I'm noticing that I don't see votes on user profiles in threads anymore. Was this removed and if so, why?

That does not seem to be the only change. The Forum also got removed from the Homepage.
You can hit the little star on the lower left corner, but it appears that you have to wait after you upvoted someone: You can not vote for/against someone multiple times across different posts/threads.
You have to "spread more reputation" before you're allowed to do so:
I tried this with mitchells account:
I upvoted this post and wasn't able to upvote another of his posts.
Then I upvoted 3 other posts from different people and was able to upvote another post of mitchell.
If you want to downvote a post, you now have to add a reason.
Just a wild guess: maybe because they don't want to show ratings of their new support staff (rakumar, pakumar & friends) who were down-voted into oblivion?Originally Posted by mitchellsimoens
100% why they did it and for a long time they don't show reputation for those users. Voting affects a user's reputation so their rep was all red tiull they changed that. Basically hide the UI but don't fix the issue with those users.
