One feature I would like to see is a check box rating system so that even if no one responded, the poster could still get some feedback and not feel like the lyric was ignored. To spare us the embarrassment of having posted a turkey, that information could be made available to just the author.
Anyone who has been on these boards awhile are aware that some outstanding lyrics slide down the list without comment and we all know that some lyrics continue to bounce to the top because the author responds to every comment. Having a rating box would give feedback to the author even if know one cared to respond.

I'm just guessing here but the rating categories could be something like this:

1- this song needs a lot of work
2- this song has some potential but a rewrite is in order
3-this song has real potential but could use some tweaking
4 this is a good song and I would like to hear the finished recording
5-this song is radio worthy material
6-this is as good or better than most of what I hear on the radio
7.Find a publisher! Get a good demo because this is a hit song!
