Do you ever, in a million years, think I would discount rep points on a whim?
You know me better than that, Ravi.

No, which is why I used a smiley. I was just trying to figure out how I lost 2K points overnight. I don't mind that, but it would be nice to know why.
I just saw your new informational post. Thanks!

Chris,
I saw your informational message. Being very new to CP, am bit obsessed with point hence I have followed my points from beginning and saw increasing after every answe/upvote.
Seeing 1000 points disappearing and the reasoning given in the information message is not very clear. For instance, just day before the upgrade I know I attained silver in organizer and boom...gone. 100+ point in organizer and some 700-800 in authority.
So what should we understand? These points are gone forever ?
Also, couple of answers given yeterday is NOT accounted in the rep.
Thanks,
Milind

Voting is gone - but so is the report button.
So no way to report spam?
|
|
|
|
|
I think reporting spam isn't possible now.
I hope there's no spam in the Lounge until the report button is gone.

There is still the Spam and Abuse Watch Forum[^] - I'm just guessing they will keep a closer eye than they normally do on it for the time being. And they kept a pretty sharp eye before...
If you get an email telling you that you can catch Swine Flu from tinned pork then just delete it. It's Spam.

Correct. For now. (though the Spam and Abuse forum [^]is Your Friend)

Hey guys, as per this[^] post and my response to it, there have been at least two -16/-160 abuse reports given on at least two separate answers to this question[^]?
Before seeing that more than one post had been flagged, I had simply deleted mine as it was a bit of a tongue-in-cheek response. But since another, completely innocuous answer in this thread was flagged, I'm wondering if one of the hamsters could just check and ensure that we don't have a troll running around flagging posts willy-nilly. I'm assuming it is the same person as they have a high enough rep to do this, but aren't quite platinum yet.
Cheers.
I wasn't, now I am, then I won't be anymore.

The voter in question has a different idea of how to use the "1" voting option than I do. Yes, he's very high rep.

Thanks for looking into it, Chris.

I realise that voting is currently off in the Lounge.
However, voting buttons are still available in the technical forums. There's a thread starter in C# which is pretty clearly a homework question, so I 1-voted it. It showed 'Rating: 1. Votes: 2' when I did it. However, the post still shows no rating when viewed, and is not greyed out as a low rated post.
I'm not sure whether the votes aren't being stored or the thread display isn't getting average ratings, but something is not right in there somewhere.

Thats what I thought.
The post I made a couple down was downvoted, and I only noticed because of the -16 appeared in my rep table, but nothing shows against the post. Maybe it shows to others, not just myself...
|
|
|
|
|
Ah, if you got the -16 then presumably voting is working, but the post display is incorrect.

Thanks for the report. Fixing.
