why can i vote again on same poll?

[TooLFooL]

aren't you supposed to only vote once? if so, something's wrong cause i can always vote again.. i voted on the 'infomercial' poll right before i posted my comment, and now i can vote again. (i SWEAR i don't vote more than once!) i was wondering if this is normal?

ya! and why is it when I go to the supermarket and the girl is giving away samples I can eat again? aren't you supposed to only eat once? if so, something's wrong cause i can always eat again.. i ate the spicy chicken right before i put rice in my cart, and now i can eat again. (i SWEAR i don't eat more than once!) i was wondering if this is normal?

Cookies my good man.

Cookies my good man.

Apprently for the poll on the frontpage, try viewing the poll directly in the thread. That doesn't rely on cookies, whether you voted is stored in the database. You can't vote twice even if it appears you can.

Wrong!!
I have voted twice many many many times on polls!! :P
& yes, while logged in & without deleting cookies or anything else.
I noticed this many many moons ago & even watched very carefully and both votes were counted, on the front page then going into the post itself and voted again.

I'm amazed it's taken this long to see someone else post about it 8)

Well I didn't check it against every possibility, only way I can see that happening is if the polls on the front page are not tied to the DB which they should be. In that case you would be able to vote as many times as you wanted by deleteing the cookie..

We should all demand a recount! :P
