion, the day you introduce this to the site is the day that I will delete my membership. I did not come on here to be 'rated' by other people. I joined because I saw this site as a community where I wished to belong and join in. If I want to be rated, I will stick to buying and selling on ebay. Sorry Martin, but that's how I feel about the whole thing
