Did your FF upgrade from 5.0 to 4.0 ? 
Just kidding, I don't see it either, but you are the only one who spotted it.

This one has me a bit puzzled.
The banner add on top give a error when you right click on it and choose 'open link in new tab'.
But it works fine with ctrl+click and just click.
The really weird part tho is. Once I'v ctrl+click 'ed it once then the right click + menu works.
After a refresh of the cp page the right click doesn't work anymore.
The url that is hit when right clicking is : http://a.lakequincy.com/8820-C35E7B7[^]
The error:
Server Error
404 - File or directory not found.
The resource you are looking for might have been removed, had its name changed, or is temporarily unavailable.

I'm currently getting the error Error: Object reference not set to an instance of an object.. Ticket: 4734859. Server: Web24 in all Forums, (Lounge, Site Bugs/Suggestions etc.), but not in the Q & A area. I may not see anyone pick this up till it gets rectified, and it may already be reported and this is a repost but I just can't tell
Cheers,
Rhys

It is a repost
Hoping you get this in your mail box.
Do a couple ctrl+f5 till you hit another server. I had the same problem.
Seems to be web24 only, web21 and 22 are working fine.

I'm getting the following error:
Error: Object reference not set to an instance of an object.. Ticket: 4733934. Server: Web24
Been like this for a while now
Don't know if this message will go thru since I'm not getting the forum anymore (page loads but no threads)
[EDIT]
Seems to be server bound
Everything is fine on web21

The recent changes to reputation points piqued my interest and I starting looking into the things we get points for.
I'm a little confused.
My understanding of gamification is that it's a bit like taxes and incentives. You use it to promote the kind of activity you want to see in your community.
That being the case, the awarding of points for different activities gives us an insight into the kind of community that the organisers would like to create.
Which is why I'm really confused about what it is that CodeProject wants to be.
For example, here are a few recent events from my log....
Signing In - 1 point. (nothing wrong there, it's good to promote regular use)
Post Message - 1 point. (again, good, reward people who contribute)
Source Code from Article Downloaded - 1 point (Huh! 1 point, for a download, oookaaay)
Message Upvoted - 24 points (this is taking the piss). I write a moderately witty post and I get multiple awards of 24 points. How can this possibly be 24 times better than providing source code that someone goes to the trouble of downloading?
Note, I'm not complaining about the system. Frankly if there was no reputation system at all on CodeProject it wouldn't make one iota of difference to me.
I'm interested in Gamification, and CodeProject is an interesting case of it.
I'm just trying to understand why the system is gamed the way it is. I'm sure a lot of thought goes into the kind of site CodeProject should be, and how to game the points system to nudge things in that direction.

I think the downloads should be weighted too.
But then if you give an answer, you can get multiple 40 points for the answer, that seems fair.
I think the main problem is the downloads were too heavily scored.
Perhaps the first 50 should be at a higher rate, the next 50 at a lower rate etc until after say 300 downloads they fall to 1 point each.

Its not. But that is exactly why there are categories like Author, Debator etc.
Debator points are good to earn and make you feel part of the site.
However, they may or may not be contributing to helping others compared to downloading source code etc.
Download points go into the Author category.
I don't think I'm able to convey what I mean here completely, but I hope you get a general idea.

I think you brought up some interesting points. These points have been debated in the past to some extent but they are good points none the less. +5

Abhinav[^], has hit the nail on the head with regards to the flaw in your analysis.
Richard A. Dalton wrote: Message Upvoted - 24 points
These points only go in the debator category, so they only increase your 'standing' in The Lounge and the other general forums. This enhances the 'self-moderating' ethos of the site. I, for example, am platinum in Debator, indicating I have a fair understanding of what goes down well and what doesn't in the Lounge. I can therefore use my voting weight to encourage the well recieved posts, or discourage the No-no's. A good example is non-Western newbies posting bad jokes in the Lounge, most only ever make that mistake once, if there was no rating system, we would have to tell the newbie direct that his joke was sh*t and....well as you can imagine, he will probably be put off for life.
If you look at my Authority rep though, I'm paper-status or something low-ranked, so if I voted on your article, my vote will be weighted very lightly despite having a reasonably high overall Rep. Therefore, a platinum member can look at your article, decide my vote was unfair, and more than compensate for it in the process.
You have to remember the overall rep is not used to weight your contribution, only the category rep relevant to the site feature you are acting in. The rep system is almost perfect as it is, and does serve a purpose.
