Either something was great to them, or it was crap, which would make the "Everything is either 8-10 or 1-2" trend of rating things make a lot more sense. What they don't understand is 5 is Average, which means while it may be nothing special it's still probably not bad.
Yeah, that's definitely true with ratings over anything. If you rate anything less than an 8, maybe 7, and they like it, then you just insulted them. Imo 5 is basically just "it was okay, I just wouldn't recommend it".
Personally I don't get too thorough with rating things, so out of 5 is good enough for me. 5 - friggen loved it, 4 - great, 3 - it was okay, 2 - eeeeeeh, it had its moments, 1 - no.
