Abbreviated "r4r". A very stupid "agreement" to like/favorite or otherwise comment positively on someone's creation, art, guide, review, screenshot, etc. with the expectation of having the same returned. Very popular on Steam and other sites where user created items are posted.
Often times the content is so terrible, the reason for the rate 4 rate request becomes apparent. No one would rate the content unless compelled to or there was some benefit of doing so.
Steamuser 1: Rate my artwork and I'll do the same for you
Steam user 2: OK. I'm up for Rate 4 Rate
Comes from Nex R’s song “Rate Bloomer”. This phrase refers to someone who was not liked or popular beforehand but is now the top dawg and is now someone that everybody likes and rates.
It's what ignorant police and newscasters say to sound important when they should really say "speed", as in " the car was traveling at a high rate of speed."
These people will often say " at this point in time" rather than "now. "
