    For some reason, the ratings are only 1 digit now (not a float number). For example it goes from something like "4.6" to a straight "5". Is this a bug or is this how the new rating system suppose to be?

    I was asking because I really liked the old one, I liked the difference of being able to tell from rating such as 4.2 from 4.7. With the current rating system, they will all be either 4 or 5.

    Hi

    Thanks for your question and to be really honest I "personally" have not noticed this change at all but I can think that its changed to streamline the voting process from decimal places.

    As in

    But I will mention this to the owners of the site for advice and feedback, BUT I personally do not think this is an error but more a streamline of the rating system as .x of a rating does not really IMHO mean much from a main number rate as a 4 or 5 star application would grab my attention over a 4.1 rated application.

    Again thanks for the feedback.
