Votes defaulting to 1??

[LexxRuthless]

There had been some discussion of noticeably lower scores on the site lately, which I had attributed to more active down-voting by some users. However, on my most recent story I got the following comment:

This was my second read through and it was just as good as the first time. One concerning thing I found was that my rating was some how changed from 5 stars to one. How did that happen? Im going to contact literotica about that BS. Great story

Now, it's just one comment from one member. Nobody else has said anything like this. But, if this is happening to other readers with any kind of frequency it would explain the recent plague of down-votes.

I noticed this morning that I’d had well over 200 votes returned (that many real votes being very atypical), yet my ratings have generally slid down. Your post might offer some insight.

This is getting so very old.

Tell me about it. I submitted a story yesterday, can't wait to see how that works out for me when it publishes

Thank you for the report.

We don't see any indication that there is an issue with votes changing without user input. One thing that might confuse some users is that with the new system they can change their vote easily, so it's possible a user could click on a 1 after clicking on a 5 without realizing it. This was not possible with the old system, but readers have requested editable votes and that was included in the new update.

If that user offers any more specific information, please let me know as I would like to look into it further. We would need a story name, username, and a browser would be useful as well. I'll do more general testing, but again, we haven't seen any reports on this type of bug as of yet.

Thank you again.
