I prefer 1. What about you?

So do I as it is the simpler of those two, and there isn't a real need for (2) I guess.
However I now prefer 1+ which says:
have the defaults be settable only on the settings page
AND add the message "changing these settings will apply to this message only; permanently changing the defaults can be handled on the settings page" on the edit message page
and I would suggest you also make "the settings page" a hyperlink, which opens the page and tab right away.

as do I.
3x12=36
2x12=24
1x12=12
0x12=18

Okay that make sense but its easy to solve this. The server can check that if user updates the message within 1 or 2 minutes then update the settings else not.

Noooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooo.
Please don't bring time into things that don't need it, it becomes untestable and completely unobservable.

maybe you never notice when you edit your message after 2 or 3 minutes, its title get appended by "[modified]" so while checking this, settings can be updated. Its not BFD.

This is the wrong way to spell color.
I struggled to find my personal links in the top task bar.I find the font size to small and the COLOUR
not vivid enough.
|

|
|
|
What colour would you like? Plain blue?

If you must change it, I'd suggest Vivid Black.
And maybe bold for all of them, not just "Watched Items".

I would prefer Octarine.

I'm not a bit surprised you would.
May I suggest you convince Chris to offer full skinning support, so you can have it your way without hampering those with a somewhat limited spectrum.
BTW: I do hope we can get there without engaging in never ending WPF/SilverLight adventures.

I just had a look into the VB.NET-forum: nearly every message on the first two pages had been voted 5. Somebody on a 5-voting-rampage? Testing a voting bot? Or just coincidence?

Maybe they were all just pleased with themselves.
In fact, hold your hands in front of the screen and feel the waves of smugness it generates!

I feel nothing. Maybe you have an old CRT screen and that's the static charge you feel there?

That is called a Basic Organizer. He even gets awarded some rep points for doing so!

What, one does get points for upvoting messages? I really should read the rep-faq. Again.

Yes, have five points!

I now see Bugs/Sucks Organizers; this site is going downhill rapidly.

No, you don't get anything for down-voting. And I think that isn't fair.
|
|
|
|

You get 1 point for voting a message up OR down, and you can only get 25 points per day by doing that.
HOWEVER, your vote adds/subtracts rep points for the user that actually posted the message, and the number of points applied depends on your own reputation. For instance, if I vote a message/article/tip/blog a 5, it adds (I think) 40 points to that person's rep because I have a high reputation point value. Voting a 1 results in an equally dramatic reduction of points. I could vote someone back to the reputation stoneage if I wanted to.

Yeah, I remember last week's thread about this[^] from the Lounge.

No John, a down-voter does not earn rep points. It used to be so for a very short time, but that acted like an open invitation to uni-voters, so Chris modified it. The FAQ is correct on the subject: for every organizer source, it either says "up-vote" or "report", but not "down-vote".
My suggestion on the subject has been to indeed reward downvotes also, but only for sufficiently reputed voters. I want a scoring system to be as symmetrical as it can be.
