When I get a comment during voting, I check them off as I get them as I am sure there are many of us who do.

Did you know, dear voters, that if you change your score given, the comment becomes unchecked and moves up to the top of our comment list? No, you probably didn't did you. This becomes quite perplexing when a comment saying one is given a 10 suddenly becomes unchecked...hmmmmmmm...most interesting indeed.

The moral of the story here?...Change your vote? Change your comment accordingly...we know who your are.

BIG FAT EDIT:
I learned something new too! Any sort of change, even merely clicking the arrow while browsing will "uncheck" a comment. This is great to know. It's good to learn new things ain't it?

It happens if you give the same vote, too, or if you change the comment slightly, whether or not you change the vote. A lot of people go through, vote, comment, then go through and make sure they still agree with their original vote. 90% of the time, I don't change my original vote, but the comment still gets unchecked and moves to the top.

or better yet... don't put the vote score in the comment. :)

I don't do that until a few days before the challenge ends -- and only for the uppermost scores.

I for one sometimes go back and amend the comment to correct spelling. My awful spelling or a typo... so that is another reason why the box becomes unchecked.

I will do this too.

I've done this....went back and looked and clicked the same vote or bumped up. I just realized 2 weeks ago that you can go to the next image without voting and still leave a comment.....i've been asleep for a while I guess.
