		I don't rate people for 2 reasons: 
1. I'd only bother if I were going to give them a 5, or (maybe) a 1, anyway...
 
2. I don't know how to take it back... what if Suicide Junkie flies off the handle and becomes a homicide junkie?      Or what if a flamer I rated a 1 months ago has reformed and become an upstanding member of the community?

		Lately I just mostly rate people that are always posting nuisance polls in the forum.

		I don't rate people but like dbt1949 said, the poll won't let me post that.

		Yes, it would. But there is a distance problem.        
I suppose it could be done on a regional basis, though.

		I just did a test (which involved giving Geo 5 stars, which he deserves). There is no way, or at least no easy way, to change or remove a rating once you've given it. 
 
I think I'll be more careful in the future with the low Ratings (not that I haven't been up to now, but I'll be more careful).

 Correct, once you rate someone that is it. It cannot be taken back or changed in any way that I know of.
