 Hey my ratings were great.... but I got really busy and did not get on here for a long time then I poped back in and they kinda sucked...I had not given any new advice so why would the rating go down? I dont know and i sure don't care...Tell them what you think....if they want to hear someone bemoan their situation and tell them what they want to hear...they should be talking to friends not strangers who tend to have this big ole honesty factor friends cant afford.

 What are you guys talking about? Ratings mean everything!! :) j/k I wouldnt worry about your ratings at all.. What one person may deem as excellent advice another may deem as horrible advice based on their feelings.. You can make some people happy all of the time, you can make some people happy some of the time... but you can never make everyone happy all of the time.

 We can't always give the answer that the poster of the question wants to hear, this doesn't make our advice wrong or bad just means it's different to what someone else thinks, but I feel that is the good thing about this site, being able to have many answers all with different opinions and to see the answer from different perspectives rather than just one.
I shouldn't worry about it, being on this site is about being able to give your advice and hopefully it helps the person posting the question in some way.

She is right on when she states that giving help and advice to others in need does purely, come from one's heart. Ratings should not matter, dear. If any Aunt's are answering questions on this site, just to get good ratings...they are helping for the wrong reasons. Helping people is not a popularity contest. You need to do what a lot of us do-ignore the ratings and try not to worry about this. Keep answering those questions, Ivanna. Your thoughts and opinions are important. Take care, hun

 Hey Ivanna,
I think that's a great q, because I asked myself that little while ago. My answer.. People come on here seeking advice, but they don't always like what we tell them. I prolly ticked a guy off with what I said in one of my recent answers, but Hey.. it's how I felt! After awhile your ratings will prolly even out like mine did. But either way keep on keepin on with what your doing. It's not you, it's people's oppinions.
