Can you please hit Ctrl+F5 on the page and try again?
There was a CSS entry that may have been screwing things up for you. (Unlikely since I'm not sure IE8 supported it properly, but it's worth a shot)

If you click the Sign In link, you get taken to a full page - that way you can by-pass the drop down completely if you are having issues with it.

Not sure if it was reported before, but...:
I asked a question[^], Sergey Alexandrovich Kryukov answered it.
Received the notification and the email that someone has answered my question 4 times.
Are the hamsters drunk that they see it 4 times?

Probably drunk.
Seriously though, it could be your email server, or something in between. Our code doesn't loop 4 times and if we had a systemic issue like then chances are we would have seen it either in testing or real life, not to mention the hordes of angry people yelling at us.
If you can look at the meta data on the emails themselves you'll be able to check if they are the same (as in, the exact same) email, or if they are separate emails we've sent individually. That may help narrow down what's happening.

I've had a couple of double and one trebble notification recently. I worked out that it was because the poster edited the comment a couple of times to get it right but perhaps I'm mistaken.

No, because I got the notification 4 times near my name at the top right hand side of the page, too.
You know, this shiny white number on the red background (Which is always above 1000 on your account )...
I tend more to Matthews idea, what happens if the poster of an answer does edit the answer right after posting it?

Ah - that certainly changes things. Thanks.

Welcome. Sorry if I did not say this in the OP clear enough.

I have seen the multiple notifications, but never multiple emails.
This is not as bad as another site I used to be on (I think they shut down), where each reply would give around 50-100 notifications/emails. I terminated my account there (as did most other members) after the site's development team said that was 'by design'. WTF?

Which browser are you using? That doesn't show up on any of the browsers I'm using.

Chrome, latest version. It was there for some time, I couldn't get about to posting until now.
I think it's the same on IE too, will check next time I'm on a PC
|

|

Home page is fine for me on latest version of Chrome.
Use the best guess
|
|
|
|

Same hear. No problems with IE 9 or 10, and latest Chrome and FireFox.
The problem is on your end.

I also see something like that once in a while, like right now in IE8 (on XP SP3). It looks the same in Chrome. When I sign out, the white space area is much smaller, primarily due to the "Articles needing approval" and "Cast your vote!" (article of the month) sections not being available.
However, I am actually seeing "the opposite" on my phone (IE10 on WP8), CodeProject set to Full-site, not Mobile mode. There I see a white space area under the Product Showcase. The text in all the sections in that right hand column are unreadable at the normal zoom level (except for the section headings; Our Community, Cast Your Vote, etc.), whereas I am able to read the article introductions on the left hand side.

It's because, as a high-rep member, you can see the 'Articles needing approval' list which is a little long at the moment. This pushes things down.

OK, no problem then. Just checked after signing out - the white area is reduced on Chrome and non-existent on IE (8 and 10, no 9 available). I wonder what causes even a small difference in white space... probably the Japanese OS I'm using. No extensions, and Ad-block is disabled for CP.

Has anyone else noticed the uptick of CUDA and particularly OpenCV questions in QA recently? Has the time come for a GPU programming forum and possibly a Multimedia\GPU articles section?

Something like this[^]?

Yes just like that except a little less buried in the menu tree. I thought there must be an article category in there somewhere but I didn't find it when I went looking. Maybe that's me or maybe it is in the wrong place.
Whether there's enough interest for a separate discussion forum is another issue.

The C# Questions[^] currently displays the following first few items:
- Q1, 0 answers, 3 views, age = 1 min
- Q2, 2 answers, 24 views, age = 7 mins
- Q3, 1 answer, 2.9K views, age = 9 mins
- Q4, 2 answers, 40 views, age = 52 mins
- Q5, 1 answers, 26 views, age = 52 mins
While certainly not impossible, 2.9K views seemed out of boundary, esp. given the nature of the question, leading me to believe there may be a formatting bug.

Maybe the OP didn't use a real email address with their account and it was REALLY urgentzz.
F5, F5, F5, F5, F5, F5... F5, F5, F5.

That is just the last time there was an update in it.
If it is the one I am looking at, the Question was posted 7 Feb, 2012. So, well over a year ago. There are no edits or new answers present, so I am guessing the member shown as having updated it last posted an answer, which got downvoted and then deleted. It is a fairly new member with 6 Authority points, so that would make sense.
