Also thinking of making a rating of 0 (lowest) not count -- i.e., be exactly
the same as inputting no opinion at all. In other words, there would be a
way not to recommend to read something (naturally) but no way to recommend
not to read something. This way, _only_ positive things could be "said" via
the input. Negative input would be the same as no input. This would
effectively discard the ability to penalize someone for what they've posted.
It would be a loss of useful functionality, but overall, we're probably better
off if that aspect of functionality doesn't exist, since (a) few people are
relatively emotionless and (b) this is just a hobby, after all. We're here to
have fun, to do positive things, not to begrudge each other accidentally or
on purpose.
