If you're logged in you'll get the input box and the option to talk. If you're currently Anonymous Monk you don't have the option.

    Can anonymous monks vote? I could not earlier when logged in as AM, but could not figure out if it was a bug or a feature... If the latter, perhaps removing the Vote button would cause the AMs les confusion...
      They can't vote on node quality because XP points aren't given to Anonymous Monk and so they can't level up. They can vote in the polls, all that is kept track of there is whether a given IP has voted already on that particular poll.

    I knew about the node quality, was just wondering about the polls. I logged in earlier and when I tried to vote as an AM, it brought me right back to the same page, without going to the poll page. Once logged in, I was able to vote and it went to the poll results page as expected.
