in thread My votes are running away...

Out of respect, ikegami, I understand about cookie. So let me rephrase my question: why are there two domains for the same content and yet treat users differently? And I still don't understand why some links I clicked on .org (which I was logged in) sent me to .com (which I was logged out). What triggers this domain switching?

While I was editing this I opened a new tab and went to www.perlmonks.com that presented me a login box. So I logged in. When I was back on this editing I clicked the preview button and I became AM. So is this an instant prove of your statement?

You can be logged in at one domain (say perlmonks.org), and not at another (say perlmonks.com).

But again, why? From user experience point of view rather than technical one, I'm really clueless.

    You get treated exactly the same on all domains. It's the exact same code on all of them.

    If you're asking why there are multiple domains? dunno.

    What triggers this domain switching?

    Following a bad link someone made in a post or in the CB, like the one you created in the parent post.

      I'm afraid I'm not following you. Is it just a statement of example or you're referring to an actual bad link I created somewhere in my nodes?. Just to make sure, I reread my postings which fortunately small number, so I can force myself open them all and double check all links in there. And I found no bad links.

      Other than that, you put most parts on the puzzle, so thanks :-)

        "Bad", in this context, meant "to another domain".
