Hey everyone. Im trying to create a way to allow users to promote nodes to the front page through voting, only I haven't been successful in finding an easy way to do it. What I have done is to create a list of the top voted items in views and turned that into my front page. The next step though is to remove the top rated nodes from another list, which is the "all content" that users access to read all the submissions. Is there a way to tell the filter to NOT display the top three items? I see a way I could do this by hand, which would be to take the top items every day and publish them to front myself, then when their time at the top has expired I could move them to an archive myself, but I sort of want this all to be automated. Any help?

If i'm getting your question right, you have a view displaying all content ordered by the amount of votes and want the top 3 not to be included in that view?
In views you can set an offset of 3, so it won't display the first 3 rows.
Edit your view: Basic settings -> Items to display -> Offset: 3

That should do it.

If you want to promote nodes that reach certain voting number on the main page you can acomplish this by using rules and custom tokens
