Is it possible to rate a post on the Yahoo Message Boards using the star system?

Question

It doesn't appear as if the rating feature works. Did it ever work?

Answer 1

The rating feature works fine for me -- you simply hilight the number of stars you wish to give the post and then save your rating. You can filter messages so that you see only those rated 2 or higher, or you can turn this off. It also works on the Violation Notice Board under the "Forum" link in the upper right corner, but you'd better never give a Staff member a low rating because they know exactly who rated what and how, so you'll probably lose your account before too long if you attempt to hide a post by someone with "y_answrs" in their Yahoo! ID.
