I also stopped receiving the Daily Insider and I don't live in Canada (US). Any suggestions?

While the similar bug for forum messages has been fixed it seems it has "moved" to comments.
[UPDATE]
There were no comments listed since yesterday noon but now they all show up.

Yes, as said in the edit.
Initially I wanted to check a comment using the history but it wans't there - including all comments of the last 24 hours. So I used my list of comments. But visiting the history later, all comments where there.

The title says it all, and the rapid adoption of the dotnet cli tooling is a good motivation.

I added the non-existing tag to your question, and I believe that successfully created it:

Some spammers are getting there by signing up and posting 2 spam "questions": Ilkuikl - Professional Profile[^] - has 553 points, and his spam homepage is visible. Perhaps 575 would be enough?

+1. And while on the topic, I looked at the privileges page and I saw that Silver Participant is enough to "bypass spam checks". But as Silver Participant is extremely easy to get by filling in all data to become a 'Professional', I'd suggest removing Silver Participant for the "bypass spam checks" privilege (or raise it to Gold).

Not to worry - I have the "bypass spam checks" check and that doesn't stop the little darling from grabbing a mail once in a while.

At this point we're going to leave things how they are. It's not perfect, but it's workable

SoapBox1.0 has lost its rules and conditions of membership. It has been replaced by [quote] This member doesn't quite have enough reputation to be able to display their biography and homepage. [/quote]
The rules and conditions are necessary, please return them to their proper place.
Thanks.

It should probably also have the option to report it as "abusive / trolling" or "spam" disabled.

Hmm - that's an interesting one.
We've disabled the bio for low rep members / orgs because we were getting absolutely hammered with bio spammers. To open it up would open it back up for spammers.
What's a sensible and safe alternative? Certain number of members? Certain number of posts? Bio is only visible to members?

How about a hidden flag in the database, which can only be set by the Hamster In Chief via a manual SQL UPDATE?
After all, it's only for the one group.

...and have 13M developers look at me disapprovingly?
No - I think we need to build a proper AI-powered rules engine that, given enough training data, community input, reprogramming, a few minor hacks, some hard-coded logic and 15 layers of modern technology stacks will automatically decide, based on a really, really good random number generator, whether the bio should be displayed.
I couldn't show my face in public otherwise.

I'm thinking you must already have a flag like that, to indicate that the messages can't be reported or voted on.
Even if you can't reuse that, what's one more flag to indicate that the group can't be reported, and always displays its bio?

Make it a privilege, not a right, and make it dependant on the quality of the members. Two or more gold or platinum members means "public homepage" = true.

If something has a solution... Why do we have to worry about?. If it has no solution... For what reason do we have to worry about?
Help me to understand what I'm saying, and I'll explain it better to you
Rating helpful answers is nice, but saying thanks can be even nicer.
