I would like to emhpasize that the word "properly" isn't necessarily associated with the "humor" we see in thejokes in the lounge lately. We've been asking for a jokes forum wor - oh - nine years now, as well as a sports forum, and a CCC forum.

I would like to add a "rep points" forum to that list.

No.
The funniest thing about this particular signature is that by the time you realise it doesn't say anything it's too late to stop reading it.
My latest tip/trick

While replying to any comment using 'Reply' icon, comment textarea does open up but has no focus. If, I start typing then the page scrolls down (sometimes it does and sometimes not) and I need to go, focus manually in comment textarea to write up.
This is not the case when we simply add a comment. In case of 'Add Comment', focus is already there and we can just type our comment.
Might be picky, but I found it inconsistent and a simple usability feature missed out.

I have the same problem with the answer textarea for general answers, although I don't have it for comments, they work fine for me (comments and replies to comments).

Note: I did not get +5+2 before.
PS. I bookmarked and un-bookmarked it just for the sake of curiosity if something evil happens.

Thats correct.
You get 2 rep points for bookmarking an item. The author of an item gets 5. As you were the author, you get 5+2 = 7
Then you undid the book mark, so -2 marks for removing the bookmark, and -5 for having a bookmark removed from your article.
All correct!

No, because I did NOT get 5+2 points, just -5 and -2.

How long did you wait between bookmarking and unbookmarking?
How about trying, bookmark again, wait till it appears on your rep list, and then unbookmark, and wait for that to appear.

About 20 seconds

OK, gonna try

I have an impression that bookmarking an article by it's owner does not change rep by design. However, un-bookmaring does and this is the buggy point.

That shouldn't matter - both actions should show up in the Recent Reputation Points list.

If I reply to my message by left clicking the reply button I get a warning about replying to my own message. If I middle click to reply in a new tab I get no warning.

Also, if I right click the reply link and say open in a new tab, there is no warning.

The site assumes that anyone advanced enough to click one of the other mouse buttons doesn't need a warning.

This is happening in FF3.6.13, it's not just an IE problem.

If I Ctrl+click in FireFox it works, but if I right clcik and select "open in new tab" there is no warning. I suspect that the mapping of the middle button to "open in tab" is opening the reply page in a new tab using the second, not first, method, meaning no click is being generated and there's nothing for us to grab on to.

So is there any point in refiling my bug report with mozilla?

In preview/output, It generates double new lines between 'Quote text' and message. I think here one new line will be fine because when we take many quotes in a message, the message height is very high by the double new lines.
I'll show you an example for this by below message.

Double new lines between Quote & message.

Single new line between Quote & message.
I hope this will help you. Also notice this message height, here I have taken only 2 Quotes, just think if our people take around 5-10 quotes...that's it.
