Spinball - I thought I sent you a PM about this...

Anyhow, to answer your question, you don't have to update the column in the user table, however the rating being displayed on the thread view will not be in sync with the rating on the Trader Ratings display page.

The actual Trader Rating is now based on unique member feedback, however the full TR page breaks it down into all feedback (and over time) so that people can see the bigger picture.

The column in the user table was meant as a means of bypassing TR calculations when users view threads. It is not used for any calculations of the TR page itself.

I'm not sure why, but I can't post any attachments in this thread, otherwise I would show you what the new TR looks like.
