We need a way to identify posts as "Liberal BullSh*t".

Why stop there? Why not add "Conservative bullshit", "Right-wing nut-job", etc?
Simple solution: If you don't like seeing other people's views expressed freely, then don't visit the Soapbox.

Touchy or not, his post is getting the up-votes so somebody obviously agrees with him 
|

Touchy? I'm not the one who's suggesting that posts he disagrees with have a special flag so he doesn't have to read them.
I appreciate your suggestion was probably meant as a joke, but this isn't really the right place for it.

Just realised it's possible to be nice to people in the Soapbox - is that a feature slip?
|

That bug's been there for years. We've had our best techs on it but we can't seem to squash it.

Check again. You can only be nice to masochists.

If I am at the bottom of a page and have the last reply open then when I hit the 'next' page button it is very close to the abuse button on the reply.
Not sure if I have actually hit the abuse button accidently although I might have done so today.

|

|
I'm open to suggestions as to where it could be placed.
cheers

There are three icons in that group. Maybe move them to the left a bit. That of course puts it over the page '11'/'10' but I suspect those are used far less.
Or looks like there is some empty real estate to move it to the right edge just up a bit.
Or perhaps add a formatting change so if the last reply on a page is opened then there is a border on it which pushes the page bar down a bit.

I've had the same thought as jschell, "Did I just click abuse? I certainly hope not!"
Perhaps change the order about? The Get permanent link, bookmark this, and # upvotes don't have a dropdown associated with them so they wouldn't be as likely to cause problems. Normally I'm trying to click the "Next »" link when the flag message menu pops up. As far as usability goes, I don't usually click on a specific page number while I'm reading through the forums anyway. First and Next page links are what I use 99% of the time.
If not that, maybe have a confirmation prompt for abuse reports? That might be overkill though. Trying to keep the balance between ease of use and making it harder to abuse/misclick.

As almost every week, reputation is broken since Sunday 0 hours (Toronto time).
No points for discussions, messages or QA solutions
But Accepted solutions are working fine.

I think this is a known issue or they had some data issues about this and I believe they have been working on them.
My thought: patience.

As I have already reported, this problem have been here weekly for ages.
But usually for no more than 3 hours.

Do you really bother about some Points here?

Looks like missing points have been restore in between.

What a conflict. I want to to upvote this because it is hilarious but if I do, I'm falling in to your trap.
All well, up-vote posted. 
There are two kinds of people in the world: those who can extrapolate from incomplete data.
There are only 10 types of people in the world, those who understand binary and those who don't.

"rep farmers" ... tasty phrase !
