I asked a question and voted all answers with 5.
One/two days later I voted all answers again 5 to make sure that I did not forget one of the experts.
And surprising: It Counts again +1 for me for "Vote Question/Answer up"
Not a serious thing...but this forum discusses programming issues/Problems 
I think it is a bug not a feature.
Kind regards

I think that it shows it again, but does not actually increase your reputation. Could you please check that?

It is like you described it. It shows them only, but it does not count.
So it is _not_ a bug it is a Feature

It looks like Sean made some edits. The date you see is relative to your timezone so Sean may have made the edits the day after you posted.

It would be a great idea if it was possible to include screenshots
when suggesting a solution.
|
|
|
|
|
No it wouldn't. It really wouldn't.
The problem with including pictures in a question or answer is that this is open to idiots abusing the system and including pictures that are not safe for work. With an article, this is different because we have a fairly effective set of moderators who would help weed out the offensive.
This suggestion has popped up many times.

Very good point! And also a reminder that People should learn again to express them in language (Ok, I'm not native english therefore this was maybe a boomerang  ).

Is there something wrong? I am unable to upload images by drag and drop. I have to click browse button, select image.Then it appears bellow the box with X mark. Then again I have to click upload option. WHY?
|
|
|
|
|
Is this still happening? It's working fine for me.
Thanks,

I find I get that as well now and again. To resolve it, I have to "save draft" close and re-open to recover.
|
|
|
|
|
Next time that happens can you please take a look at the Javascript console and see if there are any errors?
Also, are you trying to upload a file that you previously tried to upload when this happens? Or do you also see this happening when you're trying to upload new files?
cheers

After reading this Your article sucks, where's part 3 already?[^] and several others like it, might I suggest that we curb who can vote an article with a mark less than 3.
In order to vote an article with a mark below 3 the user needs to have acquired some basic level of recognition on the site e.g. have at least 500 reputation points for example. They can still vote on articles, downvote/upvote and do everything else, just limit how they vote on articles until such time as they have proved themselves.
Is this a good or a bad idea?

It's not a bad idea.
I'd like some debate on this.

I find the idea at least worth to think about it. I don't know how complicated would be to implement, but if something in that way has to be done, I would not only use the reputation, or in case of reputation something higher. It is easy to post some items and get points fast.
Maybe mixing usage time as well? I don't only mean registered at XXX, but number of logins or things like that. At least that would reduce the number of puppets or the quick "create account and revenge"

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.

I think anything that can help numb the pain of dealing with spammers etc. is a good thing, those who don't understand or object probably are a spammers.
e.g.
1) Members who do not change their default display name from "Member XXXXXXX" should not be allowed to post articles/tips/replies.
2) Members who have not replied to at least "x messages", i.e. interacted with others cannot be allowed to post New Topics / Articles / Tips etc.
There are probably other constraints that can be considered to help.
Note: OnePlus[^] use the 5 message replies rule before creating new topics in their forums as I found out when I went to post a query and this forced me to read around the site, look at other conversations and get a feel for the place and engage. And in doing so answered a few other queries I had in my skull, no longer needing to ask them.

Problems are that most of the flood spammers we had recently do change the default name: partly to make themselves look more "respectable" I suspect.
And Articles / Tips aren't a major problem - they don't get out into the "live" world without moderation, and they are pretty slow to post. It's QA that gets hit, and hit hard - because it can't be moderated (without a level of manpower we probably don't have) and it seems that it's really, really fast to post to (a dozen or so all timestamped to the second with the same author!)
I'm also not convinced that a "you must post n messages before you do this" would do any more good than harm: if they can post questions seriously fast, it wouldn't be difficult for them to post a dozen "Thanks for a great article!" messages at random before starting with the fun-and-games. And I can see it scaring off genuine noobies - we already know they don;t want to learn to read!
Bad command or file name. Bad, bad command! Sit! Stay! Staaaay...

If you see around the down vote, Most of the Downvotes are generated by Noobs who has never written an article themselves. I feel the the reason for downvote is to force the voter to tell where Author has gone wrong. That option is already available as "Your Alternative" which the downvoter won't ever use, as the reason for Downvoting is not letting author know but to troll ( in most cases).
However when you observe the Downvoting used by members having enough reputation is that they exercise downvoting rarely when something is really not at par the site.
Check out the amount of Downvote this noob of two months old account has dished out without any significant elaboration in most cases.
http://www.codeproject.com/script/Forums/Messages.aspx?fmid=11101272[^]
So in my opinion unless and untill some one has gain that respect to downvote, disallow a downvote. He can always point a fault in the article.
Personally it is very irritating when some retards without any article in CP downvote my article about 200 pages of word document that had taken two weeks to work and compose because there was somewhere I used a "Hard Coded string for db connection".

Certainly in my own personal experience, the down-votes and unsubstantiated low marks have all come from noobs, so I think it is perfectly reasonable to expect this level of power to be acquired having undergone some basic level of standing on the site (whatever that may be).
I think (as someone said earlier) that a combination of factors is a good idea i.e. reputation points in combination with participation on the site (which is also logged as part of your professional profile).
