Probably, very few.
But all it takes is one. How much help did you need when you got started? (I know it was a long time ago for me, but it was probably closer for you so you should recall better than I do)
Bad command or file name. Bad, bad command! Sit! Stay! Staaaay...

The ad that sits in the orange rectangle at the bottom of the pages keeps escaping.
But only when you open the original post on a thread in the Lounge (haven't checked other forums).
Once you also open up the replies to the post, it returns to its box at the bottom.
I assume it's a CSS issue with IE 9 (Yes, but that's what we're stuck with at work).
Sent you a screenshot of it.

On the home page you have
"You'll find the Helpouts logo on the C++, C# and ASP.NET forums, "
I can't see it anywhere.......
EDIT: I spotted this in the bumf "Helpouts on partner sites is currently available for anyone in the U.S., Australia, New Zealand, India, Brazil, Indonesia, Russia, Philippines, and Japan who needs help; however, to become a provider and give help, you must be in the U.S.", so take it is geo aware."

It shows on the right hand side of the screen. Anchored.

I have the same version of chrome. Perhaps it is only in limited release as CP is still testing?

Only reason i can come up with is it is geo aware: "Helpouts on partner sites is currently available for anyone in the U.S., Australia, New Zealand, India, Brazil, Indonesia, Russia, Philippines, and Japan who needs help; however, to become a provider and give help, you must be in the U.S."

Do you have an Ad Blocker enabled?
I had the same issue in Firefox, and disabling AdBlock+ fixed it.
What do you get when you cross a joke with a rhetorical question?

No AdBlocker issue. I am able to see it with Adblocker enabled. Its because of his location.

You beat me to it.
Yep - Google are feverishly trying to extend it to other countries as we speak. Legal issues, issues with SMSs, and the expected arrival of a much simpler, neater way to connect are all conspiring at the moment to cause a slight delay.

You'll have to change the title on the frontpage to:
"Developers with Questions, Meet Experts with Answers (but only if we love your country)."

I'm happy to put you in touch with the Google team so you can join in the harassment 
They love it, they really do. They aren't feeling any pressure at all.

You have to wonder how Russia got on the list of approved countries.

Hi,
A few clarifications for those of you who are not seeing the Google Helpouts widget.
We support current and prior major release of Chrome, Firefox, Internet Explorer and Safari on a rolling basis, this is the same for all of the Google apps:
So for those who don't have: IE 10+,FireFox 31+, Safari 5 and 6, or Chrome 31, it's time to update 
Otherwise, if you still can't see Google Helpouts widget on the designated pages, it is probably because it is not yet available in your country. We are currently working hard on making this product global, thank you for your patience

I have been going through one of the articles posted on CP, and I have found this: The Go to top button is at left-bottom side of the page, but it hides the content behind it.
So the suggestion is, instead of left-bottom side, place it on the right-bottom side of the page, that'd do good as well.
Thanks !

Can confirm it hides content, at least if you scale the page down a bit.
I'm fine with it beeing on the left hand side, but maybe just add a litte spacing after the "Related Articles" section on the left so that, if completely scrolled down, it doesn't hide anything anymore.
On the right you have (or should have! ) an ad and other content, so that isn't optimal as well.

|
|
Yeah, Okay
|
|
|
|
|
Done.

See this question: How do I append data to a '<ul>'[^]
The <ul> part displays differently inside the question and from the list...
If you encode it it displays right in the list but not for the question page.
Without encoding it is right in the question page but totally missing in the list...
Skipper: We'll fix it.
Alex: Fix it? How you gonna fix this?
Skipper: Grit, spit and a whole lotta duct tape.

Which version of IE?
cheers

Hmm. It supports IE10+ so that shouldn't be the issue.
They are still scratching heads.
