Did you know you can 'rate' threads? Down in the right corner there's a 'rate this thread' dropdown box so you can let people know how great or boring a given thread is.

This is really embarrassing, but...

I cannot find an explanation of what the various rating symbol represent, and I am not able to figure it out either, so...

Please...?

Vegard,

Are you talking about the icons? Since Doug posted this tip the site has changed and the rating option is up at the top (Thread Tools - Search this Thread - Rate Thread). The rating symbols are one through five stars with explanations next to them, and I reckon that anyone could figure *those* out.

So, my best guess is you're looking at the icons that appear in the box headed "Post Icons" when you're posting a message? If so, and if your browser supports it, you can get pop-up descriptions by hovering your mouse pointer over them for a few seconds. These aren't particularly informative, though, and really the icons are more decorative than anything else.

Ah, I changed to Netscape and it supports "hovering with the mouse"

Safari doesn't

Thanks, Leah!
