I commented and rated quests after ending(s).But I deleted them.Because I think my comments don't provide one with useful information.

I comment on a quest once I think I can accurately gauge the quality of it. Sometimes, this is before Level 1, and sometimes, it's not till mid or late levels.

I usually wait until I'm well into the quest before I rate a quest, because this is the only way I feel I can accurately and honestly rate a quest.

[Exate]

When I did play quests, I'd wait until I beat it before rating. And, to my knowledge, I've beaten maybe only one or two. I never really played them that much.

[CastChaos]

I usually rate only after I beat a quest and try to provide a really useful rating. There was one time when the comment space wasn't enough long, so I needed to drastically shorten my comment. It was at Lost Isle.

BUT if I stuck in a quest because difficulty, I still play it (and comment on the too high difficulty level), as it was with MMDWR:DC. I finished HoD many times (lost count) but at first I didn't think I could finish it, so I commented before I finished it.

I don't remember any examples, but theoretically I also rate if I get bored by the quest at some point.

[DarkFlameSheep]

Hmm, many players rate before ending?

I rate quests before I'm done, as simply getting to level 3 or 5 tells something about the questmaker. It's a "deep" thing really.

[Eurysilas]

Well, I only rate quests that are recommended to me by someone I trust. I do this because, quite simply, my bar is too high for most quests. I'm one of those who expects cut scenes, good storyline, balanced gameplay, etc, etc. In short I DEMAND professionalism before I rate it. So far, there's only been four quests that I've decided I'll rate, and I'm obviously not going to say which those are here to avoid hurt feelings. One of those quests, though, as you can already see, is Hero of Dreams.

Bah, I'll not say anymore. I've probably already come off sounding like an elitist.

[Shoelace]

I beat the game before I rate it, unless it is so bad that I can't beat it. But I do usually wait to beat the game, which is why I haven't rated LI yet. But yeah, it is one of my pet peeves to see ratings on a game that people haven't really played. It bothers me a lot. >_<

[The Satellite]

I'm guilty of commenting on many quests before I finished them, and it's not for lack of skill to beat them. But I haven't rated a quest in a very long time, because I rarely play quests now.

[Peteo]

I hate it when people rate quests before they have finished them, or gotten far enough (that is, furhter than Lv1 you silly people!). But I gotta admit I'm guilty of rating quests before finishing them as well... but usually I give a 5 star rating to a promising looking quest to cheer those newcomer questmakers up, so I guess that's not as wrong as giving a 1 start rating to a quest you have only played 5 minutes.

[Twilight Knight]

I rate+comment on quest when I've seen enough of it.
At some quest that is playing untill the ending, but some while/after LVL1(for example) or even after the first few screens.

[Joe123]

I don't really rate quests because I don't play them much

I rate tiles and tilesets though, mostly just the new submissions to say what I think of them.
If I don't have much of an opinion, then I won't bother.

[ZebraStallion]

I rate quests after I play a little bit of them. Maybe the first dungeon.

[SpacemanDan]

I rate them when I've finished them. I've beaten a few, and have commented on very few.
