Then I will be able to report on him....
I wish I could believe there is an after life.

But what will you be reporting? Honestly, it's like listening to the types of arguments that my 8 year old used to come out with. Seriously, just ignore it. If someone has a valid thing to say about your post/answer/article, they will tell you.

Which will be a low-rep account and thus the vote won't have as much negative effect. That'd be a a nice improvement over the current system.

To you, perhaps. But it's important to lots of people.

No, it isn't, they just erroneously think it is. Anonymous downvotes mean absolutely nothing, other than that the voter is a dick, and has not the courage to enter into a proper discussion. And they do us no harm whatsoever.
One of these days I'm going to think of a really clever signature.

So long as they think that, that's all that matters.
One way to help people feel better would be if the debator rep score was totally cancelled. If down votes and up votes on non-technical forum posts don't matter, then why tally it up and display it on profiles?

Not 100% sure about this, but I've been noticing that even though an article is voted (based on information on rep history), the vote counter doesn't seem to increase. This doesn't happen always, just for some votes.
For example this article Encrypting a dataset using AES, including compression[^] shows currently 6 votes, but I have a feeling that something like 8 or 9 is more close?
So could it be that all the votes are not showing in the vote counter?

Seemed to work when I voted. Is there any specific reason why you believe there are votes missing?
|
|
|
|

Yep, I noticed that your vote was added correctly.
The reason I'm suspecting this is that in detailed rep history list, I've seen votes on that article but when I look at the count of the votes, it's not increased.

Quite interesting, Iv'e seen the same on posts but I just thought I was too tired.

Articles and their ratings get cached. You may have been seeing an old cached version.

Triple comments mess with the formatting:
public class pp
{
int i = 42;
}

I noticed the same when writing an article, but the preview and the published version were fine. Did you have this problem also in the preview?
|
|

I didn't notice 
The problem is with the angle brackets which can be replaced, but...

For some reason, no matter what filter I set, I can only see a few articles, none relating to the set filter. I did see this before. Firefox 15.0.1. Will test IE and Maxthon.
EDIT: Same issue.
I think computer viruses should count as life. I think it says something about human nature that the only form of life we have created so far is purely destructive. We've created life in our own image.

On the homepage, just to the right of the tabs, do you have a topic selected other than 'All Topics"?

I had VB.NET there, but cleared the filter box above the list of articles. The articles actually did not have VB in them, most of them were C++.  Changing it to All Topics did work, but I think that clearing the filter box should show all articles regardless of what is selected on the homepage.

When I respond to comments on my own article, Finding prime numbers[^] I'm returned to the article in "Composing" state and get the "banner" notifying me this is an older version of the article, even though I have done no work on it since it was approved.

Hi Matt,
Hmmm, this is really very weird. I couldn't recreate the case myself.
Does it still happen to you? Was it happening with any messages you posted or just one particular?
Where you on the article page, or may be you were viewing the version and posted a message while viewing your first "composing" version, not article itself?
Any information you can give will help me finding and fixing the bug.
Thanks in advance.
Sincerely,
Elina Blank
Life is great!!! Enjoy every moment of it!

I have several responses to comments in that Article, and this happened every time.
|
|

When you say "when you respond", does that mean "after posting a reply to a message on your article" or "when I click on a link in an email sent to me in response to a message being posted on my article"?
Also: are the messages you are responding to present on the currently published version of the article, or are the messages specific to the composing version of the article?

Re: how I got to the message on the article in order to reply, I believe I used both methods to get there...click on link in email, and just go to the article to check.
It is possible that the original messages that I'm responding to were comments on the composing version. It was approved overnight so the comments may have been maked before it was approved.
(I thought that only Admins and I could see my article while "Composing", but others might be able to see "Pending").
Matt

Perhaps, this is a feature unlocked by reputation points, but should I be able to delete other people's comments?
