Well, would you then? 
p.s. For a comparison, MSDN forums does this already. While mods can mark their own post as answer, it will not give them medal points. (they've got a medal system).

Personally, I never vote on my articles. But I will not call it gaming the system. Top authors like Sacha and Marc have done it in the past.

In forums, some times I want to take quote the title(or part of the title) of the message. Currently I'm doing that manually.

The spinner goes for a few seconds but all I see are the labels for the curves; not the actual graph itself. This is happening across multiple browsers on my end, so I assume it's either a server side glitch or a missing plugin on this box: Opera 11.51, FF6.02, FF7.0, and IE9.
Did you ever see history portrayed as an old man with a wise brow and pulseless heart, waging all things in the balance of reason?
Is not rather the genius of history like an eternal, imploring maiden, full of fire, with a burning heart and flaming soul, humanly warm and humanly beautiful?

Unless the status is Fixed (... but not deployed), your fix isn't working.

I tried to refresh the lounge and the site took me to my settings.
There it seemed to have lost my name and such and next to my name on the top right corner (to the left of my name) a small email icon appeared saying my email needed to be confirmed.
Not trusting this I just closed the window, then came back to the home page of CP and everything was normal.
Is this intended? If it is I don't see why I should confirm the email adress I have been using for 5 and a half years now.

We've moved to a new authentication system that still has a couple of unforeseen wrinkles. In short we have an over-zealous system trying hard to ensure you can sign up or sign in - even if you already have. It only happens if one database is down while a different one is up. A situation that should never, ever, ever happen but, of course, happened within a day of launch.
/bangs head.
We've made a fix I'll try and release tonight that should sort it out.

The sort / grouping options for viewing Quick Answers has an "Active" choice. According to the "hover help text", it means ordered by last activity date.
However, it does not include "replies" entered. I appears to only include the Question and Solutions and the edits to them. So if a solution was added "4 hours ago" but somebody entered a comment or reply within the last 5 minutes, the Quick Answers view still shows "4 hours ago".
It would be nice to have the "Active" choice include those other activities that show that people are adding / asking / answering information on a question. Makes it easier to keep on top of things.

I'll add this to the TODO. It requires a fair bit of work to ensure it's efficient without us completely hacking our current infrastructure, but it's a neat idea.

dl, dt, dd tags preview correctly but upon posting yield the error:
You can't create new tags. Please choose from existing.
|
|
|
|

Where did you observe this? It would sound like a new bug (feature) to me as I've already made use of definition lists in Q&A.
Cheers!
—MRBP.S: This post contains a <dd> tag.

I tried to use it when posting a tip.

I'll head over there and try that on one of mine.
Hang on!

This tip of mine actually uses definition lists with dd and dt tags: Changing the line spacing in a RichTextBox control[^]
So I just added one to the end of the tip to make sure that the editor didn't break lately.
Thus I'm sorry to say that I cannot confirm this bug. Got any more details about what browser with which version showed this behaviour?
Cheers!

That's weird, eh? The preview when I was editing looked just like the dl's in your article. I'm using IE9.0.8.
I'll try again FWIW.

It worked for me this time so either:
- I made a typo (I don't think so, I checked when I got the error)
- The problem occurs when adding, not editing
- Solar flares?
