freestyle Posted March 16, 2010 Report Share Posted March 16, 2010 I was looking for something similar the other day, but gave up. Is there a way to list the highest rated topics? (using the thread rating stars) Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
softwareNerd Posted March 16, 2010 Author Report Share Posted March 16, 2010 I was looking for something similar the other day, but gave up. Is there a way to list the highest rated topics? (using the thread rating stars)I don't think the software has any way to do this. Also, here on OO.net, people rarely rate topics. For instance, there are only five topics (out of thousands) that have been rated by more than 3 members. Out of curiosity, I ran a query to pull up topics that had been rated by 3 or more people and had a rating better than 4, and this is the meager list I got. What to do with the idiots who agree with us? Oh dear. They may have murdered AGW 476 Rome, 2008 Washington D.C.

Interesting... I figured the ones that got rated probably didn't have that many votes, but I didn't think it would be that few overall. Too bad. Most forums software doesn't have very good rating systems... usually it takes a mod to get one that people use. Thanks! Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

brian0918 Posted March 16, 2010 Report Share Posted March 16, 2010 (edited) If we could rate individual posts, that would be nice, since the quality of posts often varies greatly within a given thread. People would probably be more willing to rate in that case, and it would be easier for us to pick out the highest rated posts to be featured.
