It's just a question of Karma.
This site isn't there to get helped. It behaves as if it were designed by geeks for geeks. You need to be an educated and trained IT people before getting help.
Added : When you first reach this site, ther's a lot of surprising things, if you clic the "help" link on the top you get few and very general infos.
But the most important help, I got was from the FAQ and the link is almost hidden, in very small chars in the bottom of the screen.
I tried to upload a photo in my profile and it's very difficult and again with very few explanation
Let's hope, it will come in a next future
Apologizes for my first overeaction.
Final response
The original question was about voting.
It's simple:
- on the left side of each answer,
there is a number (ranking) and a
grey tick. You need a lot of Karma
(i. e; reserved for geeks, not for
rookies) to upvote or downvote a
response.
- Just below, you'll find a grey sign
(a tick ?) ; it's clickable, and when
clicked it becomes green.
Congrats!
You got it!
That's how to vote.
You can test it on this answer.
You're completely right, voting is the right way to give credit to an answer (or to a question, too!). But you need karma of at least 15 to upvote a question or answer..
Thanks everyone! By reading all the answers and putting them all together I now have a better idea of how to function here, and apparently know how to vote. Like everything else, it will get easier with time.
I just joined, & I am told I have 30 votes to use, but it seems I can't use any of them because I need points to upvote!!!!!!!!!!! Is this deliberately made too complex for simple folk like me to use?
