New Feature: Message Rating is live!

After seconds of exhaustive testing, we've lauched our message rating functionality - If you are a logged in user and were selected this go round, you now have a few new images showing up in the upper right hand corner of each message (If you don't see the buttons, Stick around - maybe you'll get picked next time)

<img src=http://www.fatwallet.com/forums/i/icons/vote_neg_2.gif> Click on This icon to give the message a virtual "thumbs down" - once clicked it will change its appearance to <img src=http://www.fatwallet.com/forums/i/icons/vote_neg_1.gif>

<img src=http://www.fatwallet.com/forums/i/icons/vote_nul_1.gif> This is the default setting, and equivalent of a "no vote". If you are indifferent to a message, simply don't do anything. If you have selected a positive or negative vote previously, you will see this graphic <img src=http://www.fatwallet.com/forums/i/icons/vote_nul_2.gif> which you can click on to remove your prior vote.

<img src=http://www.fatwallet.com/forums/i/icons/vote_pos_2.gif> Click on this icon to give the message a virtual "thumbs up" - once clicked it will change its appearance to <img src=http://www.fatwallet.com/forums/i/icons/vote_pos_1.gif>

A couple quick answers before they are questioned:

  • You can't vote on your own messages
  • You can click all you want on the buttons, but you only your most recent click will be the one that counts
  • Not every category in the forum has rating "turned on".
  • You can hover your mouse over the thread/message rating to see detailed information about the numerical score and number of votes (at least with most browsers anyway)

    We're planning on deploying a filtration system within the next week that will allow you to set a minimum quality level for the messages you wish to see - we're also setting up some other filtration options that will enhance your fatwallet experience.

    This is the part where I normally announce a T-Shirt contest, and this is no different. Simply reply to this thread to get your chance to win! I'll announce a couple winners tomorrow.

    I think it is a good idea and people should be a little more patient.

    I wanna vote!

    that is cool... especially for replies. those that give all sorts of good info (like the 8250 thread) along with a filter = 100 replies instead of thousands to read through.

    interesting new feature... I wonder how this will change everyone's experience on fatwallet.

    Count me in.
