    O.K.,....... This just steam's me,.........

    This is not in reference to any of the ad's I have put in cl***ifieds, But do some of you guys really feel it's your duty to rate the cl***ified ad's ? Are you the same guys that walk through swap meets complaining what prices guy's have on there parts ? Then go home empty handed wandering why you can't find a Halibrand Quick Change for a Hundred bucks ?

    You don't like a guys price or part ?,.... fine, DON'T BUY IT !,..... But giving him a bad rating on his cl***ified ad is just juvenile !, On the other hand there are some 5 star ratings as well,..... What ! ???? ,... Do you think somebody with enough money and interest to buy it, needs (or even cares to have) your approval?

    I just looked over 10 pages of cl***ifieds (Then quit looking) and there are ratings on every page !, somebody doesn't have anything better to do then to "Rate cl***ified ads" ?????

    Hey guys !,...... These are cl***ified ad's,.... the only ones that need to be happy are the buyer and seller,... and if you ain't one of those two,... Keep yer big nose out of it !, WHO CARES WHAT YOU THINK !

    You just need to keep looking over every ad, and every swap meet looking for that $100.00 Halibrand,.... shaking your head as you wander along, complaining about the price of admission, Parking, Coffee,.... and of course the price of parts.

    I have always thought the whole star thread rating system was a little 6th grade, but there might be something to being able to rate sellers by thier performance...

    Most of us know each other, but sometimes we don't..

    Considering they are rating "the Ad" while the part or car is still for sale, I just think they are saying,... wow thats a good deal!,.. or wow that deal stinks !,..Not unlike a Joe Dirt Auto Swapper kind of thing.

    Why would you, after all this time on the HAMB, give two ****s about someones negative/positive rating? You know by now how some of the people on here live to sabotage someone's thread ,whether it be a cl***ified or forum related. Remember the vast difference in mentality between some of our members and others. Just my opinion.....By the way, I gave you 5 stars on this one.

    Yeah, these HAMB *******s gave me 1 star when I tried to sell some 87 Monte Carlo Rat Rod parts for $2000 and I bumped the add up top only twice a day. :D

    Guys - relax........

    You know what - in all the years I have been moderating I have not ONCE - NOT ONCE ever looked at the ratings of anything so to me it has no bearing on anything.

    Don't know why it is there but you know what ? - I would NOT sweat it one bit.
    I don't and my suggestion is that you don't either.

    Maybe the many who can't/don't the read cl***ified rules ( like looking at a National Geographic 40 years ago), find looking at the pictures and playing with the stars more entertaining........:)

    I wouldn't worry about the rating guys.

    I find it funny and somewhat pathetic someone would do that much typing over some little blue stars

    Not only immature and childish, but again I find it funny and somewhat pathetic that,.. After I posted this thread,.... some childish little coward, went back and rated my cl***ified ad's with one star,.... hiding behind a keyboard,.... what a man !,... you should be really proud of your maturity level.
