What do I miss ?

Sorry if this would be in the wrong forum , but I did not find another appropriate forum on this board ...

 

 

 

"I don't get it" , part one :

 

I looked up a "poll" thread , and I got the message that I "already voted in this poll" , while I'm quite sure I did NOT yet vote in that poll ... no big problem (it's only the internet ...) but why can't I vote on a poll that I did not vote on already ? ...

 

 

 

"I don't get it" , part two :

 

After one has contributed to a thread , a litlle black dot is added in the middle of the symbol on the left column of that thread in that forum , right ?

Well , on my screen I don't see that black dot in at least 2 out of 3 threads that I contributed to ... is there a technical explication for this ? Can one of the boards 'nerds' give me an explanation or am I missing something here ? It would be nice to see those dots when it's due , so I would know that I contributed to that thread already or not ...

 

Thanks . J.

In some polls, viewing the results before voting prevents you from going back and voting at a later time.

You are in the right place.

Regarding the black dots; the way the software is set up on this board, the black dots do not appear in the "View New Posts" list, but you will see them if you view each forum separately.

 

Eneukman is correct about the polls. If you view the results without having voted, you cannot go back and vote in that poll. I think that is called a "null vote" and I've seen it on every web site I've visited that uses Invision Power Board software.
