THIS IS NOT NICE!
If I try to vote the following message appears:
"You have followed an external link to vote. THIS IS NOT NICE!"
What's wrong?

It's a bug in the CSDb code, Nata.
Several ppl complained about this too.

As Jailbird points to - read that thread.
However I would like to say that it is not a bug in CSDb as such. We had a problem some time ago, where people on other websites make direct links to the voting-page, so if people followed these links, they would automatically vote 1 or 10 or whatever on something without knowing (if they have a CSDb login of course)
So we added a simple check on the referer (the page you came from) when people vote. If the referer is not CSDb we do not allow the vote, and the little text appears.
Some people have disabled their referer either directly in their browser, or because of some firewall/proxy or whatever, and then the voting dosn't work. :/ |
