I don't rate anyone. Mostly because I don't see any point in the rating system. If you feel someone made an excellent post in response to a thread, I feel it is much better to send them a private message telling them such, opposed to using an anonymous rating system. And I strongly agree with Halbereth's statement about those asking to be rated. Although if the ratings were applicable in some sort of tangible way, then I might be motivated to actually rate someone, and would understand people asking to be rated in return.
And to attempt to answer Lush's querry about what the ratings are for, I don't know. I figured BW may have provided an answer, but so far hasn't.
