Luc Pattyn [Forum Guidelines] [Why QA sucks] [My Articles]
I only read formatted code with indentation, so please use PRE tags for code snippets.
I'm not participating in frackin' Q&A, so if you want my opinion, ask away in a real forum (or on my profile page).

Check your email - there should be a reconfirmation link in there. Can you please click that and let me know how it goes tomorrow?

I am no longer getting Insider emails too...

Looks like you changed your email address but haven't reconfirmed it. You would have been seeing lots of bright yellow bars at the tops of forums reminding you to do this. I've resent a confirmation email. Click the link and it will prove your email is good.
We send emails only to addresses we know are good and that you control. We hate spam.

Got the confirmation email. Thanks for sorting that out for me. I'm sure that'll sort the insider emails.

Couple of things:
1. When someone comments to my answer, i get notified. Now there is no way to reply back OP comment, instead i have to use comment to my answer only. Doesn't look a correct flow.
2. Does the OP get an email or so, that i have replied back to OP's comment?
The work flow needs to be more clear. Currently, it looks like, comments to my answer looks like just comments to my answer instead of a full conversation between someone and me!

The comment feature was specifically designed to leave a comment against an item, not to comment on comments. Each comment that is posted will result in an email being sent to the author or authors of the item to which the comments are attached.
However, you've raised a good point (replying to comments) and we're discussing this now.

Got that!

Apart from that, can you just confirm if Enquirer gets an email if the answer is updated? If not, then it should be as that would be the only way right now that can tell Enquirer about any change.

The enquirer doesn't yet, but we'll make this happen.

*3 weeks later, after comments to comments get implemented* Now, what do we do about comments to comments to comments? 
Seriously, though, I'd just inform everybody on the comment thread that a new comment was posted (including the poster of the original question/answer). Either that, or leave a reply button by each comment. The comment will then be placed at the bottom of the comment list, and only the person who asked/answered the question (which includes those who edited the question/answer) and the person who posted the comment being replied to will be notified.
Either that, or you could make it a nested thread system, with different views (the default view being the non-indented list of comments with newer comments at the bottom).

What's this suppose to do?
I was expecting to be instantly transported (beam me up scotty style) to the dungeon of CP central where I would have to overcome several security features ranging from arrows being shot at my head to laser grids to hordes of ninja hamsters after which I would be able to partake in the top-secret discussions of CP.
Imagine my disappointment when it did absolutely nothing

Go to any question in QA.
On the right there is a menu 'Tools'
In that menu there is a link 'Discuss'
Or am I seeing things I shouldn't be seeing which would indicate there really is such a dungeon
|
|
|
|
|
Ah of course. We'll get that cleaned up - thanks! And no that is not the way to the dungeon  .

Crap, back to searching then.
But at least you acknowledged there is a dungeon I'm 1 step closer to the truth 
|

You'll need to pickup the silver chalice and the gold rings before you proceed to the dungeon. Once locked inside, they are the only way out.

Don't forget to drop the magazine in the lunch room so I can read it between tweeks of the Comments.

Are we supposed to report bugs / suggestions for QA as comments now or just edit the main post?
|
|
|
|
|
Good question. I've been thinking about this for a bit and I think it might be best to just report all bugs/suggestions here. Much more eyes here. I'll adjust the Bug List[^] and Suggestions/TODOs[^] myself.
|
|
|
|
|
Yeah but you'll have to adjust the 'report bug' and 'suggestions' links on the QA pages to point here then
|
|
|
|
|
 right.
I do want the links to go to those tips/tricks though. I'll adjust the description to redirect to this forum. Hope that works out.
|
|
|
|
|
That's another way to go
