I don't care that much about the star ratings, but as a computer
question, I'm just trying to figure this out. Maybe new members are
given the ability to rate with half stars now but not old members?



Idiot. what is the average of a set of numbers? Is it always a
whole number?

When it isn't, they round up or down to the nearest half figure.

Hell, there may even be third stars in there, but you are too blind
to see them accurately.

Do you still watch your TV on a regular 4:3 set?

(No, wait--
Where did that mine's-better-than-yours even *come* from? There's no connection to the rest of the post, it doesn't even make SENSE!) 0_-
