I suggest you look again into the "total color" of the three accounts mentioned in my above message.
The two pages are now in agreement, the total color still is the color of the numerically highest rep component.
|
|
|
|
|
Although I did find some more total-rep-color mistakes early on after the update, all is OK now. Total color now equals highest color for all the accounts I checked (about 200, I have a little utility that does it of course).

When I post an answer in Quick Answers my rep score is showing up only as;
Rep: (1,064)
Which is a bit strange as previous answers show up as;
Rep: 3,623 (4,687)
Not sure if this is the cause but I posted an answer to a question that was deleted while I posted the answer.

Has been reported.
Chris fixed it and should be updating somewhere today.

It seems I have a total rep shown as a platinum.
But hang one, I was a gold member, and now I have a total that sums to platinum.
Great.
But I liked being a Gold, knowing that Platinums were top members.
Gold gave me allowances that were denied me as a platinum, I do not deserve a platinum membership, please allow me the rights of a gold, (That I have never abused), and allow me to work to be a platinum in time.------------------------------------

I'm not agreeing or disagreeing here Dave, I'm 'on the fence' over some parts of the new system.
The new reputation system (I think) is trying to reward members for their contribution to the site overall and not primarily focusing on answering PQs and writing articles.
CP is more than just that. The Lounge for example, for many, is the heart of this site and many rarely stray from there. They are still valuable members of the CP community and make the site the wonderful place it is. People who are prolific in such forums can now be recognised for their contribution in that area. If that, as in your case, leads to them becoming Platinum overall, then that is deserved just as much as if they had written 25+ high quality articles as it was before.
CP without guys such as yourself would be so much less and I'm glad they now receive more prominent recognition.Dave

Don't you mean the other way around?
Dalek Dave wrote: allow me to work to be a platinum in time
But you already have.
This "new" reputation system is simply long, LONG overdue recognition for what you have already done, what you have already contributed.
You've earned this, Dave, and I ain't takin' it back  cheers,

For me it's the other way around, I used to be Gold now I'm back to silver.
I don't mind that much since I don't see that much difference apart from the fact I no longer have the new articles needing approval right but I'll get there again
What I do find strange tho is that I'm a platinum debator (  ) and since I rarely post anything outside of the programming forums (or QA) I think I shouldn't be platinum or the threshold for it should be higher.

It seems I've joined you, I was barely over the conditions for gold before, and I really didn't feel I deserved it having not contributed properly. I haven't posted in the programming forums for a while and I've not written an article, though I hope to some day (I just can't pick a topic that either isn't covered already or I'm not sure anyone will actually find interesting).
At the very least, I don't think I'll have earned my platinum without having posted an article.He who makes a beast out of himself gets rid of the pain of being a man.

K that's really weird.
Your platinum with 7,976 total points I'm silver with 8,657 total points.
Me thinks something is wrong

|
| Yeah, but if you squint then silver looks like platinum ------------------------------------

I thought it was silver at first until I hovered for a tooltip
I guess the individual statuses are in themselves "weighted" for the overall calculations. On comparison, I'm more of an organiser, I guess that's weighted more?He who makes a beast out of himself gets rid of the pain of being a man.

Hmm had to check what organiser means again.
I guess I'm not much of a voter

Just kidding!
Actually I wanted to point out that what you see when you Preview a post is not what the post looks like when you post it.
Example: http://www.codeproject.com/KB/threads/MultithreadDelegate.aspx?msg=3405683#xx3405683xx
When I created this post, it had a blank line at the end, so it wouldn't run into my sig. When it was posted, the blank line was removed (I just edited it, and the blank line is indeed totally gone).
I'm guessing you're doing this because some retard put a million blank lines at the end of a post, but I wish you would at least retain one blank line.

Yay! Non reputation!
There are couple of issues with the current formatting.
1. We're stripping you of a newline. Bad programmer. Bad!
2. We're stripping newlines after closing >'s indiscriminantly. Lazy programmer! Lazy!
Both will be fixed.cheers,

When there are few tags to a question in QA, the 'votebar' and the three info boxes are placed fine. But when there's several tags, the info boxes and the votebar gets moved apart, making it look a bit 'ugly'.

This happens on Firefox 3.6 by the way.
Also, the info boxes and the votebar are placed waaay too much to the left - sometimes they are almost literally leaning against the question.
They seem to get placed right next to the question text, instead of being placed in the very right side where they were placed before. Is this on purpose?![Green Alien | [Alien]](https://www.codeproject.com/script/Forums/Images/alien.gif) Kristian Sixhoej
