Precisely.
I can see someone getting peeved with your message his was a response to - there are some ... um ... delicate souls ... here who can get "over enthusiastic" when they see even censored swearwords - but his was just shouty.
I see no reason for banning either. It's possible it's a vendetta thing: we know he got banned before.

Given that the problem with the thread is that no-one could tell what the Hell he was talking about, he did take it in a direction that few would have ("you have the right to remain silent", indeed).
I vote he's reinstated because I still don't know what, why, who, or even whether he was celebrating (telling people to change the language of a third-party site explains none of that).

I have a feeling there was liquid happiness involved.

It looks kinda wobbly.

Anyone can say absolutely anything to/about me in fun, but I reserve the right to not accept maliciousness (that's kinda one of the things that being English is about).
I don't think he was being soberly malicious; it read more like he was drunk and bombastic (annoyance level +1), he somewhat strongly implied that everyone was idiotic for not getting his opinion by looking at a wiki page (annoyance level +2), and he would not say what he was talking about (annoyance level +2).
So yeah, "a little peeved" describes it well enough.

I've just learned that some of his 'controversial' post, may be because of using Google Translate to communicate with us...
But even not - he is not spammer or abusive...

Controversial, only if you don't agree with him.
But troll, no.

I second that.
I think they already implemented that. I even recall seeing the members' names on a member's profile whom they had reported. Not sure why they have undone that now...

Wow, stop, I was being sarcastic ! I don't think public shaming would solve anything, but make it worse !

But seriously, they did implement public disclosure of the members who had voted a member on his "closed" profile page and I think it was a good idea. Not sure why they have discontinued it though.

In the ASP.NET section[^], I was told that is not about questions and answers only, but it is for discussions too.
So why is the text on the button "Ask question"? Shouldn't that be "New discussion" as it is here. I believe that would make more sense, since I had to add a suggestion, not a question; that was ambiguous there.

I shouldn't post that here, because that wasn't a suggestion for this website or its developers, instead it was for general ASP.NET developers.
Anyways, Richard had me covered and helped me to post such stuff as a tip.
Thanks for your time too Rohan.

Shouldn't the author of an article (also tip/trick) know who voted and what voted in his work? I do not mean unveiling the voter's identity, but the voter's status. For instance, status like: admin, mvp, author, less-than-30-days-old-member, etc... This would allow the author of an article to conclude more consistent information about his/her work. Maybe this is already possible, but I don't find the correct button to click.

Yes: Because to make it transparent.
No: To avoid to fight back.
If one publish an article/tip/trick one has to be ready to get the Feedback. So I think it is not needed to known who has voted, but a must should be that downvote Needs to be commented.

You agree with me, although you didn't perceived it. There's no risk of any fight, because as I wrote in my OP, "I do not mean unveiling the voter's identity". So, any fight back is impossible. But, it is important to know the "vote quality".
|
|

|

To some extent you can already see this information since the votes are weighted. Have a look at http://www.codeproject.com/script/Membership/Reputation.aspx[^]
On the other hand, your suggestion makes an assumption that a vote from a member with more points is more valuable than a vote from a member with low points. Personally I don't see any reason why this would be true
