Ok. It was just a thought. 
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.

This tip[^] looks like a rather sneaky way to advertise. They may be paying you huge royalties, but somehow I doubt it.
Just say 'NO' to evaluated arguments for diadic functions! Ash

Someone is down voting all the posts in GIT.
I visited the forum an hour back and half of the first page was greyed out. I visited again now and the next page is grey too.
AFAIK, continuous voting is not allowed. So the uni-voter is voting down every single post in intervals.
Could you please look into the issue and kick the uni-tosser on his ar** back.

Ankur,
Not only a single page. I saw 5 pages grayed in GIT  and thought to report Chris about it. Great you already reported here. This is really a bad day for GIT 
|
|
|
|
|
Yeah, I know. I am trying to counter them with my 5's but too soon get a message which stops me from voting for a while.
I am wondering how much time does the voter have? 
Or wait, is he fed up of his life and has nothing interesting to do!?! 
..Go Green..

Not sure...

Counter it the recommended way. 5-vote the gray posts. That way whoever got voted down ends up with more rep points than they'd normally have. That's certainly not what the univoter wants here 
|
|
|
|
|
That's what I am already doing. 
..Go Green..
|
|
|
|
|
Yeah I am trying to make the entire first 2 pages red, but presently I am locked out of voting because of too many votes
|
|
|

First 2 pages are almost back in Blue.
Cheers!

What's astonishing is that the guy covered the first 150 posts and with the vote-blocks in place that prevent vote-bombing he must have patiently waited and taken his time to do this. In fact he may still be up and doing this in the 3rd, 4th, and 5th pages for all I know.

I would not say that's the recommended way. I can clean up the previous mess, but not (easily) the mess that counter-voting makes.

Well I wouldn't say 5-voting results in a mess. It may be unnatural to see a forum with several up-voted posts but no one complains about that.

The account has been removed and the votes reversed.

How did he work around the IP-address based vote-limitation? Did he/she use multiple IP addresses?

Thank you so much!
This completes 30,000 posts in this forum. ![Jig | [Dance]](https://codeproject.global.ssl.fastly.net/script/Forums/Images/jig.gif)
Edit: Just checked, it does. I posted this just to be the 30,000th post poster. Sorry couldn't resist.

Well Done.
Long way to go yet though!

I know. But I would never be able to compete you in post count. NEVER!

The 30,000th post in Site Bugs / Suggestions[ ^] recently is my 3rd feat in posting the magical numbered post. I posted the 500th and 1000th post in GIT.

In the finest tradition of the anally retentive, you now must include this information in your sig.

Do you keep track of how much time you spend on voting issues (reversing, removing accounts, remonstrations, expostulations, exhortations, contemplations, meditations, lamentations)? You know what to do, just do it.

* Bold indicates new messages since 18:36 22 Oct '10
It was about 17:55 22 Oct '10 when I saw this message.
Apart from that, I have seen a lot of inconsistency in the system. Many a times the 'new' messages shown are about 3-4 hours old (most of them, if not all, already read by me). I have found a workaround to it. I usually log out and re log in and everything is fine.
Is there a way to show messages in last 10-15 minutes or about half an hour in a busy day?

I second this...

It's an anomaly in the way the site uses cookies I think. It's not enough to just close the browser instance/session, you need to close all running instances of the browser. (assuming you are on IE 8)
