SuggestionDown-voting posts shouldn't be anonymousprofessional i009hrs 50mins ago 
My post, at The Culture of VB versus the Culture of C#[^], got downvoted ... I wonder who could possibly downvote this???
 
I think that just as you are required to with articles, downvoting posts should require the down-voter to leave a comment saying why.
 
I think that if you don't want to rate something well you should have to put your name against it. I have no problem telling people why I vote against something and why; I believe that it also gives people a chance to improve things and get their vote changed.
 
Regards,
Kris

This question has been raised, and rejected, many times. Don't get your knickers in a twist over downvotes. There will always be a bit of pond life in a forum like this that goes round downvoting for no reason: ignore them, they do you no harm.
Use the best guess

When posting on controversial topics, it's best to use a temporary account - that way you can participate in the discussion without risking your main account getting attacked (which may not look good if a prospective employer looks at your profile and notices so many down-voted comments). Or just avoid participating in that sort of discussion.

Can't search anything. It doesn't fail or return an eror. It just doesn't return anything and stays white.

QuestionEdit other member's articleprofessionalPJ Arends22 May '13 - 7:00 
I was under the impression that only editors, protectors, and administrators could edit other member's articles. So I was suprised that I was able to access another member's article and actually edit it. I did not click the submit button and actually modify the the article so I do not know what would have happened if I had.

It's not a good idea to post your email address in a public forum.
Now, what if you need to post your email address in a publicly accessible place? There are several techniques for obfuscating the address. Here are a couple of my favorites:
