Message WingmanWillis P admin beers 1563 º places 1908 º 06:08 Fri 10/27/2017 Lots of bottle shops do show Ratebeer scores to highlight their better stuff. More so in the US but do see some in the Uk too.
Message Leighton P beers 33724 º places 1204 º 06:13 Fri 10/27/2017 Originally posted by cgarvieuk Originally posted by chriso Originally posted by SinH4 Still weird that the ticks count as ratings in the user rankings... I'd imagine that will be rectified. Joe's still working on this stuff. Clearly they shouldn't count as full ratings. Im not sure about that. I think if RB is to grow, and i think it needs to grow to survive, while we want to keep all the good things we have and build on that data, i dont think we want to put of people who want a more untappd like experience or make them feel 2nd class. RB is clearly ireelevant to so many people as witnessed by the number of Bars ive seen actually promoting Untappd, in a way ive never seen for RB RB could have done what untappd is doing. But it didn't. Untappd allows bars (for a fee, I believe) to post their tap lists on the app. This could have been a really cool functionality. But instead, we have the barely used availability function.

Thats more untapp promoting your venue. Im talking like Brewdog, heres whats beers doing best in colab fest based on untappd score and places in NY saying why not say what you think of our beer on untappd

Message Rasmus40 P beers 34463 º places 722 º 07:48 Fri 10/27/2017 Originally posted by SinH4 Still weird that the ticks count as ratings in the user rankings... Agreed. This doesn't seem quite right, but let's hope Joe gets to that shortly.
Message joet P admin beers 2900 º places 125 º 08:10 Fri 10/27/2017 Originally posted by SinH4 I have the conjecture that my ticks are beers I've also rated and therefore, I don't see them in the tick list. However, that must have been an accident that I ticked that beer. I would really like to delete those ticks... :/ https://www.ratebeer.com/user/324362/ticks/ Just click to delete?

This list is empty for me, on four different browsers on two different devices. Is it not empty for you? I can see the tick lists of all other users I've tried so far, though.

Joe, I really hope this is not how it's going to be.

Joe, I really hope this is not how it's going to be. Again, your actual ratecount is in your profile and will be reflected elsewhere around the site as I make the other updates, most Monday evening.
