Not Ranked     
Post

There is already and has been for a long time a thread rating system on this site. Look in the lounge and you will see a couple of threads with 4 stars by them which is the highest rating for a thread. So if you want to know if a thread is rated all you have to do is look and see if there are any stars by it when you go to that Forum.

However this does not show the option to rate all threads in many Forums. So I don't know if it is based on number of posts to a thread or how Brent has that set up.

I agree. I am a member of and mod a couple of other vBulletin sites and the thread ranking is a far better choice.

I am also an administrator and moderator on a couple of sites that have nothing to do with cars and I finally took the Thread Ranking off because a Thread with a couple of posts would suddenly be ranked as a top thread. We had a high threshold set, but some members would get together and just vote for a thread no matter what was in it. Same for the post ranking, so how do you propose to eliminate this? I finally disabled both ranking systems because they weren't being used correctly.
