Still not working, for example this answer[^] isn't listed in rep list nor counted.

Happened once in Forums, and once in Quick Answers. Supplied an answer, noticed a typo (my typing skills have degraded lately), and gone in and edited it. Later, looking at reputation events, neither response makes it there, wither for the initial answer or for the edit.
Cheers,

Actually, neither did the above report - and I never edited that.

I personally do not see the logic in requiring 6 to 10 more votes, when 5 member's votes should be more than adequate to accomplish the mission, and still stay within a safe margin of error.
I have noticed that it can take more than 24 hours to kick a spammer, with 10 votes, where if it was 5 they would have been gone much sooner.

The problem is that some users were misusing the Abuse feature because they couldn't downvote posts - with the result that the "target" member was getting kicked off. As a result, the limit had to be raised.
Changes have been made which are a bit more "aggressive" when it comes to spammers: Bugs and Suggestions[^] so that hopefully will improve teh situation.
And most of the time, they don't last an hour, let alone a day! The shortest I can recall is well under a minute!
Bad command or file name. Bad, bad command! Sit! Stay! Staaaay...

Ok. I still think 10 is too much, and pointless.

7. I think 7 is a magnificent number. 5 is too "normal."
There are only 10 types of people in the world, those who understand binary and those who don't.

So, biblical.

That could be 3, 40, or many other numbers. No, 7 is a magnificent prime. Don't get all religious gooey on us now.

Seems to be working now - I'm guessing it was a database slowness due to the DB upgrade this afternoon

It's still not working. There is no error reported, no "attempts" message, and the comments never show up in QA.
It seems you cannot post comments to Solutions in QA. Posting comments to the original question seems to work.

If I add an @link in a forum message anyone with the username link would get a message that they've been mentioned in a message.
But if I post an email message to someone and add @chris-maunder in it, would you get that message as well?
|

|
|
|
Direct emails, no.

Maybe something to add to the todo list (low priority). I sent a private message today where I felt that it would've been nice if I could CC someone (you).

Forward it later?

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.

Nah, wasn't that important.
I'll make a proper mail when I've sorted my thoughts together.

Please let me know if you see any weirdness around the forums, Quick Answers or Article posting systems, and also if you have any issues with moderating spam.
We've done a fairly major update to the spam handling system, which means it's slightly more vicious than previous. It now has a "show no mercy" mode and we're hoping it doesn't get too angry. To counter this, most of you have gained a little more protection from the spam filter. Swings and roundabouts...
Good luck.
cheers

I think I can see what you did.

I have not observed any weirdness in the forums. Well there is a guy ranting about the MS VPN in The Lounge...
I am not sure I saw much difference in the handling of the spam wave that started Friday night (10:50 PM, US PDT). That wave was intense with a large number of new accounts each making a single post - later the accounts started doing multiple posts.
As far as I can tell, all posts were caught by the spam filter, but I did notice that a few of the members were killed off right away by @OriginalGriff, @Richard-MacCutchan, @daveauld, @taditdash and myself. However, I do not see the pattern, so I am wondering if that is working as intended. Here is a sample: Member Profile[^].
I am also wondering about member profiles that look like this: Member 12808573[^] and this Member 12808567[^]. Are they gone? Did the new spam filter AI take them out?

Yes these members' profile looks weird.
