    Question Thread "star" Rating

    Does rating a thread determine its order of appearance within a subject of other threads? As an example, a long thread with many replies with no rating versus a short thread with many 5 star ratings...which will appear first? does it correlate to moderation?

    It doesn't affect the display order, as threads are arranged by date of last posting. It's mostly a designation that members enjoyed the info in that particular thread, or found it useful.

    Highly rated threads often get considered for Sticky status.

    Thread ratings are largely underused.

    They really only work if the majority of people use them. Maybe we could get it to catch on since it's use has been brought to light?
