How does a Thread gets Star Rating?

Hi,

I was wondering how to rate a thread and on what basis threads are rated. I see some threads that just had very few views and replies and still has Five stars while others with views and replies many times higher and yet not a single star :confused: More baffling when i move my mouse over a thread that has five star rating, i see vote was just ONE:confused:

When you open the thread, the thread tool bar has the following linksā€¦

Link Backā€¦Thread Toolsā€¦Search This Threadā€¦Ratingā€¦Display Mode

If you click on ā€œRatingā€ you can select the number of stars you want to give it. Sometimes it worksā€¦ like I just gave this thread a 5 star rating, lolā€¦and other times I get an error message :confused:

:slight_smile:

Sweet Pip,
Thank you so much for your reply and yes i just cannot help laughing :slight_smile: when i saw the rating few minutes after i posted the thread ! Thanks for the rating lol. Ok now it seems that the five star rated threads need not be necessarily ā€œStar threadsā€ just like my thread is it ? (With due respect to all those deserving star rated threads of course)
