Is the 'rate this thread' option working?

thanks LL. looking forward to getting the thread ratings working again. perhaps the reason that ed's experiment with thread ratings wasn't very successful was because of the fault. let's hope we're given another chance when the next version of vbulletin is released.

Careful now.
 
:confused:

It's not allowing anyone to rate the thread apart from the person who started it. How is that useful?

It's not useful in the slightest, but we are being slated for not using it.
It was working just fine when you started three threads but couldn't be bothered to add a rating yourself.

Your rabble-rousing cod-outrage over a feature that is so little used that not a soul has complained about it passing away is truly a painful sight to behold.

Haven't you got anything better to get worked up about?

Err.. no.

It worked just fine for nearly two years. But no one used it, or cared about it.

it can't be that painful, this thread has got 4 stars.

If it's not useful why are you so keen to see it? Surely you pre-judge? And I'm not sure "popular opinion" is, or ever has been with you.

It looks from here that you're the one getting worked up.

The rating feature (if it was actually working then) was available on 3 of the many, many threads I have started- I don't think I can really be blamed for missing it at the time I started those threads. Obviously you can blame me, but then you'll twist any figures so they support your arguement.

The hard facts: 400 threads in this forum and just 2 with ratings. Two!

The sole active thread with ratings was clearly visible as it was on the Apple thread which has remained on the front page of this forum for well over a year.

The hard facts:

Onket: 415 threads started, 3 in this forum. That's less than 0.008 percent.

:facepalm:
 
There have been a total of 376 uses of thread rating so far.

BTW, I think it works now. Don't go crazy.
 
So why do you think no one bothered to use the ratings system after it was clearly announced and discussed, and remained visible for nearly two years? Any ideas?
Why didn't you use it? Why doesn't anyone use it? It's not like this is a quiet forum or anything, or one where people don't have strong opinions or post up interesting threads.

Because it was poorly advertised.
 
Just to explain- I did that thread to see if there was any option to add the option to rate the thread when you start it.

For the record, there wasn't. It happened automatically. I was about to ask for it to be locked, so thanks for doing that for me, editor. :)
If you waste any more of my time today with pointless threads and FAQ-breaking tags having a go at me, I'll be banning you for 24 hours without further discussion.

I'm truly sorry about the tags. Won't happen again (as it is with everything you warn me about).
