Can we bring back the ability to rate threads? I think we've matured as a forum and are capable of handling the responsibility.

Do they really serve a purpose?

Not bashing the idea, just wondering.

As mostly a lurker the thread rating system was awesome! It made it easy to find the epic threads on CP because if it was 1 or 5 star it was worth reading and usually a classic!

I also would be in favour of bringing it back- I forget why it was dropped...

I believe it was because some users were abusing it.

I haven't matured at all. Better keep it off.

I think someone had a way of flooding the rating system with a script... Could be wrong.

Naw, the answer is as simple as a lot of threads sucked and were rated badly.

He's right, it needs to be brought back.

For one reason and one reason only. We need to have the Tip your Server thread rated 5 stars.

I am afraid a lot of people are skipping that thread because they're tired of that discussion or assume it'll be filled with nothing Resevoir Dogs references.

Everyone on CP needs to be able to have the pleasure of stumbling on Springs1's posts and see the craziness pop right off the screen in hilarious fashion.

What happened with thread ratings anyways?

I've heard odds and ends about it, what I want details, usernames!

A new and dedicated thread about Overtime on 960 is the exact reason we need the stars back.

Didn't you complain about it before you went all diva, it's not like it wasn't provoked.
