They are gone again. Here. I got an email about a comment to my answer, then I checked and there was no comment. I then posted a comment in reply to my own answer, and at that point I was able to see the other comment, and I then replied to that other comment. After I clicked the permalink for the question, I could no longer see any comments.

FYI, I got an email with your "completely pointless comment", but I can't see it in the browser.

Ok,
So I was reading the Oat Meal's "State of the Web", and inbetween laughing so hard I couldn't see stright and picking myself back up off the floor, I happened to notice that he's offered up the use of his "Tumble Beasts" icons, he originally created for Tumblr.

They do kind of look like little green Hamsters, which led me to post this suggestion: Chris, you need to hook up with this guy and have him do up some CP Hamsters.
Just a thought.

Could we move the Profile popup to the left of the member name? That way it won't almost obscure the name / link and make it difficult to get to the member details. At the moment a right click tends to bring up the image related menu rather than the link related if I don't think about what I am doing.

To me, what was depressing was to see all those otherwise smart people fall for it and reply with sarcasm and ridicule under the assumption that they were responding to a drip who was asking for romantic advice in the wrong forum.

Yes, I found that amazing too, as I had to sift through all the replies to see if someone had sussed him, and it was sad to see how many hadn't. 
|
|

|

I did the same, I read every reply to see if at least one person had identified the spamming. Nope, not a single one.

How clever? I just hit /vote to go/ and left it there.

4 years versus 1 year, I'll be more pompous than you in a couple of weeks.

You two, get a room so you can share your pompositousness.

When I think of the number of shots of alcohol I will need to erase that image from mind...

I identified it as spam, a while after I replied (yesterday). And I marked it as spam, and reported the member in his profile as a spammer too!
But when I saw it today, I reported the message (it was removed immediately), and reported the member too. The member profile is now active; may be the ban-hamsters are busy partying. But they WILL visit him.
