good job Mr. Coderator,

but I noticed that most of the threads go unrated, most of the hot topics as well.

Gotta click those rating buttons, then ;)

here's another suggestion, when certain topics are read and you are in one of the forums, you know when there are five grayed out stars with a question mark, for all those that have been read by you, there can be a drop down list with the 5 stars so you can vote without entering the topic

un necessary work, it only takes a second to get in the thread and vote without having to post ;) why vote on a thread based on the title anyways ;)

i said you can only do it if it's you already read it, plus it will get ppl to vote more as it stands out and is a lot faster than seeing the grey stars with a question mark which most ppl get used to very quickly and don't give a second look

Topics marked as read and unread aren't stored in such a way that we can really do that, unfortunately. However, we should be adding them as an option when posting (so you can vote and post at the same time). I also want to see about voting without having to refresh, but I'm not so sure about that one yet.

I was wondering how thread ratings are calculated. if someone votes a 1 on a thread, can the thread get a 5/5? Is the average of the total votes rounded off? what do you guys think about having it rounded to 1 decimal place (instead of just diplaying 1,2,3,4,5)? Also, wouldn't it be better to lower the number of minimum votes to 3 or even less? If people agree/disagree with what they see for the thread, chances are they will vote for them. we mainly have stickies that are actually voted on... just my two cents.
