Thank you so much.

On the Holding Page you are copywrited between 1999 and 2008
Just thought you ought to know.

The reputation recalculation has been stopped for a second time due to it simply being a bad time of the week to bog down the servers for 24 hrs. I've made some changes which should add back a bunch of points people had reported missing, as well as add more from more exhaustive log analysis.
So please bear with me until the weekend. I apologise, but we've hit the limit of what our database can handle.

Adding to it, last time you forgot to add rep points for reported articles/answers/questions while re-calculation.
If it has been/will be considered, then great! if not, just a reminder!

|
|
Reported articles / messages were one of the things added.

and then there still is the matter of a 200 author point discrepancy between my about tab and rep graph. They have never disagreed on author points before, and never on more than 20 points overall.

I noticed in the Who's Who page ordered by rep points some discrepancy. Could this be related to stoppage of calculation.
Say, if you go to page 7 or 9 (at least the ones I noticed), scroll down and you will notice some higher rep points below the lower points. There are few of them sprinkled through out the page.

The box right of the top text in the lounge doesn't load.
So the lounge stay's on a loading status in the browser.
Kind of annoying
Never mind, seems to be loading fine now, strange I tried several refreshes but only after posting this message and going back to the lounge did it actually load.

I've just done a fairly major update to the code and database so you would have seen the remnants of startup slowness.

What kind?
The one's you can shoot at them or the steady one's?
With the later I can see a lot of problems

I got this error so many times.
We have tried to add your answer 3 times without success. Our servers are just a little overworked. Sorry.
I Checked current online users also 23,174. is this issue ?

Sorry about that - we just had a maintanence window that extended way past what it was meant to. You would have been caught in the general tubulence.

inside a PRE block bolded text is hard to discern from regular text.
Some people explain they have a problem ("see the bold line") and show a code snippet, and I have to guess which line is in bold. Is it just me? can we get bold text stand out more, maybe by choosing a slightly different background?

Yep - this one has bugged me as well. For best results <span class="emphasis" >some text...</span> (or class="highlight") is recommended. Changing the background colour, or adding a border, may make things look a little messy, and may not solve the problem when people say "See the bold line" because they will instead see a line that's outlined or coloured, potentially causing confusion.

Instead of relying on folks knowing how to do the span thing, I think we need a editor button/link like we have for "Code Block", "Link", etc. Call it "Code Highlight" or something like that.

That may be useful, yes, but would not be good enough as some people will not use it and continue to use the B tag. And then there are the existing messages.
So I would still want a bold part inside a PRE tag to get that applied automatically, i.e. add the SPAN thingy to everything bold (only inside PRE) when it gets entered or stored, and remove it when the message is shown in the edit page, so the author never sees the code.
example, three views:
regular view, how it could look
blinkTimer.Tick+=(s1, e1) => {
blinkNowShows=!blinkNowShows & withBlink;
if (dgvUsers!=null) dgvUsers.Invalidate();
};
actually sent to client, in regular view
blinkTimer.Tick+=(s1, e1) => {
<span class='emphasis'><b>blinkNowShows=!blinkNowShows & withBlink;</b></span>
if (dgvUsers!=null) dgvUsers.Invalidate();
};
editor view
blinkTimer.Tick+=(s1, e1) => {
<b>blinkNowShows=!blinkNowShows & withBlink;</b>
if (dgvUsers!=null) dgvUsers.Invalidate();
};
[ADDED] of course, a new class could be defined (rather than using emphasis) and kept a bit of a secret, something the author is pretty unlikely to come up with himself.

I suggest you automate it, see my above reply to John.

Prevent the person who posted the question from posting an answer to that question.

You mean force them to edit the OP or post a comment in reply to a comment or answer?
If so, good idea.

I don't think we should do that. I have answered myself in the past, and posted that answer as an answer.

Do you mean by that you accepted your own answer?
I actually believe that kind of defeats the system. My suggestion would be that one can modify ones question by adding the solution to the question and then mark the question as solved. I do see the point of course that sometimes one comes up with an answer to the own question, but making it open to gaining rep points also leaves an open door to abuse.
I hope I didn't misinterpret you intentions.
Feel free to communicate your thoughts on this.
