Here's how it works on my forum, and I thought how it worked on everyone's.
User A gives user B a helpful post rating (either good or bad)
User A gets a notification that they have a new helpful post rating. Clicking on the link in the drop down notifications menu takes them to this page:
profile.php?do=helpfulans
at which point they can see in the right-hand column who gave them the answer and whether it's good or bad.
