AniDB offers 3 different sets of voting levels:
The 10 level vote system can be quite hard to use, there are however a 3 useful rules.<br>
:*<b>10 levels</b> <i>- default -</i><tt> 1,2,3,[...],10</tt>
:*<b>19 levels</b> <i>- can be activated in your [[Profile]] -</i><tt> 1,1.5,2,2.5,3[...],10</tt>
:*<b>90 levels</b> <i>- there are no buttons to use those and the way to cast the votes is a bit hacky - </i> <tt>1,1.01,1.02,1.03[...],10</tt>
 
{{eyecatch|Note:|Even though there are 3 sets of voting levels they all still count to the same voting for the anime. Meaning there <b>aren't</b> 2 or 3 different votes for the anime!}}
 
 
===How to use the 90 level voting system===
This is a bit tricky as there aren't buttons for this and most likely never will be. [[User:Exp|Exp]] never wanted to increase the votinglevels to 90 levels in the first place. Though the db software doesn't care and accepts the votes anyway so you may use it, if you want to.
 
Copy the following link to the url field of your browser:<br>
<tt>http://anidb.info/perl-bin/animedb.pl?show=anime&aid=357&votea.rate=100&votea.ratenow=vote</tt><br>
You have to adjust the [[ID:aid|aid]] for the anime you want to vote on and the vote (the number behind <b>votea.rate</b>). It can be any straight number between 100 and 1000.
 
==Voting levels==
Eitherway what set you decide to use, there are in the end still 10 mainlevels. To make a proper vote there are 3 easy rules you should follow:<br>
:* First, try to use 3, 5, 7 and 9 in the beginning; the most used one is 7.<br>

:* Second, the use of 1, 2 and 10 is very rare.<br>
:* Second, the use of 1, 2 and 10 is very rare.<br>
:* Third, don't think of 10 as perfect and 1 as worst possible since those do not exist. Basically 0 and 11 represent those values and as those don't exist you can't vote for them.

''Additional to those 10 vote levels you can activate in your [[profile]] an option to get .5 votes. e.g. 1.5, 2.5...''
