Thread Rating?
I was in C7 General section and I saw there is a thread rating tool activated.
Is this new? Is it only in certain sections?
What else can you tell us about it?
Thanks!

Looks like it's only in the C7 section.
But why was it installed? Who gets the real benefit from it? Just because a thread may have a poor rating, that could cause people to not read a thread and maybe miss out on some post that would contain useful information or help.
Some people think that rating tools may be valuable and others think they are worthless. Some readers of a thread may deliberately rate it poor or good simply because they want to screw around with the rating. That sort of thing could take away from the validity of the rating values.
But it would be fun to see in PR&C
