Make Someone Happy and Win a Patch


The ratio of views to ratings on any given Instructable are abysmal. Ratings encourage Instructable writers to write more Instuctalbes. I have 100 patches to give out to members who rate 10 Instructables, they have to be 'ibles you have not rated before now - so get back to me here and tell me you did it (I will believe you) and I'll send you a Thank You Patch (pictured below). This has the potential to make 1,000 'ible authors very happy.

I rated all 19 of your Ibles 5. If you don't have any more patches. It's okay. I would've rated most of them 5 anyway.
Ninzerbean (author) says: Apr 20, 2012. 7:05 PM
Thank you, but this is not about me, it's about rating 'ibles. I'm sorry that you thought this was about rating my ibles, I work for Instructables, that is why I have patches to give out. I hope in the future you will rate all the 'ibles you read. I will patch you anyway but I feel pretty sheepish about it.
BLUEBLOBS2 says: Apr 20, 2012. 7:11 PM
Thanks for the patch. I never new that you worked at Instructables. Cool! :)
blueblobbs says: Apr 7, 2012. 6:01 PM
I rated about 16 'ibles... do you have any more patches? If you don't its okay.

sunshiine says: Jun 22, 2011. 9:30 PM
He is so cute!!!!!!!!!!1 I will come back after I have rated 10 people. No 11 one for good measure. I will try and find those who don't have any ratings.

Goodhart says: Jul 10, 2011. 5:51 PM
I believe that was a spammer.....
sunshiine says: Jul 10, 2011. 6:17 PM
Yes, it was. I was told on another link. Don't spammers know no one like that?
Goodhart says: Jul 11, 2011. 6:34 AM
Many of them just try to get you "to their site" to sell you something, but some of them try to get you to their "infected" site.....
Ninzerbean (author) says: Jun 23, 2011. 3:00 AM
Thanks - he is from a quilt I made, you be patched my dear.
sunshiine says: Jun 23, 2011. 3:42 AM
Awesome! Thanks for the patch.
ostomesto says: Jun 28, 2011. 7:54 PM
I did it. all 10, well 12 actually. i lost count twice so i did twelve haha.
Ninzerbean (author) says: Jul 10, 2011. 9:41 AM
You be patched! (a little late as I was out of town).
sunshiine says: Jun 22, 2011. 10:09 PM
Okay! I made a lot of people happy! I had fun making them happy! I left comments and made them happy. I subscribed to a few also! This patch looks so cute!
Batness says: Jan 7, 2011. 5:50 AM
I always rate stuff, and try to comment too. :D I know it'd make me feel better to get some decent ratings, so I try to do that to others.

I'll be back after I comment/rate a few new 'Ibles!
Ninzerbean (author) says: Jan 7, 2011. 6:39 AM
Great to hear, you be patched!
Batness says: Jan 7, 2011. 6:55 AM
Thank you! :D
Batness says: Jan 7, 2011. 6:14 AM
I'm back! Did probably more than 10 just to be safe, and since I like doing it anyway. :D

(On another note, I've discovered that even though my cats are apparently too finicky for my first few batches of the treats I made using your Instructable, my friend's dog LOVES LOVES LOVES them! I added some lavender to a batch and they smell slightly better too! :D)
Ninzerbean (author) says: Jan 7, 2011. 6:57 AM
I'm impressed with your 'ibles after I checked them out - and subscribed, there is another forum thing like this one where you subscribe to 5 people and get a patch.
acidbass says: Nov 27, 2010. 12:23 PM
I have done it! and I have made a lot of people happy ( I rated 50 ibles 4.5)
Dr. Pepper says: Nov 26, 2010. 3:19 PM
I did it too!
100 patches this time?
Ninzerbean (author) says: Nov 27, 2010. 4:08 AM
Me 2 - you be patched again!
Randomguy65 says: Sep 13, 2010. 8:28 PM
I did it! :-D
Ninzerbean (author) says: Sep 13, 2010. 9:50 PM
You're done - thank you!
seabananers says: Aug 27, 2010. 11:00 AM
i just did it i hope there are some patches left
Ninzerbean (author) says: Aug 27, 2010. 11:02 AM
Was that fast or what? Thank you ever so much!
magiccowy says: Aug 23, 2010. 3:06 AM
Yay i did it. i'm going back and rating things i'v done or wish i had done
Ninzerbean (author) says: Aug 23, 2010. 5:58 AM
Thank you! - you are patched, I hope rating becomes a habit. I have to go check out your 'ibles now- they look pretty cool.
magiccowy says: Aug 23, 2010. 11:13 PM
Ah they're not that great. Mostly to the fact I write them instead of doing homework and i have next to no tools/materials. I want to make an instructable in the workshop at school which is pretty much my favourite place
Ninzerbean (author) says: Aug 24, 2010. 5:01 AM
You should get your teacher involved here - they have great support for teachers to use 'ibles in the classroom, there have been projects done on here that a whole school class did together.
magiccowy says: Aug 25, 2010. 5:09 PM
I could have written up the trebuchet we made in engineering last term but its dismantled now. Also my class only has about 5 people that actually do anything at all
knexsuperbuilderfreak says: Aug 23, 2010. 8:42 PM
just rated like 15 or more alot of them look very instering..
Ninzerbean (author) says: Aug 23, 2010. 8:53 PM
Great, you're patched, keep it up!
knexsuperbuilderfreak says: Aug 23, 2010. 10:49 PM
now ive rated like 20 some more lol
Nostalgic Guy says: Aug 23, 2010. 4:41 PM
I got carried away & did about 20 :-) I will be sure to remember to rate many more in future after all I would like others to rate mine.
Ninzerbean (author) says: Aug 23, 2010. 7:15 PM
Thank you, you are patched!
Wasagi says: Aug 23, 2010. 9:42 AM
Success, although I didn't catch the "You haven't rated before now", well, there are 10 more non-unrated instructables....
Ninzerbean (author) says: Aug 23, 2010. 12:23 PM
You are patched! Thank you even more for the mis-read.
Wasagi says: Aug 23, 2010. 6:29 PM
Hooray!
ChrysN says: Aug 23, 2010. 3:09 PM
I did!
Ninzerbean (author) says: Aug 23, 2010. 3:20 PM
Me too! You are patched and thank you!
TitanTechRobotics says: Aug 23, 2010. 2:48 PM
I rated 10! For some reason when I look at 'ibles I never think about rating them, but I will try to rate more often now. AI
Ninzerbean (author) says: Aug 23, 2010. 3:00 PM
You are not only patched but are in for some pleasant surprises...
TitanTechRobotics says: Aug 23, 2010. 3:04 PM
Thank you, I have never had an instructable featured before, and now I just got 4 within 5 minutes.  :)

Shadowman39 says: Aug 23, 2010. 2:41 PM
I just did it. I'm going to try to rate Ibles more often. :-)
Ninzerbean (author) says: Aug 23, 2010. 2:48 PM
You are a champ, thank you!
AngryRedhead says: Aug 22, 2010. 4:45 PM
More than 10! I'm definitely trying to be better about reading an Instructable and rating it. Baaah!
Ninzerbean (author) says: Aug 22, 2010. 6:19 PM
More than thanks! You are patched!
Kiteman says: Aug 22, 2010. 1:12 PM
Good thread - I'm not telling how many I've rated recently.
Hiyadudez says: Aug 22, 2010. 9:25 AM
I've rated them. Not just 10 random ones though, most of them that have inspired me in the past, and present =)
Ninzerbean (author) says: Aug 22, 2010. 9:38 AM
YOU are inspiring, you're patched!
zascecs says: Aug 22, 2010. 8:07 AM
I usually either rate 5 stars or dont rate at all...

...Anyways, I just rated 10.
Ninzerbean (author) says: Aug 22, 2010. 8:40 AM
You are now patched - thanks!
peguiono says: Aug 22, 2010. 7:49 AM
I did it! :)
Ninzerbean (author) says: Aug 22, 2010. 7:55 AM
Me too - you're patched!
kcls says: Aug 22, 2010. 7:21 AM
I just rated ten of them! Great idea, by the way. Where did you get so many patches?
Ninzerbean (author) says: Aug 22, 2010. 7:28 AM
Now, now, didn't your mom tell you never to ask a woman that kind of question?
dombeef says: Aug 22, 2010. 6:50 AM
I just did it
Ninzerbean (author) says: Aug 22, 2010. 6:57 AM
You're great, I just sent it.
dombeef says: Aug 22, 2010. 7:11 AM
Thanks!
Jayefuu says: Aug 22, 2010. 4:52 AM
I shan't do it right away, but I'll be back when I've rated 10 :)
dombeef says: Aug 22, 2010. 6:41 AM
Me too
