I read it as a badly worded question for anyone who has downloaded it.

I'm with Nagy - it seems like a "anyone got experience with this before I lash out the cash on it" to me.

Is there a list anywhere of the acceptable values for lang=??? in a <pre > tag? When I'm pasting code blocks or tidying up other peoples', I sometimes feel the need to change the language, but I don't know any more than the bleedin' obvious ones.

If I go to Q+A, find a good answer and upvote it, it shows the good ol' red segmented bargraph for that answer. Everything else has the newfangled stars. Go away and come back to it, the one I voted now got stars.
Looks like the migration was almost, but not quite, done.

(I'm guessing it's only temporary.) Tried several ways into Q+A, and always getting the right page with 0 entries no matter whether it's for all, unanswered, my posts, ... No filters, in case you ask.
 Looks like we might have to all follow Luc!

I'm just doing some database maintenance (defraging indices, which to me is as much fun as mowing a lawn) so the DB was a little busy. All over now.

It just got fixed, I was experiencing the same thing few minutes ago, but it looks fine now.

I wouldn't mind getting a few more questions in the programming forums, even some of the funnier/dumber ones would be welcomed; we are starting to miss them.

When I did a search of forum messages, I selected one of the results which happened to be on page 24052 (from sometime in the year 2001). EVERY time I try to go to that message (or even just that page) I get the message that there's a heavy load and to try again.
Seems to me that it's broken.

Yeah, this is a known bug. If a message is old enough, you can't reach it. Very annoying and hopefully they are working on fixing it.
|
|
|
|

Well, at the least the message could say, "No can do. Why don't you go have some bacon and try again later?"
|
|
|
|
|
Finally, a sensible suggestion

Add that to the enhancement list. Instead of 'servers are busy' how about 'hamsters are eating bacon'?

Should there maybe be a rationale requested once someone tries to downvote questions from the same user consecutively? ..let's say if a user goes and downvotes 2 or 3 answers from me back to back, then on the third try, have it ask why and show his rationale.
I seem to attract stalking univoters from time-to-time, latest doesn't have much impact (-2), but the variety of subjects that he's downvoting (C++, Qt, and MFC) and the time between downvotes (2 minutes between each) lead me to believe its the same person. Also, the 3 posts downvoted are the last three things I had answered, so they're right next to one another if you look at my Q&A answers (reinforcing the theory that someone just looked at that list and downvoted).
...Or maybe we should allow users to block others from being able to see where we've posted so that this irrational behavior is not as easy.

Join the club, I often get runs of 1's.

Yeah but why not control the runs... I mean, I don't mind if its deserved... but for people to do it out of spite is just foolish.

There are two reasons for this happening:
0. You are being a twit.
1. The voter is being a twit.
At the end of the day your rep isn't hurt by one or two people troll voting, a member is limited on their ability to down-vote, but if YOU start to iss poff the majority, see FB, then you'll get flame-grilled.
I try not to vote down unless it is abusive - then I'll vote remove - or really stupid.

I like your list numberingindexing, definitely a sign you may have programmed a bit too long...
