AIBU to want to test this new AIBU voting feature?

So come on folks, who's got the option to vote? Is it live yet? Can anyone vote on if I'm being utterly unreasonable to want to see if this works? Grin

It works!

Bluntness100 · 18/06/2019 13:16

Someone did this yesterday, I don't think we need daily threads of people trying it.

LizB62A · 18/06/2019 13:17

YABVVVVVU especially as I'm not getting the buttons so can't vote.....
(I have seen them on other posts though)

Jemima232 · 18/06/2019 13:18

Yes, YABU.

Yesterday's thread on this subject was enough.

EarlGreyOfTwinings · 18/06/2019 13:20

Thanks OP, I didn't see yesterday's

People who don't like it can.. .scroll past your thread? Grin

EarlGreyOfTwinings · 18/06/2019 13:21

Yes, it works!

It's not as good as a vote on each post, but it's a great idea.
Will give a voice to the lurkers, the ones with things to say won't shut up.

BuzzShitbagBobbly · 18/06/2019 13:25

I have been wondering how/where I will see it, as I am one of the selectees.

I guess I didn't need to worry about it being obvious or not Grin

We really don't need another thread.

Couldn't you have thought of an actual AIBU?

ThatsUnusual · 18/06/2019 13:28

@BuzzShitbagBobbly I think everyone can vote.

The option to add a vote to your thread is only available to the Golden Ones.

two of which are wasting it

Jellybabiesarebabies · 18/06/2019 13:29

That's cool. I didn't see yesterday's thread.

Oh I see. Well I have whatever the option is ticked in my settings, so now I just need to think of an AIBU! Grin

Ifartglitterybaubles · 18/06/2019 13:31

It works!

Leafyhouse · 18/06/2019 13:35

Good grief, it's not like we all log on every day @Bluntness100!

If you could make it about parking and add a diagram too, please. Thanks very much.

AmaryllisNightAndDay · 18/06/2019 13:42

I can see the buttons but not the results. Who gets to see the results?

Eliza9919 · 18/06/2019 13:43

I've got it! Woo hoo Grin

Shame it doesn't work on the app as I only use the desktop site during work hours :(

MyCatHatesEverybody · 18/06/2019 13:51

I see you can change your vote as you go along, it's not locked in. Useful for all those drip feeds...

itscallednickingbentcoppers · 18/06/2019 13:52

YANBU and if I had the voting function I could have told you that without writing this pointless sentence!

RiftGibbon · 18/06/2019 13:54

I think I like this. You can add a comment if you wish, but if you want to just quickly assess U-ness, then you can click a button.

Amaryllis I could see the % of responses when I made my selection. Not sure if it works the same anywhere other than on a PC though.

AmaryllisNightAndDay · 18/06/2019 13:56

Ooh, I clicked YABU for the hell of it and there were the counts!

iwantittobesunny · 18/06/2019 15:02

I really have no clue about this system. I wanted to start a thread similar to the OP, for the sake of it, , but couldn't see the feature to choose to activate voting or not, so I didn't. But I seem to be able to vote. Not sure if I am included in this trial or not.

SilverySurfer · 18/06/2019 15:19

I won't vote and YABU.

RomanyQueen · 18/06/2019 17:41

I voted YANBU Grin

CastleCrasher · 18/06/2019 17:48

Oh I'm so special I got to vote. In reckon the system needs more thought though. Aibu is classic drip feeding territory, so we really need an updating count as the thread progresses...

Aibu?
Yabu 50% yanbu 50%
But, but....
Yabu 80% yanbu 20%
But hang on, what about
Yabu 99% sockpuppet 1%
