I'd quite like to know how long people read before they press the download button or post a vote in the forum.
If you were to add 0 point in the reputation history each time someone visit an article, we could sort of guess how long they've been reading before giving you a 1 or a 5.

How could you be certain that the user is actually reading for all that time and has not gone to lunch, fallen asleep, switched to a different app etc.

... or swapping to do some actual work in the office. 
I wasn't, now I am, then I won't be anymore.

Why would they do that? Uh oh, boss alert!

It would be an interesting stat. My feeling, though, is that there would be many cases where people read, leave, comeback and download.

You've gotten me in a nutshell there, Chris. I tend to read the articles and often save the article page so that I can read it offline in my leisure, then if I want to dig deeper, I come back to the article to download the resources.
I wasn't, now I am, then I won't be anymore.

I've checked your profile and can't see SQL SERVER in any filter on your profile.

Someone with site moderator privileges decided it wasn't suitable for the lounge. I suspect they were upset about the use of testicles in it, although I don't think it breached the KSS.

18 years ago I had a memorable dinner in Patitiri, Alonissos ( that's a greek island ).
When we entered the resurant, they had something on the barbecue that recieved a lot of attention by the locals - so we ordered whatever it was that excited them so. The waiter described the dish as souvlaki from different parts of lamb ... and it certainly was

There is also a long standing bug that has affected a few authors where downloads for one article were being counted towards a different article. We are still finalising the corrections to ensure accuracy since we don't want to do this twice. Once we're confident we have all the dots joined together we will run a full rep recalc.

See the message at the top of the forum. Basically: we found and fixed an issue (an out-of-date stored procedure that somehow slipped through our deployment system) so values will start undergoing corrections.

Oh no, I lost... Well, I have no idea how many points I lost. That's the beauty of not obsessing about points.

In my case it was over 110 or so, and it was only from the "Author" category. Is it also explained by that very bug? The confusion factor was that the point history did show anything.
Thank you,
