Since the last update to the FAF Client I have been unable to rate replays.
I have checked with another player. He is unable to rate replays too.
So I'm guessing it's some global bug with the FAF Client.
It's no big deal as it doesn't hinder gameplay. However it is nice to bring attention to replays that others might like to watch and to give warning of replays that desync.
I'm speculating the feature was removed. I've commented on dozens of replays and can do so no longer.
Nothing was removed. Please provide an error message

There is no error message. There's no option on the replay screen to provide a star rating nor a comment on the replay.
Also I'm not seeing any star ratings from other FAF users of recent replays.
The button to make a review is not there, maybe there's a change to a conditional?

I've experienced this myself.
And I recall a few of my buddies have mentioned this too.
We just figured that it was removed just like the YouTube Dislike button.

I forwarded this to our client maintainer. First feedback was: possible, but wasn't intended.

I found it. It is a race condition when you first open a replay with no reviews. Opening a replay with some reviews first will make it accessible
