I recently intended to upvote with a comment but accudently upvoted without comment. I then pressed the uparrow again to erase my previous upvote so that I could do it again. I added the comment, pressed uparrow and the comment was accepted, however after I refreshed the page I noticed that the member's rep was not changed.
Once an upvote without comment is made is it not possible to add comment so that the member's rep is increased?
Jump to PostJust tried same thing with this post, and got the same result: no increase in rep.
Looks like you've found a bug AD.
Jump to PostDoes not prove it happygeek, community feedback -> no rep
I tested it in programming forum post of our ancient friend, and somehow it did not get added at all at first click after cancel - upvote and comment, but going back to page and clicking the upvote button again …
Jump to PostDoh! That will teach me to try and 'do stuff' when feeling poorly. My head is still asleep...

The cancelation of upvote with comment after worked, as moderator I see a gray ghost comment, normal users shouldn't see anything, I guess.

I just want to double check the reproduction steps, because the following worked as expected for me:
That's the right order, but I just tried it again on your post in the same thread -- same result for me. Maybe because you are Admin and have different privileges???
I just tried with a test account that has slightly lower privileges than you and those steps still worked fine. Try clearing your cache; something might have gotten mucked up with your browser's copy of the client side scripts.
Did that but didn't help. I'm using Chrome on Windows 8 if that makes any difference.
I'll give it a test when I get home tonight, since I have Windows 8 there but not here at work. I'm using Windows 7 and Chrome presently.
