Well perhaps you want a star also? But who owns that data? You, jackburton-ga, Google? My friend if stars were the only things in life for persons, we would all be in trouble. Furthermore, just the fact that you take your time to commnet on this isssue and the fact that I now have to take my time to answer your comment is sick. Perhaps another questons? Does jackburton-ga really own his stars or ratings? How did I acquire the stars to give out? Were the stars really mine to gove away orwere the Googles? Are these "Google Police" or "First Amendment" issues? 100% of nothing is nothing Something of someting is something. According to eBay spokesman Kevin Pursglove said the company agrees that the ratings are important and claims they are proprietary but says the ratings belong to eBay, not the sellers. If you or anyone else feels the same, maybe you can go to ebay and purchase "Google Stars & Ebay Stars from me "gottahavejesus", or just look up in the search area within eBay "Google Answers Stars " or Ebay Stars" and then "Whammy", givea negative feedback and perhaps even send me the star(s) or half star(s) back to me, give them others or keep it yo might need some. My kindness regards, Condoleeza | |

Hello condoleeza-ga, When you signed on to the Google Answers service, you agreed to adhere to the Terms of Service of the site: http://www.answers.google.com/answers/termsofservice.html a set of 14 provisions covering liability, confidentiality, payment protocol, refunds, and blah, blah, blah. Though not explicity stated, I think the use of GA can fairly be construed to include the 'star' system as well -- you are granted, by Google Answers, an option to post anywhere from one to five stars as a way of indicating your pleasure (or lack thereof), for a particular answer. The stars are absolutely yours, to use (or not) as you see fit. But the stars are also the property of Google Answers, in the sense, that they can presumably opt to eliminate the star system, if they so choose. It's sort of like buying software. The software is yours...but it's also the software company's. You can run it on your PC as often as you please, but you can't copy it willy-nilly and pass it out to your friends without running the risk of incurring the wrath of Big Brother Software, Inc. Welcome to life in the Internet Age! Now...how many stars to I get? Cheers, little ears. pafalafa-ga |
