How do I rate a thread?

[tricky]

Read the instructions and I still can't see any way to vote.
What's the secret?
Is it a 'left click' on the thread? 'Left click' on the stars? 'Left click' on a particular word?

Can a guest vote?
Can members vote?
Or can only certain people vote?

Hi Tricky,

At the top of the thread is a dark blue menu bar which has a 'Rate This Thread' option on the right side (just before the Display Modes option). Click on this to open up a list of ratings to select (ie 1 star = Terrible, 5 stars = Excellent, etc).

I think any logged in member can vote.

Hope this helps!

Here is a pic of what it is like on my screen.

Is this what you have tricky?

[tricky]

Sorry folks - I have Thread Tools, Search This Thread and Display Modes visible.
The Rate Thread is not visible.
Am I a special case?
I assume there is some logic which only allows trusted people to vote?

Tricky - I also dont have the Rate this thread bar either.

Which is odd - because I had it a while back - and used it to rate a thread as excellent once.

Ooooh - conspiracy theory Have I had Privileges revoked already

Maybe the trouble makers have had it taken off them?

Maybe it's those people who hang out in the Upper Hutt BP station?

A troublemaker? Me?

I found that I could enable various options for myself in the User CP area under options. Maybe look there?

cant see anything in cp

Who is the site guru? - SarahK, Donna, Marc, Marcus?
Who controls what members can see and do?
Can we have a show of hands from those who can see the Rate Thread feature?
Who can't see it besides Avalon and myself?
Maybe there's a pattern which may reveal what the problem is.

Well, well, well.
I've just cloned myself as tricky2 and what do I find?
The Rate Thread is visible to me - tricky2
But it's not there for tricky.
So do I kill off tricky and become the new, improved tricky2 with Thread Rating powers?
Or do I keep two identities and pose questions to myselves. Hours of fun and I can even report myself as a bad poster.

Sorry, I can not see it either

Tricky don't confuse us, I've noted this on the moderators forum, and I am sure they will sort it, I am guessing it is related to the kuffle a while ago when people had access to things they shouldn't have had, a lot was reset then.

I have enough problems dealing with myself as Avalon. Can you imagine what my life would life would like if there was an Avalon2 as well. I shudder to think.
