um...ratings?

I haven't been here in a week or so, so forgive me if this has already been adressed...I noticed new icons for the site supporters, very nifty....but where on earth did the star ratings go?

The stars sucked.

It had nothing to do with anything and was just a waste of space IMHO. If you really miss stars, I can post some cute little gif files and you can use those as your avatar. LOL. Besides this makes all us lazy people donate.

Yes Marisa your right. It is rather embarrasing seeing the side of the page loaded with huge site supporter banners, then seeing my empty space -.-'. Guess it is time to lose the lazyness and make a paypal account

no one is being forced to make a donation.. No one has ever been People that want to make a donation, will. If you can't afford to make one, please, don't feel that you NEED to make one no matter what.. Just remember the little people when you can afford to

As Marisa said, it doesn't take ton of money either. Hell if every member donated only 1 dollar per month Jeff could quit his job

I know from personal experience that every little bit helps and no donation isn't appreciated.

But it still sucks, because even when I did want to become a site supporter, I was going to tell Jeff to leave my stars...I liked the star system.

I think its better without them. "Newbies" were quite often misled thinking that because the person giving them advice had lots of stars maybe that meant something, whereas the # of stars means nothing knowledge wise. I could have 5000 posts & still know Jack about what I'm telling people. I think it will make it so there are a lot less posts, just for the sake of getting stars. Mark

I disagree about the stars being misleading.
There are certain members whose posts or responses I look forward to,not because they've accumulated stars,but because of the content of their posts.
Even a newbie can pick up on who knows what they're talking about and who doesn't if they visit this site a few times.
Oh well,sorry to see them go.

Its very frustrating when people complain both ways about things.... Someone says repeatedly that they need to go and then you remove them and people complain again about them going....
