0 is only available to Trusted Users (see [here] to know what that is); the other four are available to all users. 0 and 1 are used to rate a comment "trollish", i.e. disruptive of dialogue, or insulting, or really inappropriate. Such ratings should not be used to indicate that you disagree with the comment. 2 should be used for comments that are borderline, or ambiguous, or unnecessarily aggressive in their tone even if they make valid points. 3 should typically be used for a comment which is interesting, but not so good as to deserve a 4. 4 are used to reward informative or smart or otherwise useful comments.

I guess a 1 could be warranted if you felt this was really a racist comment. In the long run, we're all dead. John Maynard Keynes
A knee-jerk, idiotic reaction. Did you even bother to read my post?
