I noticed that there is a "rate member" feature on the new BBS, which is pretty cool. Yet, we all seem to be five-star members. Don't get me wrong; it's great that we all rhink of eachother with respect, but how will we ever know what a five-star rating REALLY feels like unless there is someone with a one-star rating, a proverbial hallmark of troll posting and flame wars? Every triumph needs a tribulation; how can we ever know true bliss if it's all we ever experience?
I would like to be such a sacrifical lamb. Thus, I implore each member (new and old) to give me a one-star rating ASAP, lest we all lapse into that warm, utopian glow that a five-star rating gives.
Please; for the sake of the board.
Brendan

Person or persons unknown only gave Steve Cohen, a piano dealer who posts on the other board, FOUR stars.
Who was being cute? How does this ratings stuff work, anyway? :p

Liszt "fans" ganging up? Hahahahaha, more like Liszt fan. Wait, there's Diarmuid, so that makes two of us.
I hope that upon the posting of this reply my rating will have gone down by at least two starts - don't disappoint me!

Ha! I tried to rate you Alex, but I thought you turned the rating thing off ON PURPOSE. It is a dumb thing - like how many carnations you got in high school on Valentine's Day (Jodi - 0)  I have given everyone who has posted more than once 5 stars. I think. :rolleyes: Sorry if I missed anyone. Who is number 2, anyway?! I'm waiting for my senior membership. Hrmmph. :p #11 (Jodi) [ June 01, 2001: Message edited by: jodi ] [ June 01, 2001: Message edited by: jodi ]

I was quite surprised to see the 5 stars under my personal rating. I rate myself 1 star. Definitely NOT more than that!

Too late Brendan! As a fellow Liszt affictionado I gave you 5 stars days ago! Actually I've only given 5 stars to anyone so far (tried to give Alex 5 as well but he's turned off his rating bar, how discrete!).

Brendan and Jodi
Brendan, I gave you ten stars. Sorry, I can't lie.
Jodi, if you erase the left most "1" from your member number - well, I guess that means your number 1 (which you are).
Regards to both of you.
Mike

BTW, everyone on this forum and the Piano Forum is 5 stars in my book. I have learned a lot from each and everyone of you. And that includes 5-STAR Steve Cohen.
Regards to all of you,
Mike Pappadakis

Geez, guys; sounds like we all need one of those virtual group hugs!
OK, all together now: (HUG!!!) ;-)
Got to admit, this sure beats flame wars.

Wow, that is too cool. I am definitely starting to get the hang of this new format -- I like it.
Plus this is just a post so that I can increase my number so that I'm not a "junior" member forever.

Ahhhh, Alex, I see you succumbed and are exposing your five-star rating like the rest of us!
So I take it no one is going to give me one star...makes me sad.

I agree with Mike - you are all 5 stars in my book.  Thanks for the group hug, Cork. Jodi

Jodi, it seems that you have left us "junior" members behind and have become a full member. You're the most fitting to get there first, narually.

I just did a double-take on that "member-member" moniker.  Thought my old eyes were playing tricks! Congrats on passing the "15" mark, Cork and Jodi. Joy
