I believe you meant: Extreme Prejudice[^] 
Did you ever see history portrayed as an old man with a wise brow and pulseless heart, waging all things in the balance of reason?
Is not rather the genius of history like an eternal, imploring maiden, full of fire, with a burning heart and flaming soul, humanly warm and humanly beautiful?

There's no error in the logs so all I can assume is that there was a timeout during the message post, either your end as a network timeout or ours as a database timeout during the peak of the morning rush.

I think the vote was registered - but no message appeared.
Since I did not see my message, I tried upvoting once more when I got home from work, and the number of votes remained the same.

Yes, the vote certainly was recorded. It was just the message that had troubles getting a hand hold.

I answered a question and later noticed there was an extra pre tag at the end of it, so I edited the answer, and re-submitted. Imagine my surprise when it was still there. It looks like it's re-adding it when I submit the answer.

Care to tell us where that happened? Out ouf curiosity I checked the first five solutions in your list of recently answered questions alas with not luck.

Strange issue! 
In Sapi5.Function1 there was a C# pre tag right before the parenthesis. So when you submitted your solution the "magic" stuff found the need to close another pre tag. Once I removed this opening pre tag, which was inside an already open pre tag, everything went back to normal. If you now edit your solution you'll find the closing pre tag no longer at the end of your question.
Cheers!

I could sworn I looked for an errant opening pre tag, but okay. Thanks for fixing it.
And ya know - I hate the hand-holding features in the editor. More often than not, they just get in my way and frustrate the hell outa me.

IMO these should be optional once one has earned enough editing expertise.

I posted a simple answer to this question[^] and (as you can see) it posted twice. Not sure how, all I did was click "submit" and I must have pressed that a few times...
Anyway, I think they are independant (since it appears I got two +10s for the answer) but I thought I'd leave it for you as I'm not sure they won't both vanish if I delete one or the other!

In addition to that, the link to "William L. Bain" found in the by-line has no redirection.

IE8 v. etc wasn't broken until I tried this link.

This crash is not a problem. Why I can't even recall this morning what search term I was using to cause the hapablap yesterday.
So; but in answer to the question: ALL (no scream-down intended) add-ons disabled, pop-up blocker off, upon restart IE8 and click-on result of CP search on "William L. Bain" (single item), results in new message -> red-roundel-slash on the "gear" of manage add-ons icon in status but with an added message "this page requesting an add-on"(sp).
Find that enabling javascript add-on makes this message retire. But the crash still occurs.
Oh, and the link you provided for "William L. Bain" and his reputation does in fact work w/o crash.
My installation of VS2010 can be fired up in response to JIT debug on the modal fail and it'll load symbols and give me a break/continue in an error of "access violation".
Thanks though.

That's frustrating and I wish I knew the answer, but my guess is you have something on your system that's causing IE to get scared and confused.
Sorry

When an object is deleted e.g. a draft article etc. and you have posted a message there, you get the Post Undo in the rep history and the post rep points removed.....
1) However, you don't get told which object the relationship is with. Now you obviously can't put a link to the object now, because it has been deleted, but can you at least put the former title with out a link, to give us an idea what has gone.......
2) Now, on the rep points, why should they be deleted, you have made the contribution to the site, which may have ultimately resulted in for example the author removing the item or whatever, but you are then being penalised for your effort. The points should remain.
I could understand your points being with withdrawn if it was your own object and it was reported by others etc. but not those providing the feedback.

I'm going to look into this and see if there's any technical barrier to doing this.
Originally it was done so that if a member posted a zillion crap articles just to boost their score, then removing the articles removed their ill-gotten* gains. It also allows a member who has had their article savaged to remove the article and restore their dignity, as well as allowing them to disassociate themselves from a joint article if the article is poor and they no longer support it.
You have a perfectly valid point though: if you are doing unto others then you should keep the points, regardless of whether the other keeps his.
