I just voted on a reply to a question in an SoPW thread and when I clicked the vote button the screen came back with my vote properly registered but also all the other ++ radio buttons were checked.    I have never seen this behaviour before, is this the new default?

    If you want a workaround, try enabling the null vote option in User Settings.

    I've heard several complaints about odd behaviour of the voting radio buttons, but with null votes enabled it seems all fine to me.

    I've noticed the same thing intermittently, but haven't struck it for a few days now.
    On one occasion when it came back with the other ++ radio buttons checked, I didn't actually have any votes left to cast - but I hit the "Vote" button again anyway, just to see what would happen, and I'm sure they registered !! (Didn't get me any additional xp, but.)

    The next day, when I got around to thinking about reporting the strange behaviour, I was no longer able to reproduce it ... so I didn't bother.

    Cheers,
