Poe .... Is it true that if you delete your post your rating that you gave remains ??

If so can you do anything about that cos some "nuisance" posters are deliberately sabotaging Ratings and then deleting their posts

i'm not sure if that's how it works or not but if it is there's nothing i could do about it without modifying the software

You can vote on a thread without posting anything. And it is certainly a nuiscance when posters come into the play forum and give everything a one.

But oh well...
