That's always good.

This has just started to happen instead of an error now. 
The new profile says I am Member since Monday, June 9, 2003 (7 years, 9 months) and have never posted a thing here.
Who am I representing here?
|
|
|
|
|
The correct term is impersonation
|
|
|
|
|
Oh ok. Who is impersonating me? Please tell me. 
|
|
|
|
|
There are a whole bunch of us

I get account # 431622's profile 
|
|
|
|
|
|
Interesting, must be a hardcoded default id in code. 
|
|
|
|
|
So, we're relatives?
|
|
|
|
|
Oh! so Mr. 431622 is impersonating all of us for now. 
Case solved... next...
|
|
|
|
|
Got following error.
Error: Videos. Ticket: 4512015. Server: Web02
|
|
|
|
|
Try again and see if you get profile info for member 431622!
|
|
|
|
|
Now it shows same page for everyones profile, with 250 points.
But now the top right link (My Account) is working fine.

Hello, I received:
Error: Videos. Ticket: 4512056. Server: Web21
While trying to go here:

Your not the only, think one of the hamsters just attacked the server!
|
|
|
|
|
I thought Web21 was decommissioned.
|
|
|
|
|
I guess Web21 is one of the best servers they have (based on how it survived the replacements)... though not sure, just a guess.

I think it would be great if users could post surveys in forums like The Lounge. Sometimes I pose a question to start a discussion on a topic and it gets responded to so much that I can't get a general consensus on everyone's views.

This is on my TODO but I'm not sure of how the UI would look. A survey sitting inside a message? What about alternate answers?
My biggest hurdle currently is architecting the code so that our separate forum and survey systems can work together without being tied by a dependency.

Yeah, I didn't think about the details too much yet. Maybe just have a dedicated survey forum, each OP is simply the survey, within that message it can be voted on and responded to like the weekly surveys (including alt answers), but browsed more like a forum (though browsing would only show original thread/topic).
Glad to hear it's on the todo list though!

In relation to this post this morning; here[^]
I deleted a number of those offending answers. I was in my rep history later on and there is no record of that event.
Now, if you down vote an item, it at least records this and marks 0 points, If I report it, i get 1 point, but the offending item stays visible until someone with appropriate rights does something.
Surely either, those with high enough priviliges should get at least 1 point under organiser for deleting, OR if you use the report function the item should disappear until the authorties check it and remove permanently or say its okay and release back into the public domain.
Cheers,

There are some things we decided would accrue points. Deleting an item is done by one person in one action and should be a last resort type of thing. What we'd much prefer is if items are reported using the reporting flag. This mitigates the risk of a single, inexperienced member accidentally deleting something important while providing the benefit of allowing 4 other members the joy of getting points by dobbing on someone else.
For extreme situations like the one you attended to, we thank you for your kind, selfless donation of that well placed delete.
