    I believe yes. It is still a "rating".

    It doesn't matter if the rating is neutral, it can be classified as rates abuse if used incorrectly. That's all I will say

    Its a neutral rating so not really.
    You can spam it yea (and of course that's a problem yakno) but it causes no harm like negatives would on your profile.

    I would still consider it rate abuse if you spam it, even if it is a harmless rating.

    Simple solution to this, remove this unnecessary rule. Only punish for intentionally boosting.

    It's a cookie. You can never have enough cookies.

    i think if you like spam rate it it's probably abuse, but that's probably only if you give a specific people a ton of cookies or rate like pages of cookies...

    Rate abuse is the abuse of Ratings. Any Rating.

    Abuse is "not using it the way it is intended".

    Now this may be the point open for discussion. How is the Rating "Cookie" intended to be used? IMHO it's supposed to be a funny, unserious Rating. So it must be used in a funny, unserious manner. Spamming is unserious as can be. But it is annoying and corrupting the Rating System. So it would rater fall under the common sense rule.

    Conclusion: You cannot rate abuse it, but spamming it would collide with other rules.

    :tso Rating "Cookie" with the legit serious Intention to give someone a Cookie would be a blatant case of rate abuse and should be severely punished:t
