    Looked for a place to post my question since it really wasn't worthy of it's own thread, but didn't find one. So, I thought maybe it'd stop clutter in this subforum to post a generalized thread.

    My question: I noticed today on older posts there's no thumbs button. It seems to disappear after all posts 3 months or older. Is that new? Is there a purpose behind it or did it just come bundled with other stuff in an update or plugin?

    No real issue with it, I was just curious.

    As I recall, it was that way since I've been here.

    Posts can't be thumbed after a certain period of time, they're a more 'in the moment' thing. Doesn't really make sense to thumb up a year old post.

    Makes sense,

    I've just never noticed it before.

    I assume it's something new to try and prevent newbies from asking about why they can't read access the WBA. I don't go there much so it's not a big deal for me.

    Yeah I got it too, and was incredibly confused, especially since it implies that I actually *lost* access to the WbA? (I checked and I didn't.)
