Can't vote in polls
      #133624 - 02/02/04 08:39 PM

Does anyone here have a problem voting in polls? It seems whenever I try to vote in a poll I always get the same response, telling me they already have a vote from my IP address. Any suggestions?

I am not sure. I have this problem as well and cannt vote. It says the exact same thing. I have posted about this before, but have gotten no response.

What happens to me is that when I "submit vote" I get taken to the black DB info page. When I go back and try again it says there has already been a vote from my IP address. Even though the black screen appears, I know my vote actually registered because I looked BEFORE I voted to see how many were there before mine.

So I think they are counting, it's just a poor system of confirmation that your vote has been received.

Are you connecting with aol? Aol assigns a new IP every time you sign on, but it's in a certain range. Perhaps someone in your area has an IP similar to yours and DB just looks at part of the IP and not the exact IP to determine who has voted and who hasn't. Just PM me, I'll vote for you, I hardly ever vote in polls, and I'm static.

Thanks for the info. I feel better knowing I'm not the only one this happens too!
