What's with the ps statement and quoting my article count? The only content on the site is articles?
I've been active for only 1.5 years and have 5k in authority points and 179 answers in QA. Does that qualify me to criticize the site? Have I provided no meaningful content?
Do I feel entitled, hmm... Let me ask you, do your 7 articles make you feel entitled much?
Are you going to attack the credentials of anyone that complains? Zac did it after me. Are you going to pull sh*t out of his profile for a very weak point?http://www.codeproject.com/Messages/4323625/Re-Instant-downvote.aspx[^]

Hello,
I've entered the reputation history page and I've noticed that there are a predefined number of rows there and they can't be changed.
After doing any other pending thing you could have, and of course, if you think that could be a nice thing to do...
Keep up the good great work!

There seem to be some rather misplaced votes hitting the lounge. Both DD and I have been voted down [-16] for extremely innocuous messages.
I'm not normally one to fret over this but it looks very suspicious; spiteful even.

OK, I will win to day or my name isn't Ethel Crudacre! - DD Ethel Crudacre

And will all these downvotes be reversed?
Oh look, you are no longer getting autodownvoted, and yet I am!

Looking at this reply by Chris[^] it seems like the CCC Link in your sig may be the cause for flagging the message as spam by the new (I think soon-to-be old) anti-spam system.

Allegedly if you have lots of links in your post then you are a spambot moider droid.

The first column (date/time) needs a whisker more width. "24 Jul 2012 10:50 PM" wraps.
FF 14, Chrome 20. (not a scoreline!)

I can't replicate the date wrapping. I even have a "nowrap" directive on the style that should stop this. Tested in FF14, Chrome 20 (Second quarter, semi final round)

Weird. All good now. FF, I cleared cache which might have updated CSS. Chrome, "virgin" copy on a different machine, now works.

This question[^] has two solutions offered. Solution 1 has a pale green header, although in the forum it does not show as answered. Is this colorisation a result of the number of votes, and is there a common rule for how this gets applied?
One of these days I'm going to think of a really clever signature.

If you have 3 or more votes of 5 for an answer then it's highlighted with a light green header (not a solution but highly rated answer)
AFAIR, it's minimum 3 votes with minimum rating of 4.5 and the light green header starts appearing suggesting possible answer.

I posted a message to the lounge, http://www.codeproject.com/Messages/4319259/What-if-xkcd.aspx[^] and the post appeared on the page already down voted - which is odd because their was no time at all for a human to read it, let alone move the mouse and down vote.
A quick check on the rep events, and it looks like somehow posting this I managed to report myself as abusive at the same time as I posted the message...

I don't think it's just you, every topic after yours has a univote as well.

Looks like that just happened to me as well: 4 actions at the same moment in time, exactly as above.

Happened to me, I was uni'd before my post showed up for me after I clicked "post". That is impossible.
It appears there is someone with a downvoting cannon in the Lounge.

Yours breaks the pattern, all the others were
a) New topics
b) Contained links
Well there goes both of those theories.

Same here. Responded to four messages and got down voted 4 times (-16 * 4)

We've just implemented an anti-spam system from a commercial provider. The content of new posts is passed through their checks ("hundreds of tests", they say) and out the other end comes a definitive yea/nay on whether it's spam.
It looks like I may have to cancel our subscription to their service.
