Cant down vote

Anybody know why some comments cant be down voted and others cant be flagged?

I wanted to give this a thumbs down, but it wont let me.

That’s a good question. I just tested them here and they work on this post. So far I haven’t seen a post with a thumbs down. Did you try it on other posts?

About the flag, I THINK if someone flags a post and it’s cleared by an admin/mod then no one else can flag it. Not 100% sure though.

I’ve never seen the option to give a thumbs down.

If you hover over the thumbs up icon like you were going to give a heart or a thumbs up do you see the option for “100” or thumbs down?

Thanks, I will try later. For some reason sometimes it doesn’t show the reaction options when I hover over and it’s happening right now. Is this a common thing or is it just me?

I don’t think it’s ever happened to me but maybe other people?

It’s really strange, I can still like it normally but when I hover over it just says “Like This Post” or “Remove This Like” my cursor doesn’t show in the screengrab but it is hovering over it. I’m on Windows 11

I think that’s Java script that makes the pop up happen. Maybe see if you can update Java?

How would I go about that?

Java has nothing whatsoever to do with that issue. JavaScript is another language entirely.

Maybe a popup blocker? Try another browser.

Turned out I had to update my browser, It’s working now!

It worked now. Must be a waiting time between down votes.
