I don't edit the ratings because if I did then I'd be doing exactly what the raters did - making an opinion based on my judgment.

I don't hate on people that do edit ratings. I've always been a firm believer of making the game you want to play. If you think Paul should be rated a 99 in speed then go for it. That's how you see him play. I'm no one to tell you what's right or wrong.

But, that's also why I get a bit upset when I see people hit the ratings so hard and criticize them. The raters are just making a judgment like you are. They are basing it off what they see.

No one would rate any player the same.
