New Forums: Like's failing silently, at max for day?

Ping @ManeTI!

Was liking some posts and noticed that when I clicked on the thumbs-up icon, it got the blue hi-light with a black 'x' to the upper right, but my name didn't show up in the list of forum members who liked the post.

Reloaded the page and found that my like hadn't been recorded, with the thumbs-up icon still greyed out and my name not on the post's list of who liked it.

So like's are failing silently.  I may have already given out the max number (still 25?) of like's today, but I'm getting no feedback indicating that.

And it's working again for me.  But as the forums are in the UK, and the server is likely on UTC, it could be a new day and 25 more like's, of which I've used 1.  If it's a durable issue, it'll be back and others will see it too.

No, it's on a 24 hour timer from the first like.

@ManeTI, @Vanamonde, @Dman979, it's happened again.

When I clicked a like button, the button went blue but my name didn't show up.  Reloading the page showed the like wasn't registered.

I'm assuming this is due to hitting the 25-likes-per-24-hours limit.

The previous major revision of forum software reported hitting this limit to the forum member.

If at all reasonably possible, I would like this current forum software to be adjusted to do the same and not mark the entry to some degree as it the action was accepted.  I think it's an appropriate UI measure to let a forum member know when the action they just did was rejected for a legitimate reason.

However, I can understand if this isn't reasonably possible or will take time.
