I don't know that I'd agree with the "set up to encourage" part. I don't
think RB *or* BA are encouraging anything beyond enjoyment of beer and
the rating hobby itself.


The BA "beer karma" stat certainly encourages volume. I'm
not certain how that's different from "ticking" when it comes
to the bottom line.
