Rating threads

[fox-myers]

Does a thread need to have been rated by 2 or more users before the rating shows up in the forum table? I just rated an ER and went back to the forum table but didn't see any stars in the rating column. :confused: I started to think that maybe vBulletin didn't get my vote, so I tried to rate the thread a second time. It told me that I had already rated this thread. So now I'm thinking that on vote isn't enough to vBulletin to show a rating on the thread.

Just curious.

From the faq item "How do I rate a thread?" (click the faq button at the top of any page).
Once enough votes have been cast for the thread rating, you may see a set of stars appear with the title of the thread in the thread listings. These stars reflect the average vote cast, and can allow you to quickly see which threads are worth reading if you are on a very busy board with a lot of threads.
It doesn't say how many votes is "enough", but if you hover your mouse cursor over the stars for any rated thread it will display the number of votes and the average rating. Some of them say "2 votes" so it seems enough=2.
