    There are certainly ways to praise an Uber driver beyond a five-star rating, like basic notes or some cash at the end of the trip. But what if you want to make it patently clear that you liked a particular aspect of your ride? After this week, it'll be easy. Uber is introducing a compliment system that lets you supplement the star rating with a badge that reflects what you liked the most. If drivers are great conversationalists or go out of their way to help unload your bags, you can let them know.

  • Wings Over Atreia: The anti-rant

    Admit it: Whether it is born of a desire to vindicate yourself using the opinions of another or because you just sharpened your claws and are eager to rip said opinions to shreds, sometimes you just love to read a juicy rant. Love them or leave them, we all have opinions and tend toward sharing them, from superstitions to sports to Aion. What make rants so delectably special are the passion and power behind them. Unfortunately, this is not a rant. In fact, this week's Wings Over Atreia is going to be an anti-rant. No, that does not mean I will rant against rants because I am opposed to them (that would still be a rant, not to mention they can be cathartic at times); rather, this will be the opposite of a rant. Yes folks, I am going to do something radical! Trolls, cover your eyes: I am going to give a compliment. And not just any compliment -- I am going to give praise to NCsoft's customer service! *gasp* What confluence of events in Aion brought me to this? Take a peek past the cut to see for yourself.
