Thread Rating Stars Misleading

[Tams 20]

the thread rating Stars are misleading.

 

If the thread is bad, you get 2 stars !!!

 

An Average thread gets 3 stars !?!?

 

I think the graphics should be like this:

 

Excellent = 5 Gold Stars

Good = 3 Gold Stars

Average = 0 star

Bad = 3 Red X

Terrible = 5 Red X

Being thusly dense, I had never even noticed stars before.

How does a thread get stars?

I wont be able to change the format of the rating but can change the wording around. Anyone have any preference?

[BlowFish 10]

Does anyone bother rating anything but exceptional threads? I would simply have one gold star, or maybe two. Good and exceptional.....actually I would probably not have ratings at all though I guess its kind of expected on forums.

oh no... don't change the words. That would upset all previous ratings.

this is not a serious issue... ;-)>
