Tim Dorr Veteran Posted December 2, 2004 Author Veteran Share Posted December 2, 2004 y dont u take away the highest and lowest, in case sb sabotages. i mean calculating. 585026459[/snapback] There isn't a wide enough spread. Taking off one 1 and one 5 really isn't going to do much anyways... Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Wannes Posted December 3, 2004 Share Posted December 3, 2004 i also like the idea of the buttons hovering when you select a certain rating Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Slimy Posted December 3, 2004 Share Posted December 3, 2004 i think that threads like this one https://www.neowin.net/forum/index.php?showtopic=212684 deserve either no stars or something different... Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Code.Red Posted December 4, 2004 Share Posted December 4, 2004 I like the idea of rating threads, but I don't like that you have to click what you want to vote, then wait for the "Thanks for voting, please wait while we transfer you" page to finish (or click on the link, but that's annoying :p ).. It might not seem like much time to most of you, but it really makes me not want to vote on a thread when im done reading it.. maybe if it was an iframe, where when you clicked it, it would only refresh the ifram and not the whole page? then we could vote, and still read the thread at the same time.. i dunno, just a small little annoyance that really bothers me for some reason.. :blush: Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
OPaul Posted December 4, 2004 Share Posted December 4, 2004 FYI, voting still takes you back to the first page. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Frank Posted December 7, 2004 Share Posted December 7, 2004 I agree something is better than nothing but I don't like empty stars. I think the grey background looks kinda cheesy. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I think the grey background looks kinda cheesy. 585056179[/snapback] That grey background is IE's inability to properly render transparent PNGs. I'll have to convert it to a GIF or PNG-8.

San Diego Posted December 22, 2004 Share Posted December 22, 2004 Excuse me as I have not read this entire thread but are these really needed? As I look around the forum, I see very few "rated" threads. I think it takes up good space on this great forum. Just my .02 cents. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

As I look around the forum, I see very few "rated" threads. I think it takes up good space on this great forum. Just my .02 cents. 585144391[/snapback] Then I guess teh obvious next question here is: Are you rating the threads? It only takes 5 for the results to show up. I rate just about every thread I read, if you do too, then we only need 3 more members to get an official rating on the front... Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Even if they were all rated, it wouldn't really hinder whether I read a thread or not. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
IceDogg Posted December 23, 2004 Share Posted December 23, 2004 Not to beat on an old subject, but more people might vote if it didn't take you back to the first post in the thread once you did. I find myself sometimes not voting because of this. This is only meant as a helpful suggestion. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
davemania Posted December 24, 2004 Share Posted December 24, 2004 Why don't we just show the rating with just one vote ? there really isn't much statistical difference between the first and the fifth vote, furthmore, it'll probably encourage people to vote. We can assume that the author will probably give themself a rank of 5, if the next reader strongly disagrees with that rank, then the rank will average out in time.
