Lost your cookies, eh?
I don't remember which of the 10 or so it is that remembers your last visit time, but that's the one you've lost.

Please check out the PHP-forum, the moron who wants to lure people to his job-board (Coodeer) is spamming again.
He is also in other forums.

I have whitelisted all code project email addresses and have not gotten my daily insider in 2 weeks it is not in spam it is not coming to my mailbox at all.
I have verified my settings and I am supposed to get the newsletter and daily insider.
I think that Yahoo mail if filtering the messages out before I even receive them.
I have just changed my email on the site to go to my exchange account we will see if that helps.
I just wanted to make sure you were aware this might be an issue for other users who happen to use "YAHOOOOO mail.
Thanks,

Your email had not been confirmed in some time. I've sent a confirmation request - click on it and we'll know you're real and will start sending you emails again.

Just to let you know when you sent the email it actually went to another address because I had already changed it.
I am receiving the email now though I had to approve it for the spam filter on exchange I believe it is GFI.
You may want to test a yahoo address or I can if you would like.

seems bookmarking and being bookmarked now yields rep points.
1.
An article being bookmarked yielding author points sounds OK. However I haven't noticed any sudden rise in points, I know John did. Having around 300 bookmarks on my articles, I'm sure I would feel the sudden arrival of some 3000 points.
2.
Bookmarking something now yields 10 Organizer points, that is 10 times more than any other organizational action. This is complete nonsense IMO, for several reasons:
- how is bookmarking much more important than voting something up?
- how is bookmarking much more important than reporting inappropriate material?
- how is bookmarking one's own stuff worth anything? is it any relevant to the community?
3.
Once again it is unclear whether a rep color factors in, and if so, which one.
[ADDED]
I suggest they start awarding extra Org points for participating in the suggs&bugs forum.
Say 1 point for each suggestion/bug entered, and one more for each day it remains unresolved.

Somewhat agreed. +10 is on a higher side. Though:

Assuming, bookmarking does not use 'rep color' factors and is a fixed +10, it's not as important as a Vote which varies from 10-40 based on rep color.
Luc Pattyn wrote: how is bookmarking much more important than reporting inappropriate material?
It's an appreciation kind of for a good article. I found lots of times users just bookmark good articles and don't vote. Bookmarking does show a value to an article.
Giving more points to something which show's more value looks okay to me compared to giving less points to something that is inappropriate and will be removed after screening and not accessible anymore.
Luc Pattyn wrote: how is bookmarking one's own stuff worth anything? is it any relevant to the community?
With you on this. Bookmarking own article should not give points. Voting own article has a reason but I too don't find any good reason to give points for bookmarking own article.
Luc Pattyn wrote: Once again it is unclear whether a rep color factors in, and if so, which one.
This surely is unknown/confusing if it is in play. Though, for now, it looks to me that it's fixed.

Hey, 1 is too less, don't you think so?
Further, adding to what you are proposing, what about:
1. if a valid bug is reported, OP should get some credit?
2. if a suggestion is good, OP should get some credit?
Best bug, best suggestion of the month kind of thing - decided only by Chris/CP team.

I agree to this. Even i can't able to accept myself as a platinum member in Organizer(Today accidentally noticed my profile) . For Bookmarking, we may give 1 point which is enough like other minor things.

|

|

Does an up-vote give you +10 rep points? If so a bookmark should also give you the same since it's kinda equivalent to an up-vote.

No, organizer actions yield 1 point, except the new bookmark action, which is 10 points.
And that is for articles, tips, forum messages, whatever (including your own).
Downvoting something once yielded 1 org point, and got abused by some; therefore is has been totally abandoned, which was the wrong decision IMO.
The new invitation for abuse is: post 1,000 drivel messages and bookmark them all, that yields 10K org points. Remember: you get what you reward.
