Thanks Chris
1) Great 
2) A low average voting is by no means something negative
3) Should maybe only consider the removed votes
Cheers,
Jani

Chris Maunder, Thanks for this new feature.
It would be great, if members have to post a message for any vote (i.e., even if they vote 5). This way we not only know why they rate 5, but also prove article's worthiness from different directions (point of views).
By the way, The new name for univoter is tri-voter (those who vote 3).

wowo hold on buddy, are you sure you are saying that ? If I'm not wrong then you are the same guy who said that there will be a voting war and something about shy when I asked for showing voting history. Now let me rephrase the situation, 'XYZ' posted a message, somebody gave him 1 and he can see who did that because of the comment, now he can open all poster messages, voting him/her down using 'asdasdsadas' content of new comment, which make no sense. Now think, if somebody wants to vote, then (s)he have to write a comment, thats irritating. Besides its a normal effect, these uni-voters are all over the internet. So either you have to keep it going as it is or have to use a better way.

Have a click in any of the blank interior area of the menu take you to the Lounge.

No, I won't complain about the location (I'll get used to it).
But I often hover over "Message Boards", wait for it to drop down, then move the mouse down to C#, and click. I could have sworn that I could click anywhere on the hightlit area before, but today I notice I have to click right on the C#, which is a rather small target.
Oh, I use IE7, if that matters.

It works ok in FF2 and IE6, don't know about IE7.
Another funny: on IE6, the light green selection bar doesn't go all the way to the right edge of the menu.

Is there any way to mark a question as answered if you answered it yourself (i.e. found the solution and posted it!) so it doesn't appear in my Unanswered Questions list?

I was browsing the lower ranked articles to see if they deserved it and came accross this one[^]. All the messages at the bottom are Bold, is there a closing tag missing somewhere?
(Viewing using IE7 / XP SP3)

Here's the offending code at the end of the author's article
<h2>
<h4 />
</h2>
Perfect XHTML, but no good as HTML since he has effectively left a H4 tag open.

I should have looked at the source so I could have been more specific - never thought!
By the way, did the servers recently have a major hiccup? I was getting Server Error pages about half an hour ago for a few minutes (I'm in the UK).
Edit: Ah, just seen your post in the thread below!

Yep - see below. One of the servers had a hard night of it and didn't make it.
The thing I'm kicking myself about is we have automatic monitoring and I turned that off on that server a week or so ago when I pulled it from the cluster after it started misbehaving. I forgot to reinstate monitoring when I gave it a second chance

I think it's Chris that's been hitting the ![Beer | [beer]](https://codeproject.global.ssl.fastly.net/script/Forums/Images/beer.gif) 's hard. In a rush to update the new navigation controls in response to user feedback he's apparently skipped the normal QA process and is deploying untested changes to the live site directly from VS. Tossing the empties at the hamster cages isn't helping either. There's only a few drops left in each, but it doesn't take much to get something smaller than the palm of your hand trashed.
Today's lesson is brought to you by the word "niggardly". Remember kids, don't attribute to racism what can be explained by Scandinavian language roots.

One of the servers had been taken out of the cluster weeks ago. Last week I did some testing and it seemed to be perfectly fine so I through it back in the cluster. Turns out it's no good and, because of load balancing, you were getting sent to it perioically and it (the misbehaving server) is dead as a proverbial.
It's been removed.

Just an opinion. The White Background Color is looking a bit odd to me. specially when the ad has white background, at that time it looks like something is missing. I would suggest to change it to orange or some other color.

We had it orange, light orange, green, and bright purple but found that the white looked neater, cleaner and less cramped than if we coloured it.

OK. I think, it might take some time to adjust with the new layout.

Love the new look Chris. However, when I first load it up in FF3, the Message Boards menu now opens up well below the screen bottom (1024x768). I only have one extra toolbar than default, and removing it still doesn't show the bottom part of the menu.

Try a Ctrl+F5. That should force a reload of the offending script. (Kudos to Shog for the fix)
