Not starting a topic on the self-confirmatory nature of celebrity (go for it if ya want), but on those sweet little yellow globs of ratings goodness.

Is there a standard definition of what means what? One star could mean 'here, have points', but I've been taking them thusly...

* I don't get it ** I get it *** Made me smile **** Made me giggle ***** Proper-job laugh-out-loud funny

Is they about right, like?

Yes, but it's boring.

*I wish this person would take the hint and give it a rest
** Nice bloke, but this sort of standard's never going to blow anyone's frock up, is it?
*** Anyone know the point of giving something three stars? Me neither.
**** Yeah okay, but NOT giving this five stars because of something you said last week
***** Guys, guys, listen to this...

a bit difficult to get anything to work perfectly when the foxes are guarding the chicken pens
some people can go from being a complete embarassment to brilliance from one sub to the next....others are infuriatingly, annoyingly, brilliantly consistent throughout.
some people are brilliant at chat but may not necessarily post many subs - I value and enjoy their contribution as much as the subbers
but stunts has just about nailed it

Sorry, I read that as 'Can we improve on Stunts' definitions.' My apologies, Stunts. Bless you.

How about giving the forum a nice 50's feel with just "Hit" or "Miss"?

No need to apologise, Plucky.

Love Chigster's 'hit' or 'miss' suggestion - doesn't it kind of, well, solve the whole scoring issue? But then what would we moan about?

Some slight modifications !

* I'm glad I didn't post that crap.
** Good idea, would have been better if Mary or Des had written it.
*** Great, but won't 'over-score' it or it'll knock my sub out of the Top Ten.
**** Bastard, I wish I'd thought of that.
**** Double Bastard, they probably stole it from somewhere else.

4 stars to stunts' suggestion. Can't remember what it was she said last week, but just in case.

I love it when you make comments like 'preen, preen', Stunts. You did one, some time ago along the lines of 'waddles, self-importantly to the front'. There are not many things that make me really giggle on here, but those always do. xxx
