A pot of coffee a day excessive. Never. Thats the norm.

Rating someone's work as a 10 just because they complain on the messageboard is unfair and makes a mockery of what we are trying to achieve with the rating system. If everyone complains on the board about their ratings, are you personally going to go around "putting it right"? It's not your place to do that, ratings are there for a reason. Not many of us like the rating system, and you can understand why when it's open to abuse like this.

Agreed...That is BS!!! Nothing less than 'Ratings Abuse' >

If you rate, it should be about the craftsmanship of the work as well as other things...Not because 'YOU' feel sorry for someone or 'YOU' feel it should be rated higher

If that's how you rate, you shouldn't have the ability to do so

That is so true. Ratings should be given after taking under account all aspects of the design and ONLY the design and consciously give the rating that you feel it deserves.
By giving a rating because you like the artist or because you feel sorry for the artist or because that artist gave you a good rating on one of your designs, etc. You are not been true to your self, you are not been true to the rating system and you are not been true to the artist you are rating. If a person cannot rate a design for the right reasons, that person shouldn’t be rating at all.
