Curious about visibility of Feedback

[BHPSteel]

It looks like there's a discrepancy with Feedback indicators on forum posts. For most of the time, I see feedback flags:

And on other forums (fora?) I see none.

Is this by design or is it a 'feature'?

Just wondering.

I haven't noticed that. Could you link the post to see if we would see the same?

The brightness/contrast of your screenshot is criminal

Flag says report if you click on it

Here's an example

I think it's CSS screwing around (maybe in Brave browser)

ODT Gun Show & Swap Meet - Marietta - May 17, 2025

I'll have a Blue Book Of Gun Values for reference at Booth 11. Last years edition. 2025 edition hasn't been released yet.

I've never really noticed that after all these years, but you're right..

Could certain parts of the forums have the feedback visibility feature disabled?

BHPSteel you are right I am not seeing feedback on that post. I am using Chrome.

It's been like this as long as I can remember. I suspect that it's forum-dependent. Certain areas of the forum don't display feedback, others do. It's never bothered me enough to report it but it is something that I continue to notice.

Most of that is dynamic and will change depending on the size of your display, style selected, and if you're in mobile or desktop mode. Simply turning a mobile device sideways will change what's displayed, as will resizing the window on a desktop. And yes, each forum section may have different settings. And then you have browsers that will send back different info to try and manipulate that based on user preferences.

It's just my autism cutting in.

In a past career I was a UX tester and it comes back to haunt me from time to time.
