Why did Yahoo take away the feature where we could give a thumbs up or down for a question?

Question

for questions, not answers. I know you have to be level two to rate answers. (this is an extra account anyway, my main one is level 3)

I suggested it on the board, will you give it a vote if you think its a good idea?

Answer 1

i didnt even know we could do that

Answer 2

They didn't. They have a disclosure at the front of the site saying they are tweaking the site and expect some quirks. So maybe thats what you saw. I can see me thumbs lol. Good Luck!-Rachel

Answer 3

I've been able to give the thumbs up or down on questions today, so I think it's working OK.

Answer 4

I myself don't know what you did,but i still have my buttons with the thumbs up and thumbs down.Unless Yahoo changes it when they came out with the Yahoo 360.that is all i can really tell you,unless you re-install Yahoo but don't uninstall it just re-install it o.k..Good Luck.

Answer 5

what are u talking about i'm looking right at the thumb up & thumbs down signs they didn't go anywhere

Answer 6

I looked at your profile and you are on level one, you need to be at level two to be able to give thumbs up and thumbs down.

Answer 7

They usually take away the features that make the most sense. If you go to the suggestion board, ask them to put it back. Obviously, most people didn't read your question completely.

Answer 8

they have not.it works just fine

Answer 9

Political correctness. Let's not offend anyone by saying in a public forum that their question is stupid.

Answer 10

idk. no idea  ! ! !

Answer 11

Maybe people were abusing it and just marking things thumbs down just because they did not agree wtih the subject or the opinion of the asker?
