NO not quite - like downvoting but without point deduction. Like that, it does no harm, but still lets people know that you don't approve of their post. No war.
There seems to be interest amongst the other members for a feature like that.

I think the intentions behind the current system are clear. If a message is being reported as spam, then the member is a spammer, which should in fact get them banned.
Unfortunately, incidents like this happen when people resort to reporting a message as they don't have any other means to vent their anger on an utterly nonsensical post.
But then I've also seen that incidents like this are not very frequent, and when it does happen, our members get the unintentionally closed account reinstated. This is a fair trade to ensure that the actual spammers will get kicked out by the system really quick.
I think everything is in order.

I agree, but we need something to let other know that we don't like certain threads.
Because most of the time when you reply with dislike, it tends to offend them as it's just finger pointing.
It seems, people are not learning anything from these life-learning-lessons.  Why do people think that they need to represent themselves as either funny or wise. I just hate this nonsense.

If I were you, I'd start by reading this[^] to get a general understanding of the article. Pay particular attention to the Restrictions section.

I spend a lot of time on CP and in my opinion 1..5 star rating (voting) system should be replaced with "recommend" button.
The sad fact (recognized by many high profile websites) is that multiple-grade rating doesn't work on the internet.
Too many people click 5-star rating if they simply like an article. They don't reserve 5-star for exceptionally well written and informative pieces. This is the reason why some short or badly formatted articles end up as "excellent".
I would like to click 5-star to distinguish great articles. But by clicking 4-star I would lower the average grade of good article below the rate of some mediocre articles (that have 5 star rating because most people simply don’t give a s**t about the meaning of 1..5 grades).
If dropping old 5–star system is not an option, maybe you should replace stars with actual words like "good", "exceptionally good" etc.?

Everything seemed alright with me when I just visited it. Maybe a glitch in the system.
What did it say in the lower left hand corner. I can see this:
Web01 | 2.6.130704.1 | Last Updated 9 Jul 2013
Maybe you were looking at that page when Chris and the hamsters were updating the page.

That's a simple question, isn't it?

Sorry, but this is still not it. What I'm looking for is at the absolute bottom of the page at the left hand side. Search for any of these words you find below:
Advertise | Privacy | Mobile | Last Updated | All Rights Reserved | Terms of Use
It can't be that hard to find since it is at the bottom of the page. You really can't get any lower than that.

Ok, must be that:
Web01 | 2.6.130704.1 | Last Updated 9 Jul 2013
Anyway, as you see bellow, it has been resolved by setting "All" instead of "Last week" in the main settings.

Look at the "Show" dropdown. If "Last Visit" is selected, then you only see the messages posted after your latest visit. Choose "All" (and then click on the "Update" button) if you want to see all messages.

Changed it to "All" and works now. Still strange so, if with "Last week" you don't get the thread titles.

Probably because the threads are posted more than 7 days ago.

Yes, but it get's a little bit confusing.

That's why I choose "All".

Yes, me too. Should be the standard. But the cache implements "his" settings every morning before I log in here, so. (Terminal Servers). At home it doesn't do it.

Since the question "in question" was deleted I couldn't respond to your comment and you also don't have the private email option enabled so I'll "hijack" this response:
You were absolutely right and I'm intrigued if this "feature" has been reported in the Sugs & Bugs Forum. I don't think deleted questions should be visible at all (unless they are your own) by any means whatever.
What do you think, shouldn't that be reported?
Regards,

I use this "feature" when I report abuse and if the abusive question is deleted already, to prove that it's really abuse.
Perhaps a question shouldn't be accessible when it's deleted by the OP, but accessible when it's reported 3 times.

I'll second that!

It is probably just your forum settings that have changed (somehow). Check the orange bar just above the forum posts (where there is a checkbox for "Profile popups" on the left side). All the way on the right side, do you have "Show" set to "Last Week" or something like that?
