OMG do you even remember our discussions about this topic last year??I'm happy to see this system go. The use of it is almost exclusively unhelpful and unconstructive.

VERY good point. Garva, or any SOE employee's posts shouls show on the DevTracker... or some other tracker.
As far as the star rating, I think that there should be a rating system where the Moderators can note folks who have had posts deleted or editied due to inappropriateness, trolling, etc. That way all of us can see if the person is consistently a "problem child" on the forums.

So thanks for rewarding my griever even more, as his work is now going to be permanently included in my account.
The only solution to abate this achievement is to remove having icons/titles based upon a popularity contest.

It wil change things on the "rank" system but no matter what they do I am sure the "rating" you got when under the star system won't count at all. I suspect when clicking a profile we won't see the "average rating" anymore either. So I don't see how it is rewarding your griefer by making the low rating he gave you "permanent". With the rating gone, there will be no more "rating based" (or like you said, "popularity contest") ranks titles and icons.
But I guess we will have to just see how the ranks pan out when the change become effective.

This is fine, as it is usually the way most forums work, but I'm guessing you may be asking for a posting frenzy. Not sure if there is a time limit between posts or a way to regulate this. Anyway ust my honest opinion.

2. Those of you with “star granted” ranks WILL get to keep the use of your new icons. From now on though, those icons will instead be associated with the rest of the “time and post” based ranks.
Your welcome to submit your feedback for future consideration but please keep it civil.
