I personally never really believed in not giving someone/something a 10/10 because there is always room for improvement. Yes, there will always be room for improvement on anything but if I am happy with something I will give it a 10/10. If something is 10/10 it usually means that the company or individual is always working on improvements anyways so I don't mind giving it.

I give 10's but they're only good the moment they're issued. They hav no lasting value because I know their #1 competitor is on their heels creating a better version the momont I rate them. It's tough to stay on top forever!

People are so harsh about 10.

I often give tens when I feel they deserve an applause, a high five or a gratuity. I like to encourage and reward above & beyond performance.

I will give a 10 rating but that usually has to do with superior service or if I really love a product. There is always room for improvement and things can get better, but that doesn't always impact my appreciation for and use of the original item. For example, I really like and will continue to use my Galaxy S9+ until it becomes painstakingly slow or I have the need for something else. 

I give 10s in customer service ratings when the person went above and beyond and made my day or took initiative to do something instead of passing me off to someone else.

I rarely give 10s. If I truly think something just could not be any better (in my opinion) it gets a 10. I don't believe people or products should get a "10" just for doing what they are supposed to do. A 10 represents something/someone that is excellent or outstanding.

Things I rate on a regular basis - books have a 1-5 scale. Lots of novels I start and never go past chapter two, I don't rate them poorly, just don't review. If I enjoyed the ride or stayed up all night to finish the book, it deserves the highest rating. What else do I rate? a few on yelp - and I give 10's per say or 1's

I give a "10" when I am totally satisfied with the product or service. To give less is not fair for a product or person that or who has performed above expectations.

Could there be a better performance? You would only know if you experience it.

Do you give your best effort on a consistent basis or do you only give 90-95% and what rating do you think that you consistently earn?
