In my opinion, a rating should be combined with a review or a short comment. Allowing compulsive rating without any rules or limits makes the rating system itself worthless.
For example, if I'm not a fan of Primus, then I can give 1 to all their releases without explanation, and that's ok?


Who says there aren't any rules?!

Compulsive rating?! I don't know what it means.

Rating an entire discography a 1 star is rating abuse. Same for rating it 5 stars. Because both things do not make sense.

with "compulsive" I meant in bursts... a lot of ratings during the same day, too many to be objective.
In any case, if you are happy, I'm happy.

Just a suggestion:

only rating a maximum of 3/day
rating and review no limit

Simple, no?
