In the pop-up, the negative points are ignored. There is a reason, but that's between Chris and the Hamsters.

Time for an unsigned int to become a signed int , it seems.

Nearly
The actual issue was we were doing a JOIN on a table that defines the designations for each level. For negative points were were ignoring the designation since we didn't want to make a song and dance about someone having negative points. The issue is we can't ignore these points when calculating the total.

This answer Most powerful encryption in C#[^] contains a looooong link in it, and this is extending outwith the boundary of the answer area even when increasing the window size and remains obscured under the panels at the right.
Think the wrapping needs sorting.

Fixed it in IE7+, Chrome and Firefox 5. I'll have the fix released next upload.
Thanks mate.

I think that in order to delete an answer, the deleter has to have more authority points than the person whose answer they're deleting. Christian and I both have recently had answers deleted for no apparent reason, and if the total rep of the person whose answer is being dleted is higher than the total rep of the deleter, the deleter must be forced to provide a reason for deleting the answer.

Not a bad idea...

I think any deletion should require a reason. That way, at least there is some hope that the 'GIVE ME CODEZ URGENT' brigade might begin to learn what they should do differently, if they read their deletion comments. No-one should be deleting so many posts that entering a reason becomes a burden.

That makes you guys untouchable, and that's not healthy.
Let's say, hypothetically, of course, that one of you has a habit of posting a comment as an answer, rather than as a comment. I would not there to be a situation where no one but a couple of members can remove the non-answer.
If, however, you'd like to argue that there should not be a delete option at all, and that instead we should focus on the reporting system, then that's definitely something I'll discuss.

Damn, you noticed. Let's try again later, guys.

Requiring a deleter to provide a reason for the deletion doesn't make the 'victim' untouchable, it just dissuades random driveby troll-deletes (and makes them easier to identify and undo.

The loans ones are the same style as the previously canned spam. only difference is there are no links. I did notice one of them was created today (never noticed the other ones), so although the links no longer are added, the spammers are still creating accounts.

I'm rather suspicious that Chris has broken the sign-up screen. I've gone through the first five pages and there wasn't a single link á la Pink List. Is this luck or has the spiced pork/ham mix been [temporarily] stopped?

The menuitems to go to particular tab groups of questions were very handy. At the moment you've either removed them or there is a bug which is eating them. Please bring them back!

They are back. Sorry about it

Hi,
i answred some of questions posted other members in code project. my answer was best of my knowledge . but my answer is down voted.i felt like insulting me

0. Double posting won't help. Delete the other thread rather than getting yourself hit.
1. That is what is called life. It's not that you didn't try your best it's that your answer wasn't complete or correct. I looked at one and it was poorly phrased and added nothing to the previous answers.
2. This is a community. In Q&A the aim is to provide an answer, not for each member to answer the question. If there is an existing answer, don't answer unless you are offering an alternative.

Maybe this also has to do with your, putting it mildly now, interesting behaviour. First of all you seem to be quite resistant to advice regarding textspeak in your questions and answers. Then I've observed that you seem to change your screen name around quite a bit, going so far as to post comments to your solutions under a changed screen name. I don't quite have a grasp on what you're trying to achieve by this, but it definitely is annoying and has a troll feel to it.
If you have a plausible explanation for us I'm sure we'd follow your elaborations quite intently.
Best Regards,

Well just read aloud this message you posted. You'll most likely find that no one else is insulting you any more than you yourself are.

It's not an insult as much as it is a critique of your answer.
