So much about this BS. BTW, I just counter balanced with another 5 stars, now it is a 4 stars, that is fun

Man Bun, you must have devistated that guy. I mean, there he was with five shiny stars and you came along and ruined it for him. But as we now know, he can just start a new thread, title in 'who stole my stars?' annd then give himself five new ones. But one still has to watch out for various rodant breeds, especially the Texas variety. N

I just notice now, there are way too many 5 stars rating. I think I just unleased some 5star motivation, now everybody is rating on their own. Good job, bun.

I must say, this is going to be blinding with all those yellow stars. Oh well, five stars for everyone
Now to the issue of the thanks button. How can I thank myself too? I really want more thanks. Sorry, I'm just not taking this thread seriously enough

sungrove, was about to thank you since you asking for it, then realize there is NO thank you button on off topic thread. Reggie is sneaky.... and upon counting stars, I just lost one, that must from the ......


I will get up a big thank you on whatever your next post, how about that ?

I think it would make more sense to have only a single option - "I rate this thread highly". When the total count reaches some value a single star will appear (this is still very good, as most threads have no stars at all), at the next threshold another star appears and so on. 5 stars would mean that a _lot_ of people thinks the thread has high value.

Thats what it looks like, but in fact, one person can set the rating into a 5stars.

Well, that was my point exactly.. today you can rate it 1 to 5 stars, and if you set 5 stars (and nobody else sets anything) you'll get a thread with 5 stars. I described a different setup, it would look different (I'm not sure what you meant by 'Thats what it looks like'.. it doesn't look this way now)

I echo what your said, that the 5 stars appears a collective work of more than 1 person, the appearance, but in fact, its by one person, and even worst, it is by the OP.
