That’s funny, I thought at one point I saw vouch link for comments, but no longer. I doubt I used it more than once. Does that mean it got taken away?

I couldn't say for sure but... I think so? It's the same for me, I used to have it and now I don't.

In your case that was true. General explanation here: https://news.ycombinator.com/item?id=42902318.

I didn't see much misuse of vouching in your recent history so I've removed that penalty from your account now. But please make sure that the comments you're vouching for are respecting the site guidelines (https://news.ycombinator.com/newsguidelines.html).

Why don't you make such things transparent and clear on a user's account so they can see what you've done?

You're keen on reviewing a user's recent history, but provide no corresponding transparency to the user on what you've done.

It didn't get taken away. Not sure why you didn't see it where you expected to but there's no issue with your account.

Thank you.

I didn’t realize the vouch link doesn’t show up in the main threads.

I have been trying to bring Musk and DOGE topics to light all week and have lost the ability to vouch as a consequence.

You haven't lost the ability to vouch.

Meta note, but seriously thank you for being so transparent about this! It's a big part of why I love and trust HN

You have to go to the specific comment (click on the timestamp) and vouch is available there.
