Another blatant failure by Chris' System.Search.ReadMind function. That .NET stuff just doesn't cut the kielbasa.

Actually, he probably doesn't need to use that namespace. He just needs to use Request.QueryString. He might even be able to apply that to the string of request queries ("I can haz feature?") he's been getting in this forum.

The bug list on that feature is getting out of control.

What do the numbers represent next to the names of the top experts? Is that the number of rep points they've earned in the specified period? If so, does that also include points they've earned answering questions in the programming forums?

Is it possible to NOT show pending stuff after you've approved/reported it? I hit the site from both work and home, and pending items that I approve/report at home still show up at work, and vice-versa. Is there a way you can make it so that approved/reported items show up the same regardless of what computer I'm on?

Yep - we can do that. I'll add it to the list.

That's a bad idea. Sometimes I want to revisit a pending article because I've had second thoughts about it, or want to modify an earlier post there.

I think I'm going to have to ask all 7 million users to come to a single consensus before presenting a request for change.
So: how about we provide a simple list page that lists all pending items with a little mark next to it to show you which ones you've reported.

That would take too much time. Just ask me instead.

That would be suboptimal. Then one would have to click over to another page. Why not do the same thing on the list that's on the front page?

Given your recent penchant for popups, I can only assume that you've done your environmental/financial research and discovered that popups are greener/more economic than smileys!

Maybe you can put the icons in a popup.

Thank you John. It's very hard to tell when you're being a smartass so the visual cue is much appreciated.

I just wanted to make sure you weren't gonna take me seriously after the pop-up fiasco earlier this week.

Perfect.
I was just afgter some indication that we had taken action on a pending item. Maybe a green checkmark for approved, and a red "X" for reported?

Or maybe a friendly popup with smiley, something like "Hold on, pard. You've already seen that one. ".

In this[^] question in Q&A, the OP had edited it to indicate that he had resolved the issue.
Out of the kindness of my heart, to save others reading it unnecessarily and at great cost to my time-management system I attempted to edit the subject to include "[SOLVED]".
However, it would not take. after a couple of attempts and a great deal of refreshing (Ctl-F5) "[SOLVED]" showed up as a tag but the subject stubbornly remained pristine.
Is this designed behaviour? Elevensies time for the hamsters or entirely my fault?
My money is on 'my fault'. It usually is.

I thought solved questions had a green check mark next to them.

Only if marked as solved by the OP.
I think, I could be wrong on this though, that they are only marked as you describe when an answer is accepted. Since there were no answers this one couldn't be marked 'solved' in this way.
I'm probably wrong again and it's almost certainly my fault.
