Negative rating
imagine if negative ratings were actually good for something | |
the way most rating systems work now only the positive ratings make any difference in your recomendations. Its all a simple 'you liked this, other people who liked this also liked that, so you might like that.'
imagine if those negative ratings made a difference. 'If you hate this, you might like
this instead' or "if you hate this, don't even bother with this'

you need to check your spelling in the idea name. |
|
| |
Not a bad idea, but I'm voting against it for misspelling the title, which makes us all look like numskulls. |
|
| |
Well dang, Google said it was fine. (In fact, neither Google spellcheck nor the hyper dictionary recognize numbskull.) |
|
| |
admin: fixed title spelling. |
|
| |
What was the mis-spelled title, out of interest? |
|
| |
I'm assuming that is was "Negative Ratting", which may suggest an entirely different idea. Something about pest control using electrodes. |
|
| |
sorry about that stupid typo, but when an idea hits you at 3 in the morning, and you post in before you forget it, well yeah, these spelling things happen. oops |
|
| |
It's probably 'negative ranting'. |
|

//'If you hate this, you might like this instead'// |

I can see that one getting used - the 'large South American river' will no doubt soon start work on it. |
|
| |
//"if you hate this, don't even bother with this'// |
|
| |
That one is probably more likely to be right (and therefore useful) but I can't imagine any company wanting to put customers off a purchase on that basis. An independent site might use it though. |

I think they already do this. |
