Due to the "privacy by default" concept, it might be a good idea to change the default status, less people will complain about it

The Spam flag, and Follow button, have slid over to the right of the page for some inexplicable reason. They used to be nicely positioned near the actual user name which was the most convenient location.

In a second thought... a bit more separation between the two widgets / buttons would be nice too. Maybe one on the left and one on the right of the Summon-Name?
Or the red flag in the old position and the "follow" in the new position?

It made me stop and think as well - which is a problem early on a Monday - but I can see why: it makes it more of a "positive action" to go near it, so it doesn't get hit by accident.
Possibly the "Follow" should be on the left so it's easier to spot, and I'd like to be sure that rogue profiles won't "push" the report flag a thousand scroll pages right. If it stays aligned to the "screen" right margin rather than the "text" margin it should be OK.
And a thought: if it does stay in the same place, then handling flood spammers should be easier - the old version meant "move to a new page, hunt around with the mouse, click". If it stays in the same place that should reduce the RSI we get reporting several hundred asshats.

So this was exactly the purpose: to provide consistency in the layout.
I'll make a tweak to provide more separation of the Follow button.

Thanks! Once I found the flag, I like it. In the old location, I found that mousing to it often activated dropdowns that I had to detour off to close. Hopefully now it is a bit "out of the way" I'll encounter that less often.
Cheers,

The usually see the problem on Q&A answers while other parts are working fine.
Today, I got the problem on an answer while moderating articles was working.

You can't downvote in the lounge, so those must have been "abuse" votes. Inappropriate votes as well, IMHO.

Naive moi ! The thought that post might have been reported as whatever ... never crossed me mind. I was delusional enough to think someone might find it relevant and useful

There was a bug (and maybe still lives) that when you have a response to a post closed later you not only will get one -1 (for removing your comment, that gave you +1) but a second -1 will be there too... Never saw four however...

Can you still see the repeated -1's? I looked through your rep and couldn't find any of them.

Thanks, Chris, Yes, they are on the second page of my rep, now.
However, now that I am no longer surprised at the idea anyone could think my post was "abuse:" ... this does not concern me; I only reported this because I thought it might reflect a site bug.
And, perhaps, I deserve a rebuke for posting code, since, in the past, I have raised the issue of lounge posts that, imho, would benefit the community more if they were in the language discussion, or other, forums.
cheers, Bill
