why should I – you haven’t even rated one game

While I wouldn’t tend to put it as harshly as Orni, LD is built around the community and being part of the community is rating other people’s games. There are way too many games to rate and if everyone sat around and didn’t participate in voting, then no one would get any votes. That’s the whole reason the vote system prioritizes people who both need votes AND who have rated other games.

This is a bit difficult…

So I should be rating other people’s games, but not those of people who don’t rate any games themselves…

OK, I guess that is plausible enough… and 0 coolness really isn’t much!!! 😉

Yeah, I think I get it! XD
