Did I miss something or is it impossible to upvote comments in Askbot? Both StackExchange and OSQA have this feature, and it seems like people use it a lot.

If not, what happens during an import from StackExchange? Is the comment vote information discarded (that would be a shame) or is it stored in the database for future use?

Excellent! One small gripe is that the arrow is overlaid on the karma score in an ugly way (at least in Firefox). It should be displayed to the right of the score, as on StackOverflow/Exchange. I think the horiz separators should also be wider, running over the arrow and score. See http://ask.antimoon.com/questions/1339/is-it-cell-phone-or-cellphone/1346#1346 Tomasz P.

True, the font looks different in Chrome and FF. Will need to fix this, probably by moving the arrow and the score apart. Evgeny ( 2011-06-23 23:59:57 -0500 )edit

Put something like this in the custom css in the settings page:

div.comment .upvote.hover {
    background: url(http://ask.sirimangalo.org/m/default/media/images/go-up-grey.png) 1px center no-repeat;
}

This puts it directly below the number on Firefox.
