I actually don\'t mind getting low scores. I think it\'s a refreshing change that a website has users who rate based on how useful they think the snippet is, rather than how well coded it is. Most communities use the latter method.

My snippet that reads audio information from files gets an 8.6 and my hotlink bans snippet gets a 6.5, while my snippet that plays audio streams only gets a 6. I think the stream playing snippet is by far the most useful but I respect and understand that not everyone shares my opinion.

Instead of getting angry about receiving low scores for an obviously well coded snippet, just accept that your snippet is being rated by users on how useful they think it is, rather than how well it is made, and judging by the amount of simple questions asked on the forum I\'d say not many users on this website can even use your snippets! (Which would explain low ratings.)
