Title: Thread rating
Post by: Sandwich on October 22, 2002, 10:20:41 am: Just a headz-up at a vB feature rarely used around here. I think it would really improve things if, when you ran across a thread that made you think something specific - whether "This thread sucks" or "wow, awesome ship here" - you give it a rating! Good or bad, doesn't matter - just rate away! :)

*Goes to give this thread an one*

Post by: Stunaep on October 22, 2002, 10:59:04 am: never found much use for it. There are a lot of other features that show the threads popularity (replies, views, everything that is said in the replies etc.)

It's not specific enough to give us a real feel of the thread, and if every thread had a compulsory rating (or if everyone did it voluntarily) they'd all end up averaging out around 3 or 4 anyway.

Post by: Stealth on October 22, 2002, 12:26:57 pm: yeah but see i wasn't actually kidding... i was going to actually rate it 'worst'... but then i thought that Sandwich would probably check the thread ratings (as only admins can :p) and see that i voted worst, and then he'd smite me :D

****, I'm not...

Thunder, give me 5 votes (in rating and polls) and I'll be happy. After that I would even rate threads. By the way, how many ratings does a thread need?

Post by: Stealth on October 22, 2002, 12:47:37 pm: i THINK that it needs two people to rate it before it actually shows the rating... not sure though :)

Hmm, got none yesterday, but now indeed, I get one... but 4, no.

Sorry for that, I didn't know, but thanks for visiting the site, I've now eaten 26 brains. :p
