Why is Yahoo Answers still having a problem with their Thanks for Visiting glitch?

I know it is a little annoyance compared to their more serious glitches but it is still ANNOYING. It has been going on for over a week now. Does anyone have any insight into this problem?

    All I know is what I experience and read on the suggestion board. It's actually been glitching for three weeks now. It started happening to me a few days after this thread (below) was posted, and it sometimes happens for Best Answer choices as well. Apparently they've been working on that (and a few other updates such as to the rewards system) for all this time. I mention the other updates because I suspect they intend on fixing the glitch when they apply a new overall update, which would naturally hold everything up. Hopefully that will be soon. I wonder if everyone is experiencing this glitch by now.

    lol kelvin S. It certainly seems that way. However what we need to remeber as someone pointed out recently every time they do an upgrade, more code is added to a massively complex system. It is almost inevitable that glitches will occur. When Microsoft create a new version of Windows it has months of testing in house. Then Beta versions go out to users for test and finally the finished version gets released. Yahoo are working on the fly, no time to test it. Despite our moans they do a fair job really.

    The problem is they fix one glitch and two new ones pop up.
