Star ratings

[TheDestroyer111]

After I rate a thread with a star rating, I can't see it's actual star rating without logging out. Suggestion is to make both your own, and the actual average ratings visible while logged in.

Hover your mouse over the thread rating after you've rated it to see the aggregate rating.

I'm guessing this isn't a thing on mobile?

I guess not. It has to default to showing one or the other, so the idea is that a user would consider their own personal rating more important than an aggregate one.

Still, it would be cool for mobile users to be able to see the average rating without logging out and in, which by itself is harder due to touchscreen keyboards being smaller than the actual keyboards. Who in Squad maintains the forum software?

//EDIT:  how can you not use the star rating properly its too easy?

People actually use these?

When I see a 1 star thread I assume that some guy was proven wrong and didn't like it, not that the thread is bad. And that's when I notice it at all.

There are a few volunteer admins (of which I'm one) plus Squad's IT person, ManeTI. What you're asking for is out of scope though, it involves modifying the forum software. If you really care about seeing average ratings more than your own on mobile I'd suggest not rating threads yourself.
