Uncle_Tricky Posted October 27, 2001 Share Posted October 27, 2001 I'm not convinced that rating fellow posters adds anything to the site. However, the option of rating THREADS might be kinda fun and maybe even helpful. If, for example, you were in a surly mood and found a thread to be a repetitive rehash of some stupid subject that’s already been beaten into the ground, you could give it the ol one-star salute. On the other hand, if you found a discussion highly entertaining or informative, then you could designate the thread a five star classic. You could have the option of rating a thread as if it were a climb: * A worthless, rotten, mossy, chossy over-bolted pile of calcified bat guano.** A contrived, boring, eminently forgettable line. *** Interesting climbing on good rock. **** A challenging, entertaining climb on great rock. ***** Classic: A wildly fun, memorable, and thought-provoking adventure on excellent rock. There could even be an archive section where you could take a look back at the "classic" five-star threads this forum has generated since its beginning. (As for this post, I'm feeling generous, so I'll rate it two stars.) [ 10-27-2001: Message edited by: Uncle Tricky ] Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Charlie Posted October 27, 2001 Share Posted October 27, 2001 sounds like a good idea, but at 2:40 in the morning? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
