ratings

Tweet

I'm fairly new here, and learning all the ropes. I have not "rated" anyone, yet, I'm trying to learn more about this rating system. Even when I do start rating, I don't want to rate anyone negatively, unless they are downright rude and say really ugly things. I have no idea if anyone is rating me or not..is there a way to see if anyone is rating me? Or if I'm being rated at all? If I pick discussions I really enjoy, I guess I need to click on the positive box, as it helps them, dosn't it? Any ideas out there to clear up my muddled head?
