Average stars

Révolution — Wed, 09 Apr 2008 07:17:56 GMT

Hello everybody,

I would like to know how many stars I exactly have.
When I go and look at my profile, it says I have an average of four stars. But is it possible to know more precisely what my average is (4.1, or 4.9).

Thank you for your answers.
Nicolas

Hi Révolution,

your current average is 4.1. You can see it as tip strip if your mouse is over the stars. For more information you can download the "Leader Board" file from "Laura F.". This is the link to the newest thread http://forums.ni.com/ni/board/message?board.id=130&thread.id=4398.

Thanks MikeS81,

Your link is interesting.

One more thing: Do you need to get to an average of 4.5 to be noted 5 stars?

Why can't I give stars? I use to be able to. (I think I heard you need to have posted XX messages to be able to rank people. If it is true, how many posts do you need?

Thanks again
Nicolas

Hi Révolution,

Yes you have to pass the 4.5 mark to be shown as "Proven". You can rate with a minimum of 50 posts.

4.5 to change from Trusted to Proven.

50 posts are now needed to be able to rate messages. See here for more details.

My habit is the following :

Good answer >> 5 stars
Other >> no rate

In other words, I give solely 5 stars ratings.

I agree with you JB.

I believe a very good answer is worth 5 stars. The one who receives it will be happy and trie to help someone else.

And I also believe that if you judge that an answer is crap, in stead of giving out 1 Star to someone that did his possible to help someone else, You should post you answer, which is certainly worth 5 stars!

Stop giving me 5 stars... You rised my average from 4.1 to 4.2 ... your going to get me to have the 4.5 rating average needed to be a Proven if you carry on!

I do it the same as JB. 5 stars or nothing.
