Yeah, I've seen that some too. Not as much as it used to be though. I've actually received messages (some private) asking for the stars. I'm not always the most proper chap, but I found that crass.

It has been discussed ad nauseam and some changes did take place like the way the points are allocated and the removal of the very public "Top Ten" on the main page. But I don't think much more will happen on this. I'm not positive, but I think there are also some issues regarding it from a personal standpoint; nobody likes to see their ideas trashed.
