OK, this may sound really stupid, but I don't know how to vote for the stories... anyone can give me a simple step-by-step? Or point me to the place were I can find out about it.

There's a box at the bottom

There's a box at the bottom left of each story that says 'Vote' in it. Just click on that while you're logged in and you've voted!

voting - suggestions

shinieris,

If you are using the Mozilla Firefox browser *and* the NoScript safe-browsing addon for Firefox, you may not be able to vote. I use both and found out I had to "temporarily allow all this page" in NoScript to get voting to work. Another requirement is to be logged in under your user name (which you _are_ doing) to make the vote box appear.

Hope this helps.

That's probably it

The voting box is a script. So are a few other features on the site. I try to keep that stuff to a minimum but sometimes there's really no other way to do it. I don't allow any ads that have malicious scripts so it is generally safe to let scripts run here on BC. Bob helps me keep things up to date so we don't have cross-site scripting vulnerabilities develop.

Hugs,
Erin
