Here's something to do...rate all the threads on the first page of this forum. Just scroll down to the bottom, and on the left side is a drop-down where you can rate each thread from 1-5 stars.
I believe 5 stars is good, 1 star is bad. Use your own criteria for rating, but some ideas are:
1-too controversial => 5-very family friendly
1-boring => 5-exciting
1-too wordy => 5-very concise
1-too touchy-feely => 5-solid technical
1-hijacked thread => 5-stayed on topic
Of course you can turn these around if so inclined...
1-Too dull => 5-Fight! Fight! Fight!
1-raises blood pressure => 5-relaxing discussion
1-empty platitudes => 5-thought out answers
1-too technical => 5-very romantic
1-narrow focus => 5-went with the flow
Don't tell us what your criteria are, just be consistent and go rate them. It would be interesting which topics end up with 5 stars in everybody's rating system, and which end up with 1's.

Where will the rating show? Does it just average or will you get a rating showing for every rate????
Ratings (average I guess) are shown when you look at the forum, viewing all the threads.
I already voted for all :)

I thought I had bumped my head when I returned here and was seeing all those stars. :confused: :eek: ;) :D Just goes to show that when I stay away a little while and come back, someone has messed with this place. :Z :J
I found the reason why I don't see them is that I only go to "view new posts" and the stars don't show up there.
Bump...time for a new ratings binge...
