i would like to be able to recall ratings that people have given, both positive and negative.. sometimes i get a rating and by the time i look over to see who it was and what they said the pop-up slides out of view..

wouldn't it be great if these notices (and what the ratings were) could be re-called, so you could see who said what and who rated you and how?!?

for instance, you get a neg rating.. you don't realize it until you look at your own profile.. now you're left wondering who did that and why.. with this feature you could find out that info.. and then you could ask them why they did so..
or maybe someone gives you a pos rating, but you don't know who or why or what they said.. wouldn't be nice to thank them with a pos rating in return?

ALSO!!! .. i think we should be able to take back ratings.. what if you give someone a neg rating by mistake or for a misunderstanding.. now they could ask you about it and you could take back that neg rating if you so choose..

i've been thinking about this for weeks now and i don't see how it would really be all that hard to implement.. also, they could either auto-delete as they are individually viewed.. or simply make them into an inventory item that could be kept/deleted as we see fit?

Not a bad idea. It costs us L$1 to give or change a rating, so I'm sure it is as easy (or easier) to track like a gift or a sale. If not an indefinate list, maybe a list at least as old as your transaction history.

Ack, I'm totally against this one... I don't want to be reminded about all the bad ratings a day I get... Sheesh, who wants to review 10+ neg ratings a day just to see who they gotta pick a bone with?!? :P

Naa! Just kidding! :D

Actually, I'd love this feature. Often, I like to give back a positive behaviour rating to people, just to say thanks, and sometimes, I've missed it, and kinda feel bad. I know they're saying good job on one of my builds, but I do like to say welcome :D But I first, my 16k< memory please :P
