People Rating

I just got this idea from Rogans latest podcast..

Do you think there will be a way to rate a person based on your previous experiences with them, in the same kind of way Yelp rates restaurants based on previous experiences?

Think of the possibilities! We'd know a shitty person just by viewing their rating, we'd know a good, honest person based on their ratings! This shit seems genius to me!

Would you need someones consent for something like that?

You could rate things like;

-how honest you think they are
-how trustworthy you think they are
-how dependable you think they are
-how hard working you think they are
-how intelligent you think they are

etc.

Eventually you're left with an overall rating. I'd think something like this would be useful for employment and relationships, it would make you work towards bettering yourself as a person, who would want a terrible score? I think it would have the same sort of effect as the popular farmville game had on facebook, the more positive stuff you do the more positive stuff you'd want to do.


The only flaw I can see right now is people could lie about you, just like they do about some restaurants on Yelp, but the more ratings you had the less each individual rating would affect your overall score.

What do you think about this idea?

Well, it kind of throws not giving a fuck what people think about you out the window, which is something we try to teach kids as a way to combat peer pressure.

Among other things.

I think it's a shit idea.

What people think about you happens in all aspects of life, regardless of what parents teach their kids, that's just a fact. Right now it's totally hidden and up to you to find out on your own, what this idea proposes is that instead of that, it's already out in the open.

Which would, in turn, make most people give a fuck what other's think about them. Which I think would stifle not just creative, but everything. What people think about us is the last thing we should be worried about.

Thing like this have happened on the internet, namely in terms of peoples negative attributes and in regard to school children. It proved catastrophic for bullied children.

I think it's a silly idea myself.

We are social creatures. So, giving a fuck is instinct. In fact, I think the asymptote of "no fuck given" is not a good thing, as it might promote dissociation, even solipsism. We need society, both as individuals and communities. Jmo. cn

^ I think the website is called 'the dirty'. A note of caution to mind your head, the iq bar has not been set too high.

I don't think it's a great idea. I'm not from this social networking generation and I can't stand FB. I really value my privacy, and it seems it is trying to be taken away from us at every turn. I don't experience things in the same way as other people: I don't like the same movies, same music, same entertainment, and same recreational activities as others, most of the shit I hate rates high among them. They would probably rate people in the same manner and where they would think some peeps are dope, I would likely be bored and annoyed by them. Plus, I'd hate to see what they say about me ;)

You only have to look at how misused and exploited credit reporting is to see how this is likely to go wrong. Will a landlord refuse to rent to me based on my social score? Will I be passed over for a job if my profile suggests I do not fit in the social atmosphere of the workplace? Will there be groups I can hire to improve my rating? Will it effect my chances of adopting children? Would I be inclined to stay in a bad marriage because a divorce would hurt my score?

Am i right in thinking a court in the US recently outlawed employers from requesting facebook and email login details? As you say, it would not be good. However nice a guy i may or may not be, most folk know me as a happy go lucky stoner so to speak, i would not get a phone call or interview for a job or new house again. And also as you say, how would it then be kept free from fraudulant "reviews". We all know how even something so trivial as ebay is these days a crap shoot in terms of whether feedback was valid or just from some program that bought a 50 cent "orange zester" or such off the seller 500 times.
