The other day I saw a 4 star review that said "I never rate 5 stars" and then had a bunch of positive things to say. Looked at their other reviews and, sure enough, there were a ton of 4 star reviews that started with "I never give 5 stars".
I'm still irrationally angry about. Like, why?! Why fuck up the rating system? Are you worried about star inflation?
Probably the "nothing is perfect" mentality, which doesn't understand that 5 stars or a 10/10 doesn't mean something is perfect because, as they said, nothing is. All ratings are there to be used!
If you give them too many free stars they get lazy and stop trying.
Yep I just had the worst sushi of my life from a place with 4.4 stars. Best place in the city is 4.8. Definitely star inflation
Shit like that is exactly why so many places don't use stars anymore.
