Can't vote on comments.

So, I can't vote on comments. I can vote on polls and reply to posts, but I can't vote on comments. Based on other comments, I think all other non-NA users are experiencing it, too.

Even before, this would occasionally happen, but I'd just reload the page and it'd eventually fix itself. The key: the top of the page. If the region thingy on the top left shows NA, the top right will either have a text saying "LOGIN" or a large red button saying "Play Now!". In both of those cases, I can't vote or comment. If the region thingy shows (correctly) EUNE, the top right will always have the texts saying cshakes | logout | support. I can then vote on polls and comment. However, I can only vote on posts or comments when there's a small box visible, displaying my summoner icon, level and responses. The box will not display outside the main index (works for all sorting methods), from where I can vote on threads.

Sorry for the lack of pictures, I'm on my ArchLinux and I haven't set up any screencap software.

When the top-right thing shows you as NA, are you able to change it to EUNE? If so, then does it work?

Have you been visiting NA GD (or any of the old NA forums) recently?

It just randomly switches from EU to NA when you reload pages, open pages in new tabs or follow links to other threads...and yea, you can just switch it back - but it´s annoying and doesn´t solvethe real issue. And the issue seems to affect a whole lot of non-NA users. I can´t vote on comments either, no matter what i do.

Each time you visit the old forums, it changes your boards region to the region of the old forums you went to. it's the way the site was built before Boards existed and is difficult for them to change.

So if you follow a link to NA GD, it'll swap your boards region to NA. Check out if that's what's happening to you.

I don´t have an NA account, i don´t look at the NA-forums on most days - and yet it changes back to NA at random. I guess it´s sort of the default setting or sth, but it´s still buggy and annoying.

I can swap it to EUNE, but it will never load with the icon box in the right-hand corner on a non-index page (posts etc). As Don said, it just randomly swaps between regions. No, I don't go on NA GD (or any other GD for that matter).
