I’ve just looked at the forum Strength sports, and was wondering, why the hell has every thread some stars.
I mean I know what that means, I just don’t get it. All topics, except for one-accidently this (in the strength sports) thread has no replies yet:)

I have nothing against those stars, but IMO it just silly, giving 4 or 5 stars to a thread with information already posted.

I always thought those threads with stars have some really good info, and don’t want to upset anyone, but hell, all threads except one have stars.

OK, I’m done. Wasn’t trying be an asshole, just my observation.

Word. 5 stars for this.
