Should'nt bookmarking a message / answer be 1 point? 2 points seem a little high.
After all, a vote is valued at 1 point.
The funniest thing about this particular signature is that by the time you realise it doesn't say anything it's too late to stop reading it.
My latest tip/trick

Voting is often a casual "why not" thing. Bookmarking means you care more about it than just liking it - you want to refer to it later.

The linkifier seems to be acting strangely.
In The Lounge I was attempting to paste a link to this[^]
I typed 'Susannah York', highlighted it, as I have done many times before, and pasted the link. I got variously:
Susannah York[^]
or
Susannah York[^]

I've tried both pasting and manual linification in IE, FF and Chrome and all worked fine.

Seems to be fine for me too now.

All done.

You won't see anything actually happen for a few hours since the procedure does all the calculations behind the scenes then swaps out the new set of scores for the old set, but for all those with questions, complaints, observations, threats of bodily violence, or questions, please be patient and wait until the recalc is done.
Please note that the recalculation will not affect your article count, your message count, the email system, the shade of orange, the number of votes you get, your pet's disposition to you, the flouride in your tap water, sunspot activity or any unusual tidal action.
We're just going through all events that have occurred and calculating the points.
Changes in this final iteration: debator points have been trimmed. I know this is fine tuning a result after the horse has bolted, to mix metaphors, but it's the article authors and question answerers who are the ones who should be stars here. There will be no further adjustment of this.

I've tried three or four times to post an answer to this question:
http://www.codeproject.com/Questions/146694/MS-SQL-CONNECTION.aspx[^]
And they aren't showing up when I go back to the Q/A page, nor when I go back to the question. In the interest of completeness, I'm also not seeing the points for answering the question in my Recent Rep Points list.

Database load has been high so timeouts have been an issue. All should be good now.

But this issue is only to me because I have used HTML Table in my content.
Screenshots Previous Layout[^] & Current Layout[^]. In current layout the profile details went down. 
Please make it again working. Thanks.
|
|
|
|
|
Is it possible to increase the length for Profile details(About you) & Signature? Mostly HTML Tags takes more characters.
BTW I know already JSOP posted a thread about this one.
|
|

|

Send me the HTML of the table you are posting.
I think there's tons of room to talk about yourself given the space provided. Bio's need to be a reasonable length in order to not swamp the article's they are shown in.
Signature: Same deal. Members are interest in the message, not in downloading Mb's of signatures.
You're a programmmer - get creative!

Sorry chris, forgot to mention that links are taking more characters because of the url of the link...I'll try tinyurl for that which will reduce more characters.
BTW due to recent incident in my life I'm keeping current one(which is very important) in my signature(May be always).
Thanks.

Found the issue and have fixed. Next upload it will be fine, and no need to edit your Bio.

No Chris, it's still there(I mean the 'Bio details' went down). May I try Div instead of Table?
BTW No rush dude please do that in your free time. Thanks.
[Edit]Please take a look at the screen shots also, which is in main thread[/Edit]

would those responsible please fix this
when there is no functional unsubscribe
the newsletter becomes spam:

|

Have you clicked the link at the bottom of the newsletter? If so, and it timed out, it was probably because a major reclaculation has been going on for the past 23 hrs that has tied up the database and caused occasional timeouts.
Which one are you unsubscribing from? I'll do it for you if you wish.

I have noticed tonight that the Q&A page does not fill the full browser view, but is a column in the centre of the browser widow. Something has changed with the layout.
(It changes the whole layout including the banners, menu etc. and left with 2 grey areas at the edges of the page)
|
|
|
|
|
The main part of QA has always been like that. Recently I changed it so the header matches. I'm planning on making the layout selectable between fixed width and fluid (full width)

I don't seem to be getting email notification of replies since around 11 AM GMT today.
I assume this is to do with the recalculation of the recalulated points, but if not...
