Agreed!
I also am unable to give kudos to many posts on many threads, all regarding throtteling or torrents. Yes I'm signed in as I can give kudos to other un-related posts. Not this one or some others though and I can't see a reason it would be locked other than Verizon doesn't want people supporting these posts.
"Sorry, you can't give kudos to this post." - Thanks Verizon... so that's they way you run a forum.
