    Default Why did my rating go down on SM?

    I just got done having an exclusive session with one of my regulars, and like always he rated me 5 stars during the show. I went back to my main page afterwards and noticed that instead of 5 stars showing, it went down to 4. I did a search for myself on SM main site, and its showing up as four stars there as well. Why the heck would this happen? Is it just some weird glitch?

    OP, did you have a few poor ratings before today? Last week, the week before that?

    I noticed that sometimes it can take a couple days for the ratings to "take", so the drop may be attributable to some poor ratings you got a few days ago.

    If there arent any bad ratings in your recent history, then it doesn't hurt to send an email to support. Keep in mind that the "poor ratings" need not be 1s... When u have 5 stars, even a bunch of 3s and 4s can drop you down to a 4.

    Also... Don't worry too much. I went from a 5 to a 4 too at one point, and now I'm back at 5. It didn't affect my earnings either way, and it's recoverable.

    I'm not sure how frequently you go on cam, but I'm sure the lowered rating won't last long. I make a point of telling my guys how much I care about ratings. Almost all of my regulars give me five stars every time, so the one star creeps don't effect my actual rating. I still hurts my ego, but no one else can see it. When I first started camming, I got one 1 star rating, and it seemed to keep my rating down for the longest time. The guys don't care. They can tell that you're awesome.

    I always say

    "Please remove one star rating on xx-xx-2013 by member xxxxx. This rating is not a reflection of my performance." Or something like that. Email them enough times and they will remove it. Don't give up! It's all about getting through to the right SM rep.

    I think the OP is asking why her overall rating would drop after receiving a 5 star rating. Logical question. Like Jessica mentioned, if you got some lower ratings last week it can cause your overall rating to be lower... b/c sometimes it does take a while to catch up.

    Also, how long have you been on SM? Ratings drop off every 90 days, so it's possible that ratings older than 90 days were keeping you at a 5 star rating. However, unless there was a significant drop in your ratings in the most recent 90 days, it's unlikely that you would drop from 5 to 4 instead of just 5 to 4.5

    (I've had some very bad weeks but still have never been lower than 4.5)

    Also keep in mind that the fewer ratings you receive the more each individual rating affects your overall. If you get six 5 stars and a 4 star, you're now at 4.85 for the day. That's not so bad. But if you only have one 5 star and one 4 star, that's 4.5. It's amazing how much those 4 star ratings can really hurt.

    Lower ratings such as 1s & 2s will really sneak up on you too. Let's say you work really hard and get eight 5 star ratings, but then some guy gives you a 1 star. Now you're down to 4.55 already. Your day-to-day ratings may not look that bad, but when all those 5 stars from the first 90 days are no longer there and you're left with a few bad ratings, it does add up fast.
