Thread etiquette: ratings

Recommended Posts

So regarding some of the recent posts in a member submission, it seems needed that people should understand etiquette.

 

Like: You simply like what someone said or did in a post.

 

Dislike: You simply did not like something in a post and might not disagree with it.

 

Fuck you: (Possibly to be removed) For when someone is particularly being an asshat and deserves and old "Fuck you"Please don't mistake this for disagree, because that would be rude and improper.

 

Agree: You respectfully agree with the post or the words said in the post. Slightly different from liking a post, because you don't necessarily have to like what is said.

 

Disagree: You respectfully disagree with what is said in a post or what the post is about, even if you like the post you might disagree with it.

 

Funny: Something could have made you smile, or you might find it humorous.

 

Not Funny: Something someone said is distasteful or just a bad attempt at a joke. If it is extremely distasteful, see 'Fuck You'.

 

Lazy: Something said in the post is not very well thought through, or just lacks effort in what is said. Maybe in other cases someone just does something very lazy.

 

Sad: Did something make you depressed or hurt your heart? Maybe you look back on the post and it just makes you realize that the whole thread has gone to shit and it makes you sad.

 

Nerd: A light-hearted stab at a friend about maybe their sonic obsession, or they literally did something straight up nerdy.

 

Winner: Generally viewed as when someone makes a post so relevant or fitting to the thread that you think it is the winner of the thread.

 

Informative: When someone makes a post in the thread that is helpful information-wise to the thread, like a post giving people the correct usage of ratings in threads might be informative.

 

Friendly: Simply for when someone is making an attempt to be a friend and be nice to someone.

 

Useful: Very much like informative, but it might not give information, but more of it being a picture or a photoshop that helps you.

 

Optimistic: For when someone looks on the happy side of a thread and makes an observation or comment on how it could be better. A lot of these should be seen in a sad thread.

 

Ding!: Someone gets it in the thread.

 

Creative: Someone makes a picture, painting, comment, pun or maybe a joke that is just surprisingly creative in your eyes.

 

African: (Joke Rating) For when you have no other opinion.

 

British: When something is overwhelmingly of britain, I.E: A whole post about tea.

 

Furry: In a post mainly about animals, or in the worst case, actual... "Furry Things", it might be useful to rate with this.

 

Blaze It: Dedicated to Moosty in the great Weed Wars of 420 AD. For when the post is about weed.

 

Drunk: Dedicated to Bach. For when someone is actually drunk or is pretty incomprehensible.

 

Bad Spelling: For when someone's spelling is bad, enough said.

 

Boring: One of a more rare ratings. Maybe someone posted the entire dictionary, then this would be a relevant rating.

 

Smelly(Formerly Shitpost): For use of when someone's post is just bad and they should feel bad, or they do something that could be described as smelly... like unspeakable things. As @Bach says; rate any of @Chrono's posts.

 

And above all else, don't get butthurt if people are rating you a certain way, this thread is just here as an example of what should be the ratings system.

i don't really think this was needed

I'm fairly sure everyone is aware of what these ratings mean aside from ratings like "African", which is just however you want to interpret it. Its nice to see someone who wants to aid on removing the toxicity, but ratings have little to no practical effect. It is entirely up to the "victim", for a lack of better words, who ultimately determines whether they should take offense to something as frivolous as a rating or not. The obvious answer is no, you shouldn't :coffee:
