Adding to favorites

Lately I have been randomly receiving an odd message when saving to my favorites. As usual I click the highlighted "add to favorite" and instead of seeing the numbers move up by one, (NaN) appears. After which I will refresh and repeat then the vote takes hold. Is this something that can be corrected? I don't remember ever having this happen before.

It will occur if you try to vote twice I've found you dun dUn DUUUUn! Joking. There are two possibilities: you've voted on it before the favoring(also if you are using multiple devices simotaneously here), or your version of java isn't communicating well(also when the page doesn't load correctly as an interuption of data). If you use a device normally used for reading rather than browsing, this can occur(as it has happened to me like that). Beyond that, I'm not sure, sorry.
We had only experienced a consistent problem with the voting system a year or two ago. It's still working well if a reload/refresh improves results, but we'll keep an eye on it.

I have been monitoring this situation and have come to the conclusion that if you have the pic up on your screen for too long and then click Add To Favorites is when the (NaN) pops up. As I said before, refreshing will solve the problem. That being said, a better solution would be to adopted a feature from Konachan.com/.net where after having added to favorites the option wording will change to, "Remove from Favorites". This would eliminate any doubt in the users mind about whether or not the pic has been faved.

It'll be great if we could manage our favorites in separate folders, that'll be cool :)

Night_Wing, I think that this subject is about the posts themselves versus the favorites section of profiles.

I have seen this toggle button' type thing done before. I think it can still cause a false sense of accomplishment if there's a deep rooted error, but I'll second the suggestion to our admin. I like the font background color change so I don't have to squint to see the words sometimes.
