You probably should have gone to default the markdown formatting usage to false. So people could have enabled it consciously instead of getting a surprise

no fair hiding it among a bunch of other settings I mentally edited out almost a decade ago because I never need to touch them.
Did you ever see history portrayed as an old man with a wise brow and pulseless heart, waging all things in the balance of reason?
Is not rather the genius of history like an eternal, imploring maiden, full of fire, with a burning heart and flaming soul, humanly warm and humanly beautiful?

When I edit my profile and try to update my Google+ profile ID and save, it's always broken. The system converts it to "httpsplusgooglecomu0PLiebscherposts". The URL I enter is https://plus.google.com/u/0/+PLiebscher/posts[^]. What am I doing wrong?
Thanks,
Phil

Don't enter the full URL, just your profile ID: PLiebscher
There's an example next to the box - the part you need to enter is in bold.

I've fixed it so that it recognises either format. You can enter https://plus.google.com/u/0/+PLiebscher/posts or +PLiebscher or even google.com/+PLiebscher.
I'll have the changes deployed soon.

Thank you very much sir!

From the very beginning, when this feature was first introduced, I notices some inconsistency: when I report some bad question for abuse and see that the question is closes after refresh, the generated list of members was not always correct: sometimes, I saw just one member, which just cannot be the case, is some cases, I saw my name, in some other cases, I did not see it.
But today, for the very first time, I saw a member name listed twice in the same list, and it happened to be my name:
can anybody please help me[^].
It looks flattering, but something is wrong here.

I wonder why should I? I'm reporting on the page content on the page refresh after abuse reporting, not result of some click.

The list of reporters is showing the list for all versions of that item. You reported the item when the item was at version 3, then again at version 4.
It's accurate, but confusing.

That makes sense, but really looks confusing.
And how it explains the absence of the reporting member when I observe that the question is auto-closed after immediate page refresh? Are you saying that I reported on earlier version, and then, before I refresh the page, someone added new version, and then someone also managed to report the abuse one more time, which lead to the closing of the post? It does not look too likely, considering the fact the it is observed often.
Wouldn't it be more logical and simpler to accumulate the list of all reporting members from all version? My logic behind it is: this is because the software performs the closing of the question based on accumulated reports, not based on reports per version.
All right, thank you for the explanation. Anyway, this is really a minor issue, more of a confusion.

Most probably not a bug but my stupid me: The signature that I entered in my profile-settings doesn't show in my forum posts. When I re-open my settings, it's there. I couldn't find anything in a FAQ about it - what am I missing?

|
Fixed

We need a jedi icon!
Something like Yoda ![Green Alien | [Alien]](https://codeproject.global.ssl.fastly.net/script/Forums/Images/alien.gif) in robes with a lightsaber or something.
I propose the hamsters of CP could already mock up something for the 4th of May[^] for our mascotte in the top left corner as a proof of concept and use that design for a real icon to be used in messages.
again just a suggestion...

I already have it. I've had it for years.
|
|
|
|

Probably, so why not use it in the message section next to the other icons? ![Jig | [Dance]](https://codeproject.global.ssl.fastly.net/script/Forums/Images/jig.gif)
