Hi everyone, This is not my first attempt to show my product to HN's audience, the previous ones were off the mark, hopefully that's because I hadn't provided any details about it. This time I will. Ratesome is a mixture of an Q&A platform and a message board. But I like to call it 'Search engine for opinions'. Here are some examples of what it is and how it actually works: https://ratesome.com/topic/Buying-a-used-2006-Nissan-Maxima-3-5-SL https://ratesome.com/topic/Buying-a-used-2006-Nissan-Maxima-... A person who wants to buy a used car created this topic asking for opinions... The overall opinion right now is -12 (negative), based on 37 opinions, meaning that people think that's not a great idea to buy the car considering the details provided by the asker. *A newly created topic starts with 0. A positive opinion gives +1, a negative opinion gives -1. Other topics of this kind: https://ratesome.com/topic/Replacing-2012-Macbook-Pro-with-2017-Macbook-Air https://ratesome.com/topic/Replacing-2012-Macbook-Pro-with-2... https://ratesome.com/topic/Check-these-winter-boots- https://ratesome.com/topic/Check-these-winter-boots- https://ratesome.com/topic/name-Ariel-for-a-girl https://ratesome.com/topic/name-Ariel-for-a-girl Here is a different kind of topics, the above mentioned topics are all about something personal of a topic-starter, these ones are of a more general nature: https://ratesome.com/topic/Bitcoin https://ratesome.com/topic/Bitcoin https://ratesome.com/topic/Online-dating https://ratesome.com/topic/Online-dating https://ratesome.com/topic/Pizza https://ratesome.com/topic/Pizza https://ratesome.com/topic/Morgan-Freeman https://ratesome.com/topic/Morgan-Freeman https://ratesome.com/topic/rainy-day https://ratesome.com/topic/rainy-day It can give you an idea of what people think on this or that at a glance, no need to read through a countless number of comments. But as an addition, all topics have a comments section for discussions as well. That's basically it. I really hope for your feedback/questions. Thanks.

Forgot to mention that the overall opinion can be 0 (neutral) too. https://ratesome.com/topic/Naruto https://ratesome.com/topic/Naruto 15 opinions currently, and the overall opinion is 0.
