I’m reading a thread that I posted in when I notice that my rating is zero mushrooms. I am very new to the Shroomery, and so I had been unrated until this point. When I go to see why I was rated in such a way, I find that the only comment is “wakarimasen” which I learn is a Japanese phrase for “I don’t know.”
Since I can’t think of what I could have said to upset this person (this person whose name I have never even seen until this point), I am certain that this is some kind of joke.
This makes me wonder why there is even a rating system at all when someone can just give someone a bad rating for fun and leave them with a rating of zero. My intentions in creating this account were only ever to ask for help when I need it and to give help to people when they need it; now I have a tarnished name so that someone was able to giggle to himself while hid behind his computer screen.
What is the point of this rating system when it doesn’t even reflect the credibility of the person it is rating?

Don't worry about it. And making threads like these is a good way to get more ones.

We take trade ratings very seriously, but the general ratings are mainly for fun.

Ah, I see. I was under the impression that [general] ratings were something of real significance. Thanks for clarifying.

I must admit, after reading this thread if I wasn't so nihilistic against ratings, I'd give you a one

General ratings are like the Queen of England. Just there for show, doesn't do a damn thing.

Some are serious some are not, but none of them really matter. Who cares how many mushrooms come with the comment. The rating is in the comment.
