Slightly off-topic but the staff and professional icons are a little too similar.

Are you saying the staff aren't professional?

Well, if you are implying that someone here's using their staff in a professional manner, I am sure I'd like to be spared the details.

I noticed the change this morning. Way better now - thanks.

Feeling so honored (and humbled too!) to get a reply from Chris himself. Thanks Chris for this.

He's posted over 30,000 messages here. One'd think that'd sorta lessen the impressiveness of his responses. Somehow he manages to keep his value high.

In my utter modesty, I think I am to blame for that[^].

So good organisers do not have the possibility to be an MVP ? Article moderation or Q&A edition are also contributing a lot to the site content.

Excellent point, and one I've been trying to decide how to tackle.
My goal is to expand (dramatically) the ability of members to organise the content. Reorganising, re-tagging, re-editing, flagging etc. This would then result in more opportunities for points and bonuses and would then allow us to provide either an MVP or a new category of special status.
Writing content is one thing, but surfacing the good stuff is really, really important.
cheers

This is good news.
If anything, there is still hope for me to get to the MVP status after 13+years here

I wonder if Obama has an exception handler prepared for that in his State of the Union address tomorrow.

It looks like any "DC" party is corrupt: linky[^]

Giusto. Davvero Criminale.
That's why the world's other bastion of corruption, Washington DC, invested millions (milliards, in today's money) in supporting it and destabilising the other parties, after WW2.

In Italy even the simple parish priests during the Mass advocated voting for DC in order to keep "Communism" at bay, under generous payrolls from DC which got its from Washington. The Marshall plan and the short-sightedness of Italian political class caused many of the still lingering problems, since there has been no growth. We lived well until money came "from the US uncle", then it was and still is Third World.

On the karmic side, the criminals that Washington funded expanded their "businesses" only into the US, ruining even more lives there, and never got a solid handhold in any other country.
You'd think that they would have learned from that, but they're still making exactly the same mistakes today.

I totally agree. We're bordering the Soapbox though, I think I'll stop here
