Ask HN: What would make HN disable the vote-up button of a post/comment?
Is it a software bug or intentional spam prevention?
- aeontech 16y agoYou probably already voted.
- xm 16y agoWhat happened is that I voted up a new comment and its vote become 2. But after I refreshed the page, its vote went back to 1. I tries again and the vote was still 1 and the vote button was gone. So I cannot vote it any more. I think you are right that the button disappears after I vote. But somehow the vote was not counted.
- mfukar 16y agoSounds like somebody else downvoted it, too.
- petercooper 16y agoThe parent post could have been made "dead". That will remove the ability to do votes, etc, even from your threads page.
