I have recently tried to use the "Open Voting" option, and a problem ensued. The steps I took, and the problem, are as follows:
-I post a message, as the OP of the thread, while having the "Open Vote" option checkmarked.
-The system begins a voting period, and the banner of "a vote is open" appears at the top of the page, as normal.
-I click the banner to edit the voting period options.
-The voting period options appear as normal.
-I set the vote to START at a later date (say, I tell the voting to start at 10pm of the ongoing day), and I do NOT set a closing time/date.
-The settings update as normal, and the banner says that "Voting will start in XX hours and XX minutes".
-[PROBLEM] Some time later, the vote auto-closes even though I never told it to. My profile posts an auto-message saying the voting is closed, and a tally appears based on however many votes were cast.
This has happened twice now. The first time this happened, I deleted the tally message. The second time it happened, the tally message can be found here:
This is not a lethal problem. Instead of using the voting schedule tool we will just use the "New Tally" option to count the votes for our quest.
However, this is still a bug, so here is a report.
Thank you for your time, site team. We do appreciate your effort!
