I edited the T2 templates and set the one I created as my default, but the change is not taking effect. I’m trying to remove the text under the stars so I deleted the fields in %RATING_TEXT%… any idea why its not working?

Once you create new template you must use it. For instance:
Standard Rating Block [SRB] uses Standard Ratings Text [SRT]. So if you make new SRT template, you need to make also another SRB that will use newely created SRT. And finaly, you need to select new SRB as rating block for posts on post tab on settings panel. Or if you use custom functions, use template id of the newly created SRB.
