If one takes the rating system as a judge of usefullness, I would be
inclined to rate MOC posts high if the creation was really worth looking
at because it was so impressive, or demonstrated some nifty technique or
something. I would be inclined to down-rate such posts which have broken
links, point to web sites which are really obnoxious, point to just one
small, dark, out of focus image, etc.
On the other hand, I'm mostly ignoring the rating system, so feel free
to ignore my opinions of how to use it :-) :-)
