Put the actual value on the graph somewhere. It's impossible to tell what your reputation value is by just looking at the graph.
It would also be nice to have all the new demographics on the profile page (authority, editor, reputation, blah blah).

We're steadily improving the graph. We're using Dundas Chart which has some very funky bits we can use so we'll see if we can make the thing sing.

Hey Chris,
How does one become a team member? I have a lot of time on my hands these days...

Do you live in or near Toronto and do you have a CV?

Not as of this date, but I can travel or move closer.

Not a spammer, just a guy in need of a a decent set of jokes. And maybe also a guide on etiquette.

Ah, I hadn't seen his Lounge entry, only the others.

Hi,
When I click on a message at the bottom of an article using Google Chrome, the page scrolls up and I have to scroll back down to see the open comment. For example in this[^] article, click on the first message in the discussion area. Note that the page scrolls up about 2 pages. noise tolerance is "very low", layout is normal and per page is 50.
Actually, just tried it on this very message and the same thing happens.

I thought this was the Chrome-specific issue where it has trouble with anchors when it displays pages that were not visible when originally rendered, but your link to an example of this problem (I used the "new window" alternative, which displays as a new current tab) shows that this is not the issue.
I think I've had pages where the problem goes away after a refresh or a move to subsequent comment pages.
BTW It is NOT happening for me on this "very" message, and Clearly there are other comments that work fine -- I'd say this problem occurs about 10% of the time.
After submitting this comment I found it is happening for this message, just not as bad: only about half a page out -- not enough to stop reading the comment exposed.

I've seen this before but have not had the time to track down exactly what's happening.
I've moved this into the main bugs and suggestion forum since it's a forum issue, not a Quick Answers issue.

Sorry for posting in the wrong place Chris.

Sometime in the past two years this does seem to have been fixed

Can we make the background of the Question part a bit different, i.e the back ground of the Article header (Light shades of Yellow / Blue) in the Article ? so that we can have a clear visual seperation between Question and Answers.
|
|
|
|

We'll be revisiting the UI of the Quick Answers system as a whole. Hopefully this can be addressed at that time but I will make note of it.

What do this numbers indicate?

There seem to be 6 components to someone's reputation right now; you'll never see them all at once, and their sum is plotted against time on you reputation graph. You have to post something to get to see the actual numbers. This FAQ[^] attempts to explain it a bit.

The FAQ doesn't explain how the numberes are arrived at. I'm guessing the large number is my "reputation", but the others are a mystery.
Like "Authority" (of course, my authority value should be "Chuck Norris")

FYI: I didn't write the FAQ
This is how I understand it:
the big table in the FAQ shows different actions (by authors or by their readers) that fall into one of six categories and alter the associated reputation value; the total reputation is the sum of those six numbers. For you and me, "authority" is the big contributor; it results from articles and forum replies.
Missing:
- seeing the seven reputation numbers somewhere
- a clear explanation
Uncertain:
- where will we see current values, and where the values at the time of posting?
And then they invented six more colors: besides the old "overall" bronze/silver/gold/platinum, these colors now also exist for each of the six rep components. Probably we will get some color tags somewhere (I would rather see actual numbers, maybe in engineering notation e.g. "22K")
The above is the result of some observation and some guessing.
And I wouldn't worry too much, it may well change many more times...
IMO they overdid it.

Correct.
The numbers for each reputation type will appear on your reputation graph shortly - a line for each. We've implemented it locally but haven't yet put it on the live site.

if all lines use the same linear scale, I'm not sure that will make much sense.
My Aythority and total rep would be some 45000, whereas the other five would be between 0 and 500, that is less than 1%, hence invisible.
Ideas:
1. use a logarithmic scale (has advantages and disadvantages)
2. use separate scales (I don't like that myself)
3. use a second graph for those components that are less than say 10% of the grand total; this might be the best solution.
Please do show the seven current values as numbers ASAP, that will avoid most of the recent questions.

Good thinking !
There are only 10 types of people in this world — those who understand binary, and those who don't. |
