About "rating"

Sorry if this has already been asked but...

What are the stars and pins mean under the "rating" category??
(I'm guessing it has to do with the number of posts or something)

The stars are ratings by viewers. If you check under Rate This Thread, you will see the menu drop down.

The scales are ascending, with 5 stars being the highest rating. These are just opinions made by others, and not necessarily how many responses.

AAAAAHHHHH!!

Interesting!!!

So is the rating that you see an average of what everyone voted?
Can you see who voted and how many stars??

I still haven't figured out the "pin" symbol.

The rating is indeed an average of what everyone voted. I don't believe you can see who voted and how they voted, at least, not from a user's standpoint. I'm not sure what the "pin" is to which you are referring.

unfortunately no ever votes and if they do it is only like one guy. There are not enought posts for people to be too particular in what they read.
