A few remarks about Boards

I've noticed a few issues with Boards. I hope I'm not double posting these things though.

First, sometimes I am logged in with my EUW account but cannot upvote a post. When trying to upvote or downvote, the Boards would ask me to login (even though I am already logged in). Logging in anyway doesn't do anything: it will reload the post, but I still cannot upvote.

Second, a QoL request: Would it be possible for the Boards to auto-detect in which region you are? I'm on EU West, and when I come here I have to manually change the region from NA to EU West every time. Even when reloading the page, I sometimes have to select the correct region again.

Finally, a new discussion should hide upvotes/downvotes as well as be immune to disappearing from the Hot/Best sorting option. If you post a thread and is immediately downvoted ones (effectively have a balance of 0), the thread disappears from at least the Hot sorting option. That's not entirely fair considering the first vote (if a downvote) decides whether a thread gains visibility or not.

That last issue has been a point of contention for a while. The more popular suggestion seems to be allowing upvotes/downvotes but hiding them for a brief period of time (about 10-15 minutes).
