kiako asked in Yahoo ProductsYahoo Answers · 1 decade ago

My understanding was only level 2 and up are ones that can vote for others...Am I wrong?

I have seen a couple of level ones with a thumbs up or down by their answers.....is that their vote for the asker or is that the vote from a level 2 and higher about level one's answer.

Update:

I still dont understand.....attack_ru is a perfect example. He is a level 1 but yet he has a thumbs down ...Why is that? How did he get that?

    I am a level 7 user. I can thumbs down anyone - including a level 1 user. The level 1 user you refer to has been thumbed down, so you can't see their answer immediately.

    A level 2 user or above can thumbs up a level 1 through level 7 user. The thumbs merely suggest to you what others thought of the answer, and may either sway you to pick a particular answer.

    Level 2 and higher voted on the answers from people on level 1.

  • That is from someone level 2 or higher level ones can not rate answers
