    I expect to get all 5-stars!!

  2. emily | 24/06/09

    thanks

    I like the sharing thing, but I don’t really see the point of rating posts (just my humble opinion!)

    Could you please do a Keira Knightley post?
    It’s been absolutely ages since I last saw any pictures of her!

    Regards

    This is a great feature. Thanks for adding it!
    I have a quick question…I was just wondering why all my comments go to moderation? I don’t think I have ever disobeyed the rules? Thanks and keep up the great work with your site!

    the ratings are a great idea.

    but are we rating the posts based on who the post is about, or just the quality of the post??

  6. person | 24/06/09

    OH NO!!!!!!! NOOOOOOOOOOO!!!!! I’m all for the save ‘n share feature but rating the comments will be the DEATH of me!! I can’t stand to get my feelings hurt! This means I can’t saw awful things anymore! I literally panicked when I saw that! Is this your way of getting me to finally shut up!?!?? Oh, help… and I’ve had such fun here. :o ( (I’m afraid to go over to the forums and see that this exciting new feature is over there as well!) (?)… but I have to… I’m so afraid…

    Sorry, I think this rating thing on our comments will make people give excessive importance to what they write, and feel judged. It will cause more fights in my opinion.

  8. person | 24/06/09

    I’m shaking so that I just gave Cossey 5 stars! My first vote here and it went to COSSEY!!

    I seriously hate rating each other– it’s going to drive many an insecure person like me into an eating disorder! I just like to say things that make myself laugh– it makes me feel better. I don’t want to know what others are thinking about what I say. Quite the opposite, in fact! Oh help…

  9. Rian | 24/06/09

    person I hope you are joking…

    sama: whichever you want, it doesn’t really matter.

    For those of you who don’t like rating or don’t want to rate anything: don’t rate! You don’t have to. It’s just for fun. :-)

    I added the feature due to many requests for it over the past year or so.

    I don’t see how fights can break out if nobody knows who is rating… ;-)

    @person. Calm down. You like to dish it out but can’t handle a bit of criticism. It’s only vote’s from people who don’t have the balls to have an opinion.

    Looks like you might have to go back to wood. In stead of the awful things you saw!!! It’s nice to know ’saying’ awful things about others makes you feel good.

    Ha, the table’s are turned!!

  11. person | 24/06/09

    Rian, I have never been more serious. I am joking about needing to know the tricks around the system re: moderation, of course, but about the ratings– dead serious. But I’d leave before I let it send me into an eating disorder. Or found it an upsetting place to be. Maybe it will help me become a little more thick-skinned, but ugh… there are so many other practice grounds for that. I’d rather just have fun. And not judge each other. We do enough of that as it is without giving unexplained stars, or withholding them. What if only the deranged people vote? (Well, then maybe I have a chance…)

    I’m looking for a way to give 10 stars to Creepy Doll’s comment. (Already trying to cheat my way around… )

    Oh man, I’m burning some major calories here.

  12. londoncalling | 24/06/09

    @person, you don’t hurt anybody, you are funny, keep on writing, a star to cossey!!!!????

  13. Claire | 24/06/09

    sama | 24/06/09
    the ratings are a great idea.

    but are we rating the posts based on who the post is about, or just the quality of the post??

    Well, god help me if by quality of the post you’re talking spelling, typo’s and grammar. I’m f**ked! @person can second that (just kidding person)!

  14. person | 24/06/09

    I just have to add that discussing opinions and agreeing/disagreeing with one another, as we do over in the forums, is another story. If I was that afraid of criticism I wouldn’t be posting my opinion on the tattoos thread, for heavens’ sakes. I’m talking about being able to make a silly remark without people scoring it. Saying something harmless and wondering why someone gave me 1 star. But that’s MY problem– I don’t have to participate, and I certainly don’t want to ruin the fun for others here.

    Just voicing one opinion here. And in a more dramatic fashion than was necessary, but oh well. Too late. “Ready… Aim… Fire” tends to be my M.O. And to the anticipated “Calm Down” comments forthcoming I’ll give you 5 stars because I agree.

  15. person | 24/06/09

    **Ready… Fire… Aim** (missing those little “Edit” scissors we get in the forums!)

  16. person | 24/06/09

    Just as I was deciding maybe not to vote on any posts– I already spend too much time getting slowed down by overthinking things– I saw londoncalling’s post and had to give her 5 stars. tee hee (thank you, lc!) (gee, I wonder where my one 5-star vote came from!)

    Okay, already having some fun…

  17. person | 24/06/09

    I’m going to give myself 5 stars for everything I say. Immediately after I write it. Cuz that’ my opinion!

  18. person | 24/06/09

    OOPS! SOMEONE just lowered the average…

    Must’ve been an accident. We all have them. Hell, I just slipped and gave myself 1 star back in the burger post!

  19. Salmon | 24/06/09

    Person how old are you and do you have an alcoholic beverage in your hand right now? It sure sounds like it girl. Chillllll….

  20. person | 24/06/09

    10, always and no

  21. Megowwwn | 24/06/09

    person..

    GO AWAY!

  22. moonbel | 24/06/09

    Love it!!!! Thanks Rian :)

  23. Matilda | 25/06/09

    Love the sharing option but not the rating option. I find it childish to rate someone’s comment. Everyone is entitled to an opinion and now we rate them? I thought the reason we were here was about commenting on skinny or not so skinny celebrities?

  24. person | 25/06/09

    Now, now Megowwwn, just because the numbers on your scale were through the roof again this a.m. and you’re sick of looking at all that lard it’s no reason to get hostile… although I guess it would be difficult. I’ll give you a break.

  25. Cossey | 25/06/09

    I love girl fights!!

  26. person | 25/06/09

    Matilda couldn’t have said it better…
