Why are tiktokcels obsessed with “high,low,mid” in ratings

[cute]

something like HMTN (meaning high mtn) got mentioned 5 times in 2022, 2-3 of those being from the same user, a couple of times in late 2023(when looksmax blew up on tiktok) and then from 2024 but especially in 2025 it has almost a hundred of pages of mentions the shitty rating system of high low mid this and that HHTN MHTN HLTN is absolutely everywhere
insanely arbitrary and non-sensical
Why do tiktokcels love rating like this? How many of them could actually even elaborate on why exactly someone would be mid instead of high or low etc..

for them its a way of making sens of the ratings
most of greys don't fully understand how to rate so they just opt for this system

i dont doubt that people used low/high strong/weak this and that pre tiktok invasion
but it seems like a extremely more rare thing to be mentioned and it seems like a very loose addition to a rating, more so used when someone is uncertain about a rating
but for example, acronym for low htn (LHTN) has never even mentioned pre tiktokcels (mid 2023)
people act like there suddenly is objectivity or math behind these low mid high ratings
to me it seems like people trying to appear smarter or le better raters than they are

Never trusting 99% of raters

@ropemax

They just let anyone get a degree in face ratings nowadays

 

[WKW]

I get what your saying if you’re LTN you just are

But imo the high/mid/low gives a more detailed opinion on how a person can look, I’ve seen tons of LTN’s but one is higher than the other due to very specific features that are more prominent.

 

[LooksTester]

Just giving more detail only retards that care about being og bitch and cry about it

better percentile understanding

 

[cute]

better percentile understanding

this is already stupid considering how random even the percentiles are
Some people say mtn is avg 50%, while others say that actually LTN or le HLTN is average
some say htn is top 1% while others will say its top 10%
There is pretty much no objectivity to any part of this rating system and the details are completely useless

it's because rating system is retarded, the one i use completely makes sense

How is it nonsensical

It's just smaller variations of the standard scale?

its vague, most people dont actually understand what they are saying and its already a pretty subjective topic in the first place

If you could consistently sort people into these “low mid high” groups it maybe could make sense, but i still havent seen an instance where people unanimously agree
Every human is different and an individual or himself, if you thought details were actually important even “low mid high” isnt even slightly close to being detailed enough
But when every individual is so different its almost easier to sort them into bigger groups like just mtn htn etc (even tho its a retarded system to begin with)
When u add le low or whatever literally barely anyone ever agrees
But its an impossible task. When you already take a pretty subjective concept and try to make it into something purely objective obviously it will fail

It's not vague as it's literally more specific than the base rating

Your problem is with bad raters not the classifications

its specific enough to cause confusion and more disagreement, nothing else
And yes it is vague, as it makes no sense or any good contributions

Your problem is with bad raters not the classifications

The classifications are obviously dogshit, but you will never get “accurate” ratings due to subjectivity and biases anyway

 

[Gaygymmaxx]

, but you will never get “accurate” ratings due to subjectivity and biases anyway

Then just never ask for a rating at all

You're not making any good points tbh

yet you cant actually make any good counter point because you are an imbecile
Pfp checks out though

You're still calling a more specified rating system "vague" so you're low iq

Calling someone who is nearly htn, but still lacks some clear distinctions, "hmtn"

Is simply accurate. more accurate. You didn't make a single point just ranted about how tiktokkers don't know how to rate

Literally just depends on the person rating

You surely agree that if they are a good rater it's useful and more specific

So as I said initially, just the rater, not the rating

Peanut brain to actually post this retard thread

@ropemax

Numbers>>> these shitass terms/tiers wtv

 

[Mr.Proper]

more accurate

In theory, yes, but it's like upscaling/upsampling, getting output in higher precision from something that don't have enough precision for that.

 

[cute]

I didnt call it “more vague” i called it vague which it is.
Its like me saying that “I’ll meet you in China” is vague and you whining because its actually more specific than “I’ll meet you in the continent of Asia”
Both are vague, but again due to how subjective it is, it ends up more scattered and confusing.

So as I said initially, just the rater, not the rating

Can’t be a good rater, if you follow the rating system and the scale which are broken already

Forgot to make an argument besides "people use it wrong" as I said 10 replies ago

K bluddy keep writing paragraphs about why specified ratings are some how vague while comparing them to unspecified ratings

There is no logical argument for this idiocy as you've displayed

You understand that a “more specific” thing can still be vague in itself?

 

[Gaygymmaxx]

You understand that a more specific thing can still be vague in itself?

Of course

but you never offered an alternative so that is not useful to say

It's as though your implying because we can't rate within .0001 psl we shouldn't rate at all, which is stupid

You're gripe is with tiktokcels, not the system

And the system is well specific enough,

massive issue atm ngl you go into any comment section even if you post urself ppl call u ltn they have no idea how to rate no formula they don't measure harmony or dimorphism they just foucs on the negative features of your face and they don't even know the ideals of a face

@ropemax

because there are people who are higher than a 5 yet lower than a 6 their math puts them above average than a 5 but they have other factors that doesnt match up to a 6

so u rate them around a more specific tier like 5.75 similar to TRM rating

like low 5,high 6,low 6

'high mtn,low mtn'' are just that lol an easier way to be more specific for ppls ratings
