Vote deletion isn't an option at present. 
Today's lesson is brought to you by the word "niggardly". Remember kids, don't attribute to racism what can be explained by Scandinavian language roots.

No I meant my original question was really stupid. I want Chris to delete this post because I was dumb.

That isn't a valid reason. If Chris were to delete all dumb messages, he could retire several servers.

Oh didn't you notice, analogous to square roots, they recently introduced rectangular, circular, and diamond roots to determine the size of the corresponding shapes when given the area. Luc Pattyn[^]

I have gathered 4 pages of bookmarks in the 'My Bookmarks' section. Now, when I try to enter the 'My Bookmarks' section, it comes up empty: see here[^]
Is this a new feature, or is there a problem with the database?

Dear Santa Chris,
My name is Adam. I'm a lazy-ass .NET programmer who really, quite honestly, doesn't like moving from his rather comfortable desk chair. For that reason, it would make sense for me to find a job (in general, of course, but more specifically) that allows me to remain in my comfortable spot whilst making money. Since I've been a good boy this year (well, as far as my official criminal record is concerned) do you think you could make a little button or a doodad of sorts that lets one filter out all except telecommuting jobs during a job search?
Thanks,
Adam Maras
P.S. A shiny new racecar would be nice too

I'm sorry I never replied to this, but I just wanted to say this is the best-worded suggestion I've read in a long, long time.
In any case, the suggestion is in our system and we're now planning Job Board 2.0: Lazy-ass.NET version.
'cause it just makes sense...cheers,

I think it would be cool if when voting we could have the option to be anonymous or not. If we choose not to be anonymous a new symbol appears that users can hover the pointer over and see the list of voters who chose to not be anonymous.
Doing this we can share our vote if we choose and thereby build stronger relationships with peers or let them know we didn't agree or whatever. Yet we still preserve that innate ability to vote and remain private. The default of course for this is to be "anonymous" and the voter simply clicks the "public" option or whatever and that's how it goes.
I think it'd be nifty.

I disagree.
Allowing anonymous voting would promote voting abuse - again.

I don't think he's suggesting anonymous voting, I think he's suggesting the opposite: explicitely allowing members to see what your vote was.
Currently only articles force you to give up any voting info. We could make it so that messages, catalog items, anything votable would have a link that showed who voted what for those who choose to make public their votes.

Exactly. I just gave someone a 5 and rarely do I 5. I want them to know it was me who gave them a 5. When I give someone a 1 which rarely do I do. I want them to know it was me. But if it's some stupid troll that we are voting to block the post then *NO* they don't need to know who I am.
YES FOR LOUNGE VOTING ONLY!

I saw an ad in the header a couple of days ago that I'd like to follow up on today - but today is Ironspeed and Quest day. Is there anyway a repositor of all the switchable ads could be added - or is it there and I am too dumb to find it?

Clicking a link on my "Latest Messages" page, I got the wrong page of the right forum, i.e. due to one or more new messages added in that forum, my message just moved to the next page. Clicking NEXT showed the right page with the message already open though.
Seems like a bug, since the message links contain a forum ID and a message ID.

Weird. Is it repeatable?
Our system knows where messages are and deliberately tries to display the message in the forum with buffer messages above and below (if possible).

I've had this happen too.
I think that it happens when a new post arrives, just as the message is about to display. The page sort of does a double refresh and your message slides off into the next page. It all happens too quickly to be sure though, it just looks like that is what is happening.

I am not sure, I did not try a second time.
Next time it happens, I'll give it a better look. If it requires me going to call a message that happens to be at the bottom of a page AND someone adding a message to that forum then chances are slim for it to occur.

I had the same issue yesterday. I just pressed Next, and the message I should have seen was the first one on the next page. I assumed it was some sort of caching issue, and I just caught the system as a message was added earlier.
You'll now want me to remember which one it was... erm...
