board rating

[Camille]

Hey guys, i was wondering how do u determine what rating a thread gets if it gets one. What criteria do you use?

 

[dimopoulos]

I personally rate it based on the context. Funny, informative etc.

OK, IS THERE (whoops) is there any else involved in that process, or just based on your opinion. I'm not trying to be rude.

Well when I vote, I just go to the bottom of the page and choose the number of stars I think the board is. I'm not sure if the more stars you choose the more the rating goes up.

It has to do with the stars as sk says. The more stars the higher the rating but it is totally personal opinion.

For those that have used this forum software in the past in other boards, you will know that the rating system extends to the members as well.

Because those ratings are personal opinions one could easily mistake the ratings with knowledge, so we closed that feature to avoid confusion.
