He's probably using the back arrow instead of clicking on the "off topic" selection at the bottom of the page (Gene posted the same anomoy)

I've seen threads the douchenozzle has started and they already had stars with 0 replies. Just like a pimple on your ass, ignore it and it will eventually go away.

I am more of a lately, vs. chronic, as only discovered the star-rating system this week.

I give myself 5-stars for all threads I start, there are some in here I always give 1-star to,,, any guesses??

Been using Firefox since the early 2000s. I've been on countless forums (since 1994) and never saw one where it didn't work.

Does the bold/un-bold feature work for you?

I noticed that the number of thread ratings was low at the other place, but when I vote it doesn't register for some reason.

You're not a liberal so your vote wasn't counted.
