Why must you push this too far? One vote really won't change anything. 4 must be a standard, and one vote really can't push that standard so far that it will be a 2 and a half, or whatever you wanted it to be. For that matter, if a theater voted a movie 4 stars, and you voted 3, do you really think that would matter, unless others voted the same or lower? By reading your responces, it looks as if you're taking matters too personally.
When I see a Mordac strip, it sets my teeth on edge. Given the rest of the "Dilbert experience," they come across as disingenuous. I sympathize with Mordac. My experience in I.T. has been more like this:
---------------------
user: May I use this laptop that nobody else is using?
Mordac: that's over 20 years old, has a 286 processor, and 16-tone greyscale video, weighs 176 lbs, and has no battery. I won't even ask where you got it. I WILL ask: Did it ever occur to you that nobody was using it for a REASON? AND: What happened to the $2000 laptop we gave you last week?
user: My kids use it to watch videos.
---------------------
For every abuse BY IS/IT, there are thousands of abuses ON IS/IT by people who are aggressively stupid. Other than small irrelevant details about the specs of the "unused" laptop, I have had this exact conversation on more than one occasion.
....OK, I feel better now. end of hissy fit. I hope the mashups reflect this. I may post 1 or 2 of my own.
