Follow-up:
1. I have added a rating system to threads. The rating is in stars (1-5 with 5 the best) and it is found in the upper right corner of the thread. Please rate threads! It is anonymous and it will help the wheat rise from the chaff.
2. I have added a page with a list of threads with the most replies and the highest average rating. Of course, the rating list will grow as more threads are rated. http://sbo.sailboatowners.com/popular.php
3. I'm not sure where to put this in the menu. The Forums tab is already too full. New Posts isn't right. It could have a link under the one of the Forum categories, perhaps. What do you think?
4. I ran a list of the most viewed threads and surprisingly, it turned out to be garbage. I think those counts get corrupted by bots and crawlers; anything that hits the page will drive up the count. Among the top 20 were two threads with no replies, one was a simple member introduction and the other was even less. It didn't pass the eye test so I did not complete it.
Thoughts?
