Just to add one more observation, this message looked fine when I was previewing it in IE9, but the indents were gone in the posted version.
Fixign now. | But who's fixing the fixign? |
|
|
|
|

Yes, IE9, yet again, moves the goal posts.
I've managed a fix that I'll have deployed within a day.

It's working but there is validation issue, for example if I try to login
with my email id like .......@hotmail,com the it's showing run time error page.
I upload a screenshot of the error page at the link below:

I was just checking the weather and must have slipped on the keyboard and typed all that in accidentally.

Ah. The old accidentally slipped defense - beloved of naked blokes in Accident and Emergency departments the world over.

What's disturbing is that I typed a bit more of an elaboration on the "slipped" theme and thought "nah - no one will get the reference".
I really should have known better...

Hi,
I want to suggest something about downvoting system of a post.
If somebody is downvoting a post then he/she must fill the reason of downvoting.
And that Reason should be compulsory.
Why I am suggesting it?
Answer: Suppose I have answered a question and it might be wrong or not perfect.
Now somebody wants to downvote it and if He/She will provide the reason then it will help to improve the quality of answer which are going to be given.
One more thing, I will be able to know my mistakes.
Regards
Ankit

We have been through this dilemma for a long time now. There is no perfect way of running the voting system on this site. I think Bob is doing the best he can right now.

In most cases downvotes from the OP are because the answer did not fully please them. Not much we can do about it.
What can be done is for people to spend some time upvoting good responses. And not just upvote, also post a comment saying that you did it. It won't get you many points, but it's a very valuable service that you are doing for the website.

We had that system but it wasn't a success. Down voting dropped drastically.
You will find that it's mostly newbies who down vote without a reason. I have seen that most reputed members will not vote down an answer but rather add a comment explaining the problem and giving the answerer a chance to modify it. They mostly up-vote the good answers which keeps the best answer at the top. So the purpose is anyways achieved.

Pretty much.

So are you revisiting this issue.
I would think that the following simple rules should apply:
1. No reason, no downvote. This would apply across all of CP.
2. No downvote for OP.

... when Articles, Blogs and Tips were separated into different tabs on the main screen. Just my opinion.
while (e) { Coyote(); }
|
|
|
|
|
Agree
|
|
|
|
|
|
Yes, I agree too. My Tip/Trick gone from there.. 
|
|
|
|
|
Yes
|
|
|
|
|
... me too Agree on this. It was very nice. Atleast, we were able to see Articles, Blogs and Tips separately. Now, we may miss new Article, Blog and/or Tips in the long run. What the hell is going on? I like the previous tab structure.

It was great
- if you had a wide screen
- if everyone clicked all tabs instead of just scanning the top tab and leaving
- if we promised never to add another tab (oops, too late)
We upgraded Alternate Tips to be their own thing which meant a new tab appeared. As soon as this happened things no longer fit. We're also adding a new tab and this would have simply made the problem worse. Further: who clicks the other tabs? And more importantly: why should someone who has posted a technical blog, or a tip, or an alternate tip, etc, not have the same exposure as an article author? They are all information, albeit it in different forms, lengths, and from different sources, but they are all worthy of being presented front and centre to reward those who took the time to post.

Tips and blogs are usually easier to write, so eventually they'll out-number articles. When this happens, the front page will end up having 2 or fewer articles at most times. Not good at all I'd think.
At least consider having one tab for articles only, and one tab for everything (articles + tips + blogs).
