    I LOVE the nerdy rating system in this forum. I'd say it's my favorite on the internets. Just being able to rate someone's post as "friendly" with an ewok face or showing my disdain with a sinister trolling sandperson brings me much joy. But I'd love to suggest two more icons.


    1. Nerfherder (Han) and
    2. Trap (Ackbar)

    The nerfherder icon would be appropriate for posts that are kind of funny but edging a little towards offensive or mean but not quite there yet.

    The trap icon would be appropriate for misleading information or a post that is encouraging fights/trolling etc.

    Anyhow...these are the things I think about when I get out of work...

    Love the forum and the post rating system! So much fun!

    Thanks! I think there would already be quite a few nerfherder ratings in the forums. :) I wouldn't count it as a negative rating, maybe a more neutral one, appropriate for when someone says something mean but has enough wit to pull it off-but it also warns the poster that they are edging towards negative territory at the same time.

    I like all the ideas for these that people come up with. I don't know if this forum template allows for additions, but they have changed a little over time. It's pretty neat, as long as people don't abuse it... and most don't.

    An Ackbar rating would be epic, but I'm not sure I can tell the difference between "It's a Trap" and "Trolling."
