That's not the outcome I was expecting!
Rather than change it to Questions, change the content that appears under it.
On the the front page you have all the various sections, Community, Articles, Show Case, Best Picks, Latest News and the one in "Question" Latest Discussions.
Given that the Q&A questions asked can frequently be just drivel and garbage, I would have thought it be better to maybe ignore them from the frontpage and just keep to the real Discussions that occur under the various programming forums where chances are quality is going to be better and topic variety more varied.

(Select forum from Forums where forum.name Not In ("Lounge, Backroom, Soapbox, site bugs, spam watch, etc.")
) where message.flagged = 'false' sort by message.date desc "

Is there any documentation related to flags in quick answer section? currently we have below flags
- Unclear or Incomplete
- Repost
- Not a question
- Off-topic
- Spam/abusive
for example check below question,
Incremental Search results to feed into a gridview[^] and the comment was made by
Quote: This site does not work like that. We don't write code to order here. You either need to attempt to do this yourself or go to a site where you can hire someone to do it for you.
So it is clear that this question is not fit into quick answer section but the question is which flags we going to use!
Smooth roads never make good drivers.
Smooth sea never makes good sailors.
Clear skies never make good pilots.
Problem free life never makes a strong person.
Be strong enough to accept the challenges of life..
Don’t ask life, ‘Why me?’. Instead say, ‘Try me!’

Its his view only. If some one states something it doesn't mean that its correct and you are suppose to follow it. As per as the question is concerned, you did it right. The explanation OP provided was not clear and you raised the appropriate Flag.
First of all, don't think what others are doing. Use Flags to report what you think. Further, if you are not sure which Flag should be raised where, then leave it. No documentation is available especially for Flags. I think its not required because the names are pretty clear.
- Unclear or Incomplete - Used as you did in this case
- Repost - Used when same question asked by same Member
- Not a question - Write code for....It should do.....type of questions
- Off-topic - (e.g.)How to delete my account? in QA.
- Spam/abusive - Advertising(Spam) or any abuse

It's not a question. It's a request for code. Very straightforward.

...should probably not show threads that have "Spam" or "Abuse" votes.
At the moment pretty much all it is showing is call-girl ads complete with phone numbers...

Earlier it didn't show messages with reports, so I think it has to do something with this[^].

We cache that list so for a few minutes the damned live on.

I can understand that, but in this case since it seemed that no matter how many SPAM votes they got they wouldn't die - they were visible in the lounge for hours, and stayed on the Home page until I created a set of dummy messages to push them off the list. Perhaps a quick check on the cached items to ensure spamVotes == 0 before display? Just with that kind of material on written on the site "Front door" it's going to put some people off...

Not everywhere; hover your mouse over your name at the top of the page and click "My settings".

Look at the top right of this page.
Hover your mouse over your username.
When the drop down opens, click on "My Settings"
There is a "Change..." link right beside "Password" on the first page.
When you have set it, press the "Save my Settings" button at the bottom of the page.

So you're definitely getting other rep events.
As to the incorrect zips - I'm looking into this now.

Well...
I have a few tips and one article, normally a few files are downloaded every day.
It's now 2 days where I only see "Sign in Member" and nothing else, don't think that is correct.
I don't mind the reputation points but was just pointing out that it looks like if something is broken.
Greetings,

I am seeing the same. I use the points thing to see if anyone has downloaded my code (hollow vanity I know  ) and as there are usually several downloads a day it is odd that the last code download I see was 6 days ago.
That may be what it is, but seems odd.
Within you lies the power for good - Use it!

Chris,
Thanks for the update.. didn't want to offend you ... just was wondering if it was fixable... because it is an annoying bug

Why not to have Delete account button somewhere on profile page? The reason is, now a days we are facing too many requests for the same [Example is just below this post].
Further, if member is no more interested here,why not to release him? We can have confirmation email as a security check. What you think?
