whats with everything having 4-5 stars?

somebody going crazy with rating everything? reminds me of this guy i use to work with. he would high light everthing in the tech manuals. with that much highlighting, nothing stood out except the few things he would not high light.
what was so bad is that he used the black highlight

even my post got several stars, i know there something wrong there.

Way back in the stone ages of DOS 3.3 I made 35 mm slides for presentations. Back before everyone had PowerPoint and video projectors. We charged by the line of text. 80% of the slides were variations of blue backgrounds with white & yellow text. To highlight a line we would make it yellow. Several customers just insisted I highlight every line. I just shook my head and made the slide the way they ordered.

It is amazing that we would get 30 to 40 bucks for each slide. We often had a huge backlog to slides to make.

Rating system here is useless as long as it continues to allow the author to increase their own ratings........IMHO
