Rating posts

I rated a post earlier but it never showed my star. I tried to rate it again but it told me I had already rated a post by this posted and had to wait 24 hours. Have I lost my rating privileges

PS I just realized I tried to rate a "guest" entry does that have something to do with it?

hi stace
you can rate a guest post.
your little star doesn't show up *right away* -- did it ever?

Yes it did thanks - I gotta work on that patience thing
