to tell you that 'voting is on by default' now for all AIBU threads

According to MN

"Voting on AIBU is now set to 'on' by default, and can be turned off by making sure that the 'enable voting' option is on the 'no' answer"

Which explains all the voting threads.

Surely it should be off by default....otherwise there could be some interesting votes

I appreciate the irony of having switched off voting on this thread when it would have been useful!

I like it.

"If you've accidentally enabled voting on your thread and want it removed, we should be able to fix that for you, so just report the thread to us using the report button"

Voting is fun - but it should be proactive to enable it, not to have to actively disable it.

I like it, it might stop all the 'posting for traffic' and non-AIBU posts.

I don't vote on threads and would turn it off if and when I created a post.

@flouncyfanny I even tried to look in the appstore see there's an update for the app, but it seems to be up to date Sad
