Not able to "Like"/"Dislike" posts

I have seen others with the ability to "Like" a post. However, on both mobile and my computer I am unable to. SRC said it would be below the avatar and information, but I do not have such capabilities.

Is this because I'm a lowly Spartiate (even though I've been around prior to the 247 move)? If so is there anyway to change the setting so that everyone can "like" posts? Are there any other non legacies without the ability to Like/dislike posts?

OH NOES!!!

I can't up vote either.

I feel left out. Bogus.

It's turning out to be a bigger club than I expected.

Blame Noah.

But not that special, since SD was allowed to join. Although, he is definitely a member.

PM this question to poster RP McMurphy over on tRCMB.

Couldn't agree more, I just don't understand why some posters can and others can't and wanted to bring it to the attention of those who can possibly make the changes.

Touché

There were some unfortunate incidents early on with liking/disliking. Therefore such powers are now reserved to those who complete an ethics exam. PM Nigel to see if you can get on the list to take the exam. You have to pass with a 98% and the prep kit is expensive. I advise skipping the kit and just taking gHost's online class.

Not sure why this is the case.  You should see something like this:

EDIT: Screw it. I don't see the "like" button on my screen

Why did you pee all over my like button?

How do you even read the board then?

Old habits die hard I guess.

Websense blocks most everything for me. Even the icon's to reply with quote. I have to find the little white dot in the post to use them.

I can like posts, but I can't down vote. I'd have been sponsored and voted into the cool kids section by now if Guest wasn't such an ass hole. That prick is black balling me.

Guest is a jerk to everybody.

This usage was particularly funny to me.

Ah, I see now. You've got the site sideways, you'll have to turn it 90 degrees to like someone.

Also, this may be a Safari thing.

Are you:

1.)At work or home?
2.)Can you try another browser?
3.)What are you wearing right now?

Everything is functioning as intended. As part of the effort to discourage the dreaded "upvote posse", certain milestones must be achieved posters are granted the "right" to upvote. That's because some people think it's clever to register multiple dummy accounts for the purpose of upvoting every post from their main account.

The OP has simply not achieved those milestones. Neither has SD265, whom you all have to thank for the increased flood control.

Voting/points/reputation is all meaningless anyway, so who gives a shit right?

I'm on Safari 7.0.3 - works for me.

But we can still downvote, right?

That's because you have achieved the necessary meaningless milestones to meaninglessly vote. Congrats!

Cool - don't I feel special now.   

Ok thanks for the info Miser.

I see people lumping RP in with Rogue recently. I think I missed something here.

Thank God you're back. I clearly have no idea how to drive this thing.
