Rating Recipes

Kate · Posted: Sun Oct 09, 2005 12:56 am Post subject: Rating Recipes

Recently we have had some trouble with bots running ratings on our recipes. I would like to ask my readers to rate recipes that you have tried. Post a note about why you didn't like the recipe, or what you liked about it. One man went through and gave a lot of our recipes poor ratings. I sent him an email and asked why and his reply was that they were foods he didn't like! I explained that was not a basis to bash a recipe.
Guido and I pride ourselves on providing the best recipes to our members and guests. Maybe I'm being a tempermental chef, but this is my baby!

Ciao...Kate

This what happened to me when I poorly rated a recipe:

First i've been smacked like this Frying pan

Then i've been trash

Aha! by the way.. she has a brand new Rachel Ray's Furi chef knife ......
Guys and gals, you have been warned Razz

he he. i dont think you're being tempramental at all, if someone gives all the recipes a bad rating then when people look at them they wont try the recipe. i have a bad habit of not trying recipes that have bad ratings because i think ill be wasting my ingredients. you dont need people like him giving things bad reviews.

I can usually look at a recipe and tell if it will be good or not. But a bad rating does tend to put me off. When I test recipes I sometimes rate them myself depending on how good they are, just to get people started.
