Hi, Robert! Nice topic.

Often if OP stops asking and commenting that means that problem is solved ;)

Votes can indicate the value and usually mean the post is helpful/unhelpful.

Answering on your comment: we have the Accepted answer option. But the answer can be accepted and the problem either SOLVED or FAILED. We can introduce SOLVED, FAILED and OBSOLETE tags for the questions which would be available for the OP. 

Hi, John!

Yes, it is done on purpose. We are working on better SEO for DC and this is part of the work. It is called by google as circular link - the link on the page which directs on itself. Google "doesn't like it". 

I got used to clicking on it too. So it is still clickable on other than home page, but doesn't work on home page.

Reload can work? Ctrl+R on Chrome?
