in thread Could vote multiple times in voting booth

While I haven't voted on your node either way, I guess the main reason is that the effort to implement a "solution" that won't work much better is too high to the perceived gain. Re^4: Could vote multiple times in voting booth (awe) shows some of the approaches that were considered.

In the end, I think you're putting too much weight in the vote on a poll here. If the poll had any meaning other than being fun or thought provoking by virtue of its question or the possible answers, then that might be different.

    Regardless of how useful the poll is, I think it's a pretty big usability issue when some people can't use a feature for no reason. I don't know how the Perlmonks database is set up, but I can't imagine it'd be that huge of an undertaking to fix this. (Thank you for responding instead of just downvoting me because I dared to suggest that some part of this site was badly designed.)

      We conducted a poll and nobody voted for the "I can't vote because somebody already voted from my IP" option.
