On the left, below the posts, there is a rate thread function. Select your score and press the button. I'm one of the people doing this, I think thechronic votes too, I don't think many other people here rate anything... __ "In dnb you should make people jump not swim" - Pieter Frenssen 2004 26-01-2004 15:10 Phazzy Cool Producer Registration Date: 12-10-2003 Posts: 121 No... sorry i meant the songs that ppl have uploaded how do they get rated and can anybody rate a song? __ 26-01-2004 16:15 Muad'Dib Andrejnalin Registration Date: 02-12-2003 Posts: 4,197 Helpfulness rating:  Actually, you can't rate a song. We rate the threads for the tunes, that are auto-created... So, that ratings are automaticaly put on the Listen Page and those are the ratings of the tunes!

I have the feeling that if someone downloads a track with rating 4 or 5 they expect top quality, so there may be not a single problem in the mix or the structure. May be a bit harsh maybe, but I think this is a good rating system. I guess Surya has roughly the same criteria I never give ratings on the style!! Just on the production quality. I think it's not fair to give a track a bad score just because you don't like the style! __ If you find spam on the site, please hit the button and select my name.

Always on quality, not on style. My score's are identicle I think. Voting on a 5-step scale is very different from a 10-step scale, it's not just devided by 2. Comes to about this: 9/10 and above: 5/5 7.5/10 to 8.5/10: 4/5 6.5/10 to 7/10: 3/5 5.5/10 to 6/10: 2/5 5/10 and below: 1/5 or something like that... __ "In dnb you should make people jump not swim" - Pieter Frenssen 2004 27-01-2004 09:35 Phazzy Cool Producer Registration Date: 12-10-2003 Posts: 121 Yea I add a third.... ratings should rate quality We should use the comments pages to tlk about the style of the song. Although this could confuse Newbies, coz the might think its weird that maybe somebody has a high rating but in the comments page, people are saying that they dont like the style.... if that makes sense! But thats just what I think __ 28-01-2004 12:32 Muad'Dib Andrejnalin Registration Date: 02-12-2003 Posts: 4,197 Helpfulness rating:  quote: Originally posted by Phazzy Yea I add a third.... ratings should rate quality We should use the comments pages to tlk about the style of the song.

Nice rank list, though I will never gt 3-4-5 rating Whatever, I juz try... May the force be with me! __ Thinking about becoming an Image-Line/FL Studio customer? Want a 10% reduction in price?

I'm going to redesign the listen page in the second week of february (there are way too many tracks in there to fit on one page, I wonder how people still find the mixes at the bottom ) I'll put in a notice about the rankings, so people will understand even if it's their first visit to the site. __ If you find spam on the site, please hit the button and select my name.
