When we migrated from the old forum, there was no way to translate the old +1 replies into the new votes.
The important thing that you all need to know is that we won’t only check votes or +1 messages, both things will be taken into account when we’re considering suggestions by our community, and whilst we don’t always get to respond to things, we do read everything - so please rest assured that things are seen.
Everyone’s input is really valuable and we appreciate folk taking the time - there’s definitely no need to go back and re-vote for things if you’ve already +1’d it.
Regarding the finite votes - we’re still working out some of the voting functionality, so don’t worry too much about this. Reach out to us if there’s an issue and you can’t vote.
