Prevent anon & self-clicking on "Did you find this valuable?"

The "Did you find this valuable?" voting mechanism allows you to vote on your own posts. That should be disallowed, as should anonymous voting (if possible), so the data actually means something.

I'd rate this as "low priority," though, unless anyone's using that data for anything serious.

:-)

LOL - "2 out of 2 found this valuable." Both were me, just now. Clicking "back" on the browser after navigating away allows you to re-vote. Maybe it's more serious than I think. :-)

Thanks for the feedback. I believe we are planning on reworking this feature eventually. Do you find this valuable?
