Re: Polls not working for me
Weird. I'm going to double-down on the proxy theory, though. Try the proxy test to ferret out anything obvious, and the cache test to possibly expose any transparent proxies.
It is pitch black. You are likely to be eaten by a grue.

Here's the proxy test results...

Re: Polls not working for me
And I just ran the cache test. Everything checks out there as well. Went to page, got serial number. Reloaded page (to verify) and serial number stayed the same.
Closed FF then opened it again. Got new serial number and page time was 2 seconds.
Next!

Re: Polls not working for me
Multiple machines, different OS, browsers, and connection source/type. No cache or proxy. Same user. Maybe an account issue?
I noticed you're using the Hermes Green forum style. Since that never caught on, I didn't bother to update it, and it is likely using the older form_submit method. I've switched you back to the modified proSilver style. See if that makes a difference.
EDIT - Yep, I switched mine over to Hermes Green and got the same error.

Re: Polls not working for me
Yep, works perfect now... except the board is ugly (to my eyes anyway)! I'll miss the HermesGreen style
Re: Polls not working for me
Actually, now that I know what the problem is, I'll just switch to the prosilver when I want to take a poll. I'll never be able to get used to using prosilver on a regular basis!

Re: Polls not working for me
I never look in the Technical forum and probably miss all kinds of stuff. This problem is a good example because I was in the exact same situation. It would probably have helped to know that I too was using different browsers, computers, connections, etc. and couldn't even answer my own polls. I'm going to change to prosilver and see how many other issues go away.
It's a dirty job but I got to do it for over 20 years. Thank you.
