Title: Remove topic rating.
Post by: Dutchy on August 27, 2012, 01:09:15 am: The 'giving stars to topic' is a bit wrong because if people like (or are in) a group or topic (mostly Groups and Families), they will give it 5 stars. And enemies of that group will rate it 1 star.. So... It doesn't really contribute to the forum much. Maybe only in Groups and Families.

Post by: SugarD on August 31, 2012, 10:44:07 pm: I was actually thinking about this too. Sharing it I can understand, but in a forum where negativity can influence user opinions based on personal and/or group relationships, it doesn't seem like it's a good idea to have a feature like this available because it can be very easily abused to make topics look bad that shouldn't.

I personally like those stars, would be cool if they were red :3

My reply is referencing a bit more than just group topics, though. Many users on the forum make topics that commonly get attacked, all because of who is posting it. That is not how the rating system is intended to work.

Post by: Allison on September 01, 2012, 02:02:24 am: Rating a topic is a stupid idea for the main part. If it was possible to change to certain topics as per user selection, it'd be better.
