Found the culprit[^]. He's been inactive for a long time, and since recently he seems to be working through the QA in chronological order. Can someone fire a mail off to him (I can't since he only posts in QA, and that does not allow you to reply)

It might be not intentional. He must have used the 'COM' filter and got back those unanswered questions there. He must have just went ahead and replied them. Looks like he is an expert in that!
From his profile, it doesn't look like he will be after reputation points or so. Already 5+ exp here and quite experienced. I think it would be wrong to call him 'culprit'!

I wasn't using culprit in a negative sense. And his answers are competent. That's why I suggested a mail, in order not to get everyone involved in a flame competition.

Ok! got that...
Just wanted to share with you whatever I observed.

He's not the only one, and certainly not the most prolific. I have challenged someone in the past about this but it seems they don't like being given orders. I guess we have to live with it.
It's time for a new signature.

How about we just fix it so old messages don't bubble up?
I like that people are continuing to give old messages some lovin'

That's what I try to do when I have the answer - which is less often than I would like.

And of course, I can't alter THAT part of the message. the OP is here[^]

When I do a job search the returns only a few results (e.g., 2 results), it will still say "page 1 of 24". When I click "next", it says "No Job Postings were found. Please click Post a Job if you wish to post your own Job ad."

I hope you're going to do something about this. It isn't a pleasant sight.

I didn't mean to say you aren't doing anything about it, but that the situation is out of control, and these incidents repeat themselves way too many times.

Some days, I wish I could use "percussive maintenance" on other people. And spammers.

I guess messages for deleted answers are not shown anymore. Can't find it in the 'Recent changes' list but was there in 'Current Bugs and Things we are working on this second' list. May be it has not been updated.
Even if the deleted answers are not shown anymore in the list but the answer count is still equal to the total number of answers answered by the users.
I hope the admin must be knowing about it. If not I just found another bug.

I haven't been able to reproduce this. But that may be because it was fixed as a side-effect of recent changes. Do you still see this anywhere?
Just to be clear I'm talking about the answer count not being in sync.
|
|
|
|
|
For that, I need to find posts with deleted answers in it.
No, I cannot see the problem anymore. Will surely report if that happens again.
