It'd be interesting to hear how normal text was converted into a valid html tag there. I bet there's an interesting story there!

Maybe for every down vote, you need to give someone else an up vote to show you're not just a spammer? Just a though. Carry on ... reading.

Yes buddy, I also faced the same thing. My further analysis report says that the vote is submitting to CP database but throwing error in the UI front. May be some BUG.

They are on the case.
It throws the exception message, but the vote IS counted.

All fixed. A tiny oversight in a large refactoring, and unit testing Ajax pages has always been a struggle for us.

I've encountered this before but didn't think too much about it. Now it has occurred again and just wanted to ask what to make of this. In my table of recent reputation points I found this entry:
7 Feb 2011 18:36 PM Answer Upvoted Authority Article C# Is it possible to convert a point or location to an int? -40
Can somebody explain this to me?

If someone changes their vote, or a vote is deleted, then you lose the points associated with that vote, and will get different points if the vote was changed.
If the vote was for a pending article then we clear all votes on pending articles when they go live in order to give articles that are in incubation, so to speak, a fresh start.

Thanks for clearing that up.

If that's the case I think you should update the messages shown in rep history to be more clear. These are probably too long, but:
+/- XX points - vote changed/deleted, old points revoked.
+/- XXX points - votes cleared when article moved from pending to approved.
3x12=36
2x12=24
1x12=12
0x12=18

I thought that was a fair question, can't see why down voted, +5 to compensate.

Read Chris Maunder's reply to my question, that pretty much clears everything up.
Cheers!

Now we have a minimum length of thirty characters, could we have a "(Currently 27)" or similar to let us know how much longer it needs to be?

Agreed! That would be a nice feature.

Indeed!

Works like a charm. I tried it with a ascii code entered via ALT key and number pad. After your hint I found that lots of spaces and a <p/> works too.

I've added some code to collapse multiple ?'s
