So you are seriously implying the hamsters are refurbishing dates.
I'd really like to know two things then:
- What the f**k were they thinking?
- How in god's name did they get up the palm trees?

This is a bug we've been fighting for weeks now. We have tried everything, and I mean, everything. We'll keep gnawing away at it.

Have these been removed? I've been away for a few weeks, but even though the option is still checked, I'm not seeing them anymore? I've tried unchecking with a save and then checking with another save, but still no popups. And I'm using IE8, if that helps. Thanks.

When I view that message, the "Popular" star is part of the anchor (link), so it has a border around the image.

I posed this question in the Lounge as a result of Nish's post about getting someone auto-banned.
What are the criteria used to determine if an auto-ban is appropriate? My thought is that anybody could become a victim of auto-banning if eneough users got together to make it happen, say, to Nish, Christian, myself, or even Chris. What safeguards are in place to ensure something like this doesn't happen?

I'm pretty sure members can be restored, so if it did happen, it wouldn't be the end of the world. Though, I do wonder if sock puppet accounts could be created by a single person to continually ban a member... that'd be annoying.
I agree, there should be minimum requirements to report other members. Say, a certain reputation level and no history of abuse (e.g., if 20% of votes received are down votes, they are probably an abusive member).

I was thinking along the lines of a final ban approval by a site admin for users of a certain reputation level where a significant percentage of their rep points were earned in the important categories, such as Authority, Author, Organizer, Editor, and Participant.

If the profile being reported is Platinum or above in 1 category or Gold or above in 2 categories, then the auto-ban should require admin approval. That should be a fairly decent fix to this problem.

Only Silver and above members can report members. Those members that are inadvertently closed can be opened easily.

Don't you have an exception for even site staff? As in if 5 silver members report say you, Smitha or Sean, you'd be auto-removed? [I know it's trivial to bring the profile back, but still allowing that seems weird]
