The forumid you are using for the application post is the key here. If that forum allows "guests" to make polls, make posts, etc. then it shouldn't be an issue. You mentioned that it all happens when you set poll options on. So, the first thing you should do is check to see if that forumid you are using has permissions set to allow guests to make/create polls.

Just checking...yep...No worries, I've been running/hacking/modding vB for a couple of seconds here thus far...

What I'm saying here is simple: Permissions are perfectly fine.

Like I said, there is a flat out error if the user is a guest (I apologize for not posting the exact error before, lack of foresight there, sorry. I'll get the error tonight and post it for you). But they can post in that forum on their own, and add a poll...

Soooo...

Thanks for attempting a verification of the problem given. I do appreciate that you want to make sure the basics are followed first, but usually I check to see if the user asking for assistance is indeed a nub, or if they just might have a couple of brain cells left.

I may have been unclear:

This happens when I turn off the polling option. In other words, the system says, "yes, I got the submission", but nothing gets posted UNLESS the user is logged in, even though, in the permissions for that forum they can post a thread (verified as me posting under guest (not logged in)). So what you end up with is a guest user who thinks their application was posted, and yet it was not because the data went into never never land. If polling is turned on then I get the errors. Again, I'll post specifics when I get home.

I now "Pass the buck" back to you good sir.
