YouTube Ratings
This article is not for dumping YouTube videos in, not at all. You can help by not adding unnecessary videos or downvoting previous videos so they don't fit. |
Want to rate videos for Youtube? Then take this handy test to work out what all those stars are for!
In a world where kids today see things in black and white, Democrat and Republican, Emo and Ganguro, Atheist and Christian, there are only two ratings people give, 1 and 5. But now you know how to rate, let's see what the ratings mean.
1 Star
A video receives 1 star when the peanut gallery particularly hates it. It could be a picture of a kitten being crushed, or a 12 year old whose parents just bought him an electric guitar murdering Nirvana's "Smells Like Teen Spirit" (PROTIP: It's not that hard to play). This is the most common rating for a video. These must be watched for their sheer comic value.
2 Stars
Your 2 star video is not completely awful, but bad enough for the majority of people to rate it 1 star. These may be terrible vlogs, attempts by old media to appeal to the younger generation, or something deeply unpopular, like Scientology, or a member of Anonymous doing what they do best - acting like a faggot. Avoid.
3 Stars
A video with 3 stars shows either an indifferent or polarized audience. Videos which elicit apathy are usually tl;dw vlogs or music videos by middle of the road rockers. Videos which polarize the audience include shit by atheists/christians, talking about Dawkins/God, and circle jerking their idol. To be avoided.
4 Stars
4 star videos are getting there, but lacking that certain something that pushes them to five stars. Usually contains a subject that everyone likes, such as tax refunds, kittens, decapitations and enemas. Don't know if want.
5 Stars
Lastly there are the five star videos. These videos are recognised to be epic in some way or another. You must watch every single one.
