Hello JoinUO Team,

When I try to vote on JoinUO, I always fail the proxy test. This requires me to log in to vote on JoinUO every single time. I connect via a wireless connection. To my knowledge, I am not using a proxy. I believe that someone could potentially vote multiple times using proxies. However, is this enough of the problem to inconvenience the casual voter? I mean, a casual user is likely not going to log in or register if they see that they failed the proxy test. I have ignored the JoinUO voting for months for this reason, until recently. However, I also understand that any fake votes could make the entire voting system rather useless at the same time.

Thank you, and to reiterate my question:

Is voting via proxy a serious enough problem to require the passing of a proxy test?

It is a pretty serious problem. Can you let me know what web-browser you are using, and who your ISP is, and I'll see what I can do?

Thanks!!
