5 Star Rating System

Total votes: 9

We now have a five star rating as you can see above or within the picture below.

Vote honestly and fairly, or not vote at all. It's your choice.

(I hope someone with better wording skills will fix this post for me *wink wink*)

It can/might have something to do with an automated promotion process, for example. 15 4 star posts with more than 20 votes each might automatically elevate you to "trusted member"

For now, its a whole bunch of nothing. But it allows for future site upgrades.

i see that, but what does voting DO. Other than showing that someone likes/hates the thread/op
Does it give wait to featured articles? if the thread has heavy weight on zero stars, does it get buried and/or deleted?

I have absolutely no idea... I just know it's there... And because no one pointed it out, I thought I better do so...

Maybe an Administrator would better answer your question mate.

Sorry for the lack of knowledge.. hopefully the following pictures of Mario World gone Z-Day will make up for it...

Ok, good to know. I'll still keep rating, just 'cause.

Just like the points system was! What a coincidence.
