Map Thread Ratings... Pointless?

I have been with forgehub for quite some time now, although I may not have the most posts in the world, and I have noticed that ratings generally dont mean all that much. Here's my reasoning: With my map posts of recent date I have put in polls near identical or identical to the rating bar and the results are much different. Excluding my own maps I've noticed the same with others as well. This being the case I've asked why this could and heres my answer. People can't see the poll results before voting so ultimately might vote more according to what they believe the thread to be worth. Where as a rate bar can be seen ahead of time and one will think this map shouldnt have this many stars let me give it a one to knock it down some.

Anyways, whats your guys' take on this?
