Are there details on how these forums work?
I am honestly wondering what the various parts of the forum interface actually do. For example, the up and down arrows to the left of a forum post. Is that similar to upvote/downvote on reddit? What does a high score mean? Does it become trending then? Are the up and down arrows available on the destiny companion app (I haven't found them if they are) And what is the point of clicking favorite on a post? How is that different from the up or down arrows? What are the qualifications for highest-rated? Up votes? Score? Number of favorites? I normally avoid interacting with forum-like sites (just read them) but Destiny has made me try to change my habits. So I am just looking for a quick tutorial or "how to use" explanation. What are the consequences for high or low scores? Do they rise to the top? Or is it just a quick indicator of what the community thinks of a specific post?
And sorry if this is posted somewhere else, I tried some searches, but didn't come up with anything.

1 Reply[quote]Is that similar to upvote/downvote on reddit?[/quote] Yes, it affects whether the thread is trending or not. [quote]Are the up and down arrows available on the destiny companion app[/quote] Upvote is disguised as a little star when you tap a comment or post, and you can downvote OPs by tapping their post, tapping on the three dots, and selecting "dislike." [quote]What are the qualifications for highest-rated?[/quote] A very high volume of likes, and I believe comments being liked in the post also affects this. [quote]What are the consequences for high or low scores?[/quote] If it's a high scoring post, it hits trending and highest rated. If it's low scoring, you'll only find it in latest. Bungie is still working on the system quite a bit, and I don't work for them, so I don't know all the details. Hope I helped though :)
