I'm not sure if this has been reported before, so please don't send out the hamsters to get me if that's the case.
Anyway, I just noticed that the code browser is having a problem with escape characters.
See this[^] page - view the file CSRcon.cs and scroll down to line 52. You'll see that everything after that line is treated as a string, even though the string has ended.
It seems to be the escape character (marked with bold) in the following piece of code that's causing the issue:
string command = "rcon \"" + challenge_rcon + "\" " + rconPassword + " " + rconCommand + "\n";

After major site changes, this happened with Q&A forum posts. We reported it and Chris corrected the issue in short interval. Looks like something similar out here.

It's got nine 1 votes and is still not auto-deleted. Most folks don't know that they should mark it as abuse instead of just 1-voting. An abuse vote is a 1 too but ii also sets another flag so that when the number of votes hit a threshold, the message is deleted. Recently this threshold has been too high to be useful though. Unless you post a bad grammar joke on the Lounge and a dozen folks vote on it.

Thanks, it has been auto-magically deleted. I don't know how this works exeactly, but perhaps a formula combining "Abuse Reports" and "1s" together could be used to lower the threshold?

Yeah, that may work. If there are 2 or 3 abuse votes already, then every other 1 should be treated as an abuse vote too.
|
|
|
|

Or Abuse vote = 3 "points" (or whatever weighting) and 1 vote = 1 "point", then when the total "points" reach a certain level the message gets banned. I know what you mean by the lounge BTW.

It's good to see that voting a 5 in QA now requires a comment, however this seems to be a little inconsistant.
For example, the answer I posted to this question[^] has received a greater number of 5 votes than there are comments

It doesn't require a comment. You can just close the little box and vote anyway.

5s don't require a comment. I still include a comment anyway as I think it's more encouraging to the poster.

Hi Nish,
Yeah, I agree

Comment while voting is not a mandatory here if you are voting for 4 or 5. If you are voting less than 4, it is a must one. If you want to put just a small comment instead of voting, there is a link for that.
Don't forget to Click on [Vote] and [Good Answer] on the posts that helped you.

I am well aware of the comment widget, I just assumed (wrongly) that comments on upvotes were required as they are on downvotes. All cleared up by the previous answers.

this will be turned into a bug report as soon as it occurs, it is only a matter of minutes.
"Modified on ..." message sometimes breaks into sig. Have seen this happen occasionally.
EDIT1 first edit, after 3 minutes /EDIT1
EDIT2 second edit, after 6 minutes; the modified message got added correctly; it did go wrong here[^] although I did not touch the sig at all. /EDIT2
EDIT3 it seems to go wrong upon an additional edit; so the scenario is:
create message
wait 5 minutes
edit message (this adds "Modified on..." correctly)
edit message again (this throws away the original closing /div tag from the sig, probable cause is length of sig+"Modified on..." exceeds the limit)
/EDIT3

Well, might be the case but i am sure this will be added to the bottom of 'to-do' list.
Who would had noticed it (other than you )! Rarely someone(that too with a long signature...) would edit his own message more than 2 times!
|

|
|
|
People should not be punished for conveying as much information as a sig allows, while iteratively improving their replies.
|
|

|

I fully agree with you!
It's just that I was trying to figure out the number of people, who would be facing this issue!

Verified and added to the bug list. Thanks Luc.

Just going through our TODO and noted that this was fixed a while ago.

Indeed, fixed and improved.

When a user deletes another users question, where does this come in the rep system? editor or organiser or somewhere else? not clear in the faq.
|
|
|
|
|
it should remove all Participant points (deleting a question defeats the whole purpose of Q&A), and add 100 to Organizer (most questions show a lack of structure) unless the question got up-voted already.

Not when the OP of the question, created 5 of the same question in quick succession! some identical, some with slightly different formatting, and some with slightly more info added.
Think they eventually got the message from my comments and started to use the improve question button!

you really should go back to your books and study some more.
