Wow - that was quick - the ratings are gone!  Well done JY!

All the best,

Bob

Thank you for your reply and I am very glad that JY are looking into removing the rating system!

Best wishes,

Bob

Hi Elisa,

Any comment from JY about the fact that someone has gone through the first six pages of reviews and given virtually all of them a one star rating?  I do not think this is helpful for anyone.

All the best,

Bob

Hi Bob,

I am afraid I have no comments on this as none of us at JYHQ would do such a thing.

What I can tell you is that we are looking at removing this functionality from the community.

Many thanks,

Elisa

I could be completely wrong here, but I thought the star ratings referred to the usefulness of the information in the thread as a whole and not the individual postings in it.  Bt as I said, probably wrong.

Perhaps JY can clarify.

Hi Sylvia,

That's the way we see it here at JYHQ, star rating should refer to the thread as a whole, not to the individual posts.

Kind regards,

Elisa

Thanks Elisa,

Wow! Right for a change.

Also do agree that it would be better to remove this ratings system, as I do agree with Bob that - for those that notice it - it could be disheartening to see a low score and discourage members from further postings.
