It's not a forum bug, it's a skin bug. I can vote in subsilver, but not GlossyBlue.

The way you view the posts you mentioned at the other "View Active Threads Broken" post. Maybe somehow backdoors you in to bypass whatever bugs to submit a vote?

Ah yes. As mentioned elsewhere I'm in Subsilver2. Nice catch.

I switched to subsilver and the vote does work, voted YES.

The View Active Posts still buggy though. Interesting that only two threads show up as Important Announcements in the user Panel. The only two that also are the only ones that appear in View Active Posts when set to view by year. Maybe this is the bug to look into?

Gaaah this subsilver color is ugly and reminds me of the new bloated slow page load Atari Age. What is the deal with the ad at the top left and where is the beloved Racketboy Logo? The layout looks like a lot of other generic forum sites. Nope, I'll go back to the original color.


Is phpbb the one causing these problems?

Well this sucks, I need to change my board view to vote in a poll and then change back so I can browse without clawing out my eyeballs.
