Hi Chris,
Glad to hear you've got those two birds in your stone-sight 
One rationale I see for a "grace period" of 24 hours is that if the OP is asked to clarify their question in a comment ... let's assume they are in a time-zone that is not the same as the person who posted the comment asking for clarification ... then I think it is only fair to give the OP a chance to respond.
On a technical level, it seems to me delaying question closure for a fixed period of time after the question is posted should be possible, should not require major surgery (?).
cheers, Bill

Instead of just closing questionable questions there should be a possibility for the OP to improve the question after it has been closed because it's unclear or incomplete.
So instead of just plain rebuffing the OP he gets a message that those willing to help (well, at least those that looked at the question) don't think the question is phrased in way to be answered and some hints about what he could do to improve the question so he can refine and resubmit it.

I've been watching the ratings on Wearable Chess[^] quite closely, and I just noticed that the rating count seems to be stuck on 12.
A few hours ago it said it was a perfect 5/5, but now apparently it is a 4.87/5, which means that someone gave it a 4/5... however the rating count has not incremented to 13. I've also noticed that people have been commenting "My Vote of 5", but the count has still stayed on 12.
I could be mistaken, but I'm reporting just in case.

Sounds suspiciously like a caching issue. Give it time and it will update and clear.

I got a notice that my tip Documenting SQL Stored Procs in C# Code[^] was edited by Deeksha Shenoy to be "made publicly available". It was already public (it was already being voted on), so why was that necessary?
I don't really care for people going in and messing with my articles unless I ask them to, or unless there's some sort of obvious markup problem.

It looks like she just did a quick grammar sweep (only one word was changed) and fixed a few .Net's to .NET. From an editor perspective, sometimes doing a quick edit gives you a sense of accomplishment that helps fuel you to edit a bigger one.
But we don't want to annoy, I can tell all editors not to touch unless you ask us to.
Thanks,

Sorry for my comment on this... but in case it was really Quote: (only one word was changed)
Where is the rotten egg in your article, whom you are afraid? I do not find it, so be relaxed.

Lately, my answer was marked as "Pending". Ok, I was waiting... and waiting. Nothing happened. Than I refreshed the page. My answer was gone. I rewrote it: "Pending" again. Than suddenly I got a comment to my first answer. I refreshed the page and there it was, already accepted by OP - and the second shot still in pending state. How come these all together? Quite strange...

Your answer was trapped by the spam filter. Something you wrote made the filter think you were trying to post something you shouldn't be posting.

Well, it appeared after all, without any change. But check for yourself Voice recorder suggestion for my website[^] and tell me what should I avoid writing...
And what about the fact that OP was able to see my answer whilst I wasn't?
If this isn't a bug...

When a message is trapped by the Spam filter it gets posted to a queue on the home page, until one of us with the appropriate privilege releases it. A bit of a pain I know, but the site is getting attacked lately by spammers. Take a look in the Spam and Abuse forum to see how many get picked up every day.

Did someone forget to push the "turbo" button on one of your servers? Every page is taking 12+ seconds to get a response from the server, and judging by this thread[^], it's been going on for over six hours.
EDIT: And, as if by magic, as soon as I post this message, the response times are back to normal.

We've just spent the better part of an hour trying to work out what happened.
It turns out for a single sproc, there were two cached plans. One sensible, one not. The sensible plan was what was being shown in SQL Server Management studio (which has ARITHABORT = ON). Running under .NET, ARITHABORT is FALSE, and so our code was getting the other, crappy plan.
DBCC FREEPROCCACHE didn't work.
Messing with the connection object in .NET worked - but was clumsy.
Out came the hammer and I've manually changed the database default - bingo, instant fix. Except it's a band-aid so I need to ensure that the execution plan with and without ARITHABORT are both sensible.

Been there, got the t-shirt.
You can use SET ARITHABORT ON inside an individual stored procedure, if you don't want to change the database or server default.
There's some good discussion of the problem on this StackExchange thread[^], and some fairly detailed information in this article[^].

Only if you have a GO statement after the SET OPTION statement. That wasn't working for us.

Not according to "option 2" in this answer[^]:
CREATE PROCEDURE ...
AS
BEGIN
SET ARITHABORT ON
SELECT ...
END
GO

Yeah - I saw that was possible syntactically, but I was reading that it doesn't actually make the change.
I should have experimented but the klaxons were blaring and there were lots of wild eyes.
The thing that did my head in (mostly) was that the sproc plan cache did not seem to be getting flushed after the DBCC call. And then suddenly it was.
Insanity.

If something has a solution... Why do we have to worry about?. If it has no solution... For what reason do we have to worry about?
Help me to understand what I'm saying, and I'll explain it better to you
Rating helpful answers is nice, but saying thanks can be even nicer.
