I have noticed that the rep numbers on your profile's "About" tab differs from the (supposedly) same numbers on the "Reputation" tab (the graph)
Why is that and which numbers are correct???
|
|
|
|
|
Probably a caching issue.
I think the about tab is updated immediately and the graph takes a while, or the other way around 
|
|
|
|

it is one or a few bugs. Typically a few points are just missing on the reputation graph (I'm currently missing 12 points there). It gets corrected whenever the powers that be decide on recalculating everything.

Any chance you can remove the new icon when the refresh button is clicked? It would be nice on F5 too, but I can understand if you don't want it on that for fear of too many postbacks. Thanks!

Not a good idea IMO. When several messages are marked NEW and one refreshes the page, why would all those new messages loose their NEW mark? I probably refresh before I've read them all.
|

Didn't think about that. However, my original request is that when they click on the "Refresh" link to the right of the "New Message" link in each forum, then it would be nice if it cleared the new icon for those pages. Another option is to change the color for the newer ones that appear from the last time you refreshed. The problem is for extremely long threads, most of the posts have the new icon, and I click on refresh to see when a new one arrives based on an email I received. If all the posts remain new, then I really can't differentiate them until I read them all, which isn't always my intent.

The way I see it, CP is not keeping individual history, the NEW marks are just a comparison of your visit time with each and every message creation time; storing such per member would yield truckloads of new booleans. No one is keeping track what you did and didn't read on a page. Furthermore, the layout options include "expand all" and "expand one" so it becomes just impossible.

True, but it appears that it currently does something like "if within a certain amount of time, mark as new". What I would like to see is "if within an epsilon amount of time, mark as 'just in'" (new icon of a different color), else "if within a certain amount of time, mark as new". That should certainly be doable without major modification to the code. Heck, the epsilon could also be setup as a personal preference.

So a "new" icon and a "just posted" signifier?

Exactly. Although, the text "just posted" might be a tad long. How about "new" vs "now"?
|
|
|
|
|
that would be OK for me, as is the current situation.

Please see this[^] post and its context. The post is not from me.
I realise that it is only a joke and am not offended by it but I do feel that the ability to do this sort of thing is somewhat undesireable, to say the least.

Why not just change your id to Rajesh R Subramaniac and get some sweet revenge.
It's time for a new signature.

I am above such childish pranks.
Besides, I didn't think of it.

Nevermind everybody, I've decided that this is really just funny and doesn't need any further attention. Thanks anyway!

It's a fairly obvious imitation, though I'm not excusing it. We do already have in place tools that disallow spoofing another member's name by using alternate characters.
Edit: looks like we missed out on one of the alternate letters. I'll add it.

I wonder if you got all the letters, Chriﯼ Mﮫunder. 
Maybe an AI algorithm to detect similarities in letters would be appropriate (though probably entirely too much work).

I think I got most of the ones that actually count.

You might want to add one for a fairly convincing "r", Chris Maundeг.

Can this be done completely? There are literally hundreds of letters that one could pick from the Unicode character map (which would resemble a given alphabet). I'm curious to know what would be the approach.
May be I can do hack tests after you're done implementing it?

Shouldn't it be fixed user name ? or changes may have some delay like 2 hrs.
