Overview
When voting on an Idea, the first vote produces the correct 5 points but every subsequent vote adds or subtracts 10 points.
Environment
Jive Hosted.
Reproduction Steps
- Vote up an Idea.
- Vote down the same Idea with the same user.
- Result: The end score is -5 points than before the 1st vote.
Root Cause
Users are only allowed to vote once, either up or down, so if they change their vote, the previous vote is canceled. For example:
- Initially, when voting up from 0, the points go up to 5 as voting up adds 5 points.
- If the user initially voted down from 0, the points would have gone to -5 as voting down deducts 5 points from the original 0.
Information
This is the expected behavior. Users are only allowed to vote once, therefore, voting down does not remove your vote, it deducts 5 points from the original score in order to cancel the original vote.
