>>6396645I’ve never been a conservative rater, so I don't know what you are talking about. I have no qualms about giving high ratings. If it resonates deeply with me or I think it is cool on a profound level, I will not hesitate to give it a high rating. To refrain from giving a high rating in such circumstances because "I have been giving a lot of high ratings lately," sounds pretentious and like a betrayal of one's feelings. Are you really conveying your heart if there are "rules" and "restrictions" in your rating system, desu ne? I also do not subscribe to the notion that being super conservative with high ratings somehow increases their value. Those people come across as contrarian and not very frank, like they are afraid to "enjoy pro-wrestling too much". I wish for my ratings to reach the hearts of the people, and to do that you must be true to yourself, like Meltzer-sensei. I have absolute confidence in my ratings.
Also,
I see this general still hasn't learned after so many years that thread abbreviations aren't capitalized, because they follow the naming convention of board abbreviations (all lowered cased). It should be "/stardom/". Hard to recognize this general as canon until that issue is properly addressed. OP has disqualified themselves from basic human rights for keeping up this farce for so long.
