I would love to see a forum that all five star treads get bumped to. That way instead of having to sift through all the forums for great threads, I can do one stop shopping. Also, that would help us from missing really good threads or getting to them really late in the game.

We already have a forum that only contains 5-star threads. NVG.

Voted 4 stars.

To answer Chocky's question, it's 8. I know this because it took a lot of gimmicks for me to get the "Hottest 4Ler" thread to show up at 1 star.

I'm pretty sure 4L had something to do with that.

I just noticed that 2 stars equals 'Bad' for the first time.

hmm, it seems a good idea at face, but what will happen is the ******s in certain forums will just vote threads they think its funny to push as 5 stars, and we'll end up seeing a lot of those.

However, thinking it through, what may then happen is other users of the 5 star forum will then see they're terrible, add 1 star votes, and only a few of those will push it off again.

I kind of like the idea. The thing is, the 5 star threads would also need to stay in their home forum as well as be seen in the '5 star forum'.

I don't know if any of this is feasible, btw.

It seems like a good idea for the advice and avatars forum IMO

click on the clickable "rating" and it will do it for you. The same can be done for Views and Replies etc.

I like the idea. I am sure there are many good threads I totally miss due to I don't follow all forums. When we had DBG tour bus I got to see other forums, and still go back to some of those. Or sometimes I listen to the Poker Cast and they will talk about a thread I will go and check out. I also like the idea ofkeeping the 5 star thread in both places.

many forums have a locked forum where mods post HOF threads.
I really hate how on 2+2 I gotta do 15 minutes of searching for a thread if I don't have the link saved somewhere. Alot of times I never find it.

So many epic gems in BBV4L, BBV, OOT, and NVG.
