No, that's not what I meant. Sorry. What I was asking was that if we voted when you weren't giving FP, are we going to get the credit for voting? I went through to every rating page a few weeks back, but you weren't giving credit for it. What I was going to ask was if we voted then, is it going to count? Not for FP necessarily, but just to be added to the list of voters.
Like I said before... it was disabled previously because of abuse. The bar is an indication of your rateus points so if it is off you will not have any rate us points to get (if it is disabled then how will it record or give you points while being off?). If you wish to vote and do not care about getting FP then simply use the Rateus page without exchanging your points for FP which is actually a separate feature.
I like the new rating system - so that you know which links are important, and that you get points for each one you visit, instead of each time you visit the page.
Only one thing - For all of those Music/cooking/Family sites, when you click on them you just enter a list of sub music or cooking or family top lists. Do you need to enter them to vote?
JB, you should know that while it says you can do it twice a day, some of the pages explicitly say once in a 24 hour period or you will be banned. I have taken to rating us once a day to make sure I don't get the site removed by voting to often. On of them you can only rate once though.
