The voting option on FWR.

Has this now been rolled out to all sections?

I've always been able to vote in AIBU but can't in FWR even though clearly the option is there.

I don't think this is a helpful addition for this board especially if regulars here can't actually use it. The strength of this board is nuanced discussion not AIBU style polls.

I think it must be yet another of MN’s IT glitches. The vote option doesn’t appear in the actual thread, and one OP has said they didn’t opt for a vote button.

There was an option to switch it on or off (default on) when I made this thread.

Perhaps it is a glitch. I find it distracting when trying to read the front page.

It's very distracting. Hopefully just a glitch that will be resolved soon.

It was a glitch and is being removed according to a thread on Site Stuff.

although one interesting thing about the voting is it often gives an idea about the number of lurkers - people will vote even if they don't want to comment. I often check on the numbers on an AIBU vote out of nosiness!

It seems to have gone now. Glad it wasn't permanent.

Thank fuck for that. It was very annoying.
