When I view Q&A, comments is not showing. But if I add a comment, I can see all other comments until next navigation in Google Chrome ?

I have the same problem - I can't see comments I have made, and when I receive an email to say a comment has been made, I get the text, but it is not visible when I follow the link.
Chrome, 12.0.742.100

If I post a comment in reply to the comment I can't see, then I can see my new comment and the comment I was trying to reply to. F5 refresh removes both.

It is exactly the same as I experience it.

Still not showing(Both new & old comments). BTW It's happening in Firefox too. Couldn't/can't get replies from OP & some Enquirers posting their comments in answers.

Thanks - I'll try and take a look this evening or first thing tomorrow morning. We made a ton of changes in the last update and something, somewhere, no matter how much we checked, was bound to sneak through.

I have the same problem on Firefox 4 (web 22 server)

I confirm that. The comments are not showing even for old posts where comments were shown before. All those comment still present in data: an attempt to add new comment shows all comments posted earlier on the same solution; they disappears again on next page re-load/refresh.

Since when do we have those shiny new messagetype-icons like the Suggestions-lightbulb and the bug-icon? Didn't see them before.
Why is there no joke-icon here in Site Bugs/Suggestions? Too serious a matter to allow joky messages?

Bugs aren't cute. They are ugly. And serious. And have no sense of humour, hence the lack of joke icon.
This is serious business, guys.

Whoa! I copied the URL you posted to a new tab, and guess, what happens... my profile came up. Why the hell is Pete considering me to be a spammer, I thought. Forgot to remove the full stop at the end of your sentence, and up comes one's own profile page.

I have noticed recently, that the main factor in calculating popularity of an article (or other type) is votes. This is all well and good but, while not taking much notice of views is sensible, I would like to suggest that the new feature Downloads be added in. I have several articles that have only two or three votes, so have low popularity at the moment, but have a comparatively high number of downloads, several hundred. Therefore, I would like to suggest that Downloads would be a better method of judging popularity or quality of an article.
Thanks, Ed

How do you cater for those articles that have code downloaded lots, but the code really sucks? All of a sudden, they'd seem to be better than they really are.

Yes this is true, however, perhaps do not make downloads of equal weighting to ratings but perhaps half or one third. If the code really sucks and is too popular, people will gradually be more disappointed by it and so then downvote it (you would hope). It is true to say, I think, that upvoting is less common as it seems to have less of a purpose (for some odd reason this is what people think  ) however, downvoting is common (when it is necessary) as people vent their frustration with an article and can see an obvious purpose to downvoting. On this reasoning, I would say that an inclusion of downloads in popularity/rating is justified and worthy of considration.

I have known some very popular people who also really sucked.

I think you are mixing "popular" with "good." Perhaps the voting system, since it takes less effort to reward one's friends and lash out at one's enemies, is more vulnerable to being skewed than downloads, but both are capable of manipulation.

Nope. It's just that I have read a few articles that seemed really good, but once I have downloaded the code I have realised that the article has had more care taken with it than the code. Generally, in this case, I try to give feedback on how the code could be improved.

Yes, that's happened to me once or twice. But haven't you also encountered articles where the voting system has given them a much higher, or much lower, score than they deserved?

Of course you would. I wish I felt you represented a norm rather than an outlier.

Yup. Bill Sergio's spring to mind - he's actually produced some really good code but his articles have attracted a lot of vitriol. Even though he and I have had some fairly public spats, I have always tried to be fair to his articles; it would be demeaning to play voting games just because we've butted heads a few times.

I would have to disagree - sometimes you can't judge the value of an article without downloading the code. Then you find it was written by a chimp. Since you can't un-download code, that would inflate the apparent utility of the article.
