A) when they want to post a image/forum they should pit [sig] etc.. stuff it will make it easier. B)Get the rating ball back..( I remember we used to have them) C) having a member especial rating sig like : -Bronze -Silfer -Gold ratings will make people come and rate for each thread, that way more people visit the show off board and help rate allot  . thanx  |

[sig] Isn't necessary, its usually obvious from the topic title itself anyway. Ratings were taken away because of the fact people tend to be more concerned about what number they were given rather than the important stuff - the feedback. Show off activity has been up for a while now anyway.
Thanks for your suggestions though.

It has been shown that people rarely read the show off rules. When you give a rate and comments, the person will usually answer "thanks for the rate. anyone else?" Makes it feel like your comments and suggestions went to waste because the artist never said anything about them, just "thanks for the rate." Gets really irritating after a while. |

True but they always want To see good and just say anyone else... But they should look into that often. And always try to be like that sometimes it might actually works. Like I got raised they told from that never give up. Try and try you get it some time |

The problem with the ratings were that a lot of people would just give the rating and no feedback. What is the point? A rating is no good if you can't learn from it. Then you have others that just give you a 6 because they haven't seen that style before, even though it has been done a million times, and they can't help you at all. Look at my Terragen work since those ratings went away, it has only gotten better tremedously. The feedback is way more important than the ratings, which is distracting from what is truly important.

B) Rating REALLY DOESN'T help at all. Comments and suggestions is what people needs. C) There you go, a good idea. The raters should deserve something for the hard work they put into rating. And this will hopefully stop people from giving n0 0bish rates. |

The only reward I'd give to people would be a moderator spot there, that means a little more than a signature. Or at othertimes I might PM people to say thanks for the work that they're doing in there.
The ratings were user friendly, most seemed to understand them.

And you need to work your arse off to get that spot. I think rewarding people with sigs is quite pointless, because a lot of time they don't use them or the sigs don't match what is currently in their signature or avatar. No one cares about sigs anymore. |

The idea for C is actually Mucleus's, he was a ratings mod/gmod at ZD. It really worked well and encouraged lots of people to get into rating properly, it's foolish to pass over it so lightly.
Through this system you may unearth 50 good raters, but you can't have 50 mods, so most aren't going to get rewarded. Why, therefore, should they carry on rating?
Contrary to what some of you think, people do care about sigs. Anything that is recognition and they can display proudly will please someone and keep them working. No reward whatsoever will not.

Yes, people does care about signatures. You have a point Morgoth. But it will be wise not to copy it directly from Zanmato. But do something different and more interesting |
