After you play in a game, you have the opportunity to rate the host. Host ratings give the community an honest signal about who runs great games — and help hosts understand how to improve. Ratings are permanent once submitted, so they reflect your genuine experience.

​
When ratings are available

The rating section only appears under two conditions:
  1. The game has started — ratings are not available before the scheduled start time.
  2. You are an approved member of the game — only players whose join requests were approved can rate the host. The host themselves cannot submit a rating for their own game.
If neither condition is met, the rating section is hidden entirely.

​
How to rate a host

Open the game detail page after the game starts. In the Rate your host section, tap the button to open the rating dialog. You rate the host on three dimensions, each on a 1–5 star scale:
1

Friendliness

How welcoming and positive was the host during the game?
2

Clean environment

Was the venue or field clean and well-maintained?
3

Safe location

Did the location feel safe and appropriate for the game?
In addition to the three star ratings, you can:
  • Toggle Would accept future games from this host (on by default) to indicate whether you would play with this host again.
  • Leave an optional private comment (up to 500 characters) with feedback only the host can read.
Once you submit, the button changes to Update your rating. You can revise your scores and toggle at any time through the same dialog.
Your written comment is private — only the host can see it. Star scores and the “would play again” toggle contribute to the public aggregate shown on the host’s profile.

​
What the host rating badge shows

The HostRatingBadge appears in two places:
  • On the game detail page, in the rating section header.
  • On a host’s public profile page (/u/:userId), below their display name.
The badge displays:
  • A filled star icon
  • The host’s average overall rating rounded to one decimal place (e.g., 4.7)
  • The total number of ratings in parentheses (e.g., (12))
The badge is only rendered when at least one rating exists. If a host has no ratings yet, the badge does not appear. The rating section also shows the percentage of past players who said they would play again with this host (e.g., “83% of past players would play with Jordan again”).

​
How ratings affect host reputation

A higher average rating and a larger rating count signal to prospective players that a host runs consistent, well-organized games. Players can see the HostRatingBadge before deciding to request a spot, so hosts with strong ratings tend to fill their games faster. The three rating dimensions — friendliness, cleanliness, and safety — are averaged into a single overall score. This aggregate updates in real time as new ratings come in.
As a host, encourage players to rate you after each game. A larger sample of ratings gives your average more weight and credibility in the community.

​
Ratings and the HostRatingBadge on public profiles

Any authenticated member can view your public profile at /u/:userId. Your HostRatingBadge is one of the first things they see. It summarizes your entire hosting history — not just a single game — so it builds over time as you host more sessions.
