Ocassionally, I vote and an error with exhaust icon pops up. So far, I failed to make a screenshot or reproduce it by scripting the site.

But the underlying AJAX request returns 405 Method Not Allowed:

{"errorMessage":"Vote creation is not permitted for application:CODE_HERE discussion:CODE_HERE","errorCode":"UNABLE_TO_CREATE_VOTE"}

Wtf guys really. Probably your database is too slow or something. I keep firebug allways enabled on this site so I can see your bugs. Please start fixing them already.

There are at least a couple of different reasons why you might not be able to vote on a discussion or comment:

Voting is disabled on that discussion because it is turned off at the Board level or on the discussion itself.
You got rate-limited for trying to vote on comments/discussions too quickly.

We need to do a better job of providing relevant error messages!

I got this a lot last week. Seems to happen in spurts :/

I always laugh at this message.

"Not authorized?"

This happens a lot if you upvote/downvote several things in a very short amount of time. The way around it is to just keep clicking the up vote button until it registers (usually about 5 clicks for me, sometimes more, sometimes less).

I had this in Fantasy LCS too. I waited like 3 minutes and it still showed up. Also a similar message popped up when I attempted drafting people for my own league so I had to let it randomly distribute players.
