Haha, I kept clicking on my own over and over again and nothing happened

 HA! Unlike Facebook, I don't think you can like your own post. Can you still do that on Facebook?

Haha no no no. I tried clicking on it over and over again to try and make it do something before I had any idea what it was for. I probably clicked it at least 10 times and it didn't do anything, once I started this thread I found out what it was for. I wouldn't like my own posts... well.. lol

For those of you who have been here long enough, you may remember that they had this same system back in 2009 or so.  Didn't last very long, not sure why, but perhaps whatever caused them to disband it back then has been fixed so it'll stay around longer now.

Would be nice to get a "daily digest" of your own posts that have been kudo'd, rather than en email notification in real time.  I think it'd even be nice if myFICO sent out a weekly "most kudo'd posts" email so people who don't frequent all parts of the forums could find the most (arguably) helpful posts in a quick and simple manner.

Maybe this one will stick around and they won't get rid of it. Got some excellent ideas there, maybe they will take it into consideration.

Just saw this.. you can definitely sign up for a daily kudo digest. The weekly isn't a reality at this time, but it sure sounds nice -- just not sure if Fico wants to send that much mass of e-mails weekly.

Official explanation 

When you want to tell a user that you appreciate his/her post, you can now send them kudos. Just press the cute little star under the posters name. 

This will allow the best responses in a thread to really stand out - assuming the best responses will get more kudos.

But the "Star" only has three points. I didn't get where I am today by clicking stars that only have three points...

Dang nab it...I wished they could have explained this on the  start.  I've been kudosed maybe 20 times but could never figure out how to kudos someone back.  Now I probably have at least 10-15 posters thinking - "this guy is a total stuckup azz!"   I WANT to kudos but never knew how until today.  Well, I try to improve every day and hope maybe to make new friends on board.  KUDOS to everyone!!!
