There's no way to check, and as points are so unimportant, why would you really want to? Seriously, if someone wanted to downvote you and the votes weren't anonymous, they'll just create a SockPuppet account.

Yes there is, if you're an admin.

Try this:

Go to the "My Settings" page[^], go to the "Newsletters & Emails" tab, and uncheck the Newsletter which you don't longer want to receive.

When you click the unsubscribe link it takes you to a page that provides the option to unsubscribe from the email type whose link you clicked on, plus a link that will take you to a page that will allow you to unsusbscribe from all emails.

Can you please confirm that, after unsubscribing from a given email, you are still getting emails from that particular mailout?

Should we stop showing TOP....list in quick answers section

Re: Should we stop showing TOP....list in quick answers section

[My intention is not to blame anyone personally. Some members really deserve it]

Many members are here just to be in list of Top experts in 24hrs or Top experts this month. I request you to please go through that list.

You will soon realize what i am trying to say. Due to some member's posts,quality of the content suffers. Some time i feel that,some questions serves as just another search engine.Its ok with some obvious questions,but is it good every time? Well,according to guidelines we can't do anything with this. This list was made with some good reasons. But i think some changes should be made.

I will appreciate valuable views from you.

Yes it does. As it ultimately affects the quality of the contents.

code project have suggestion like if i post comment then if some have replied to that comment then notification added

but there should be whole notifications like if i post comment and solutions are added to that question then notification can come from this discussions would be broader for one question.....and i can know what happened to that questions ratings would be easier Smile | :)

Then there will be bunch of notifications. Notification is provided in order to let you know something happened in your thread. If Ankit post the question,Rohan commented on it,and ABC posted answer on it. Then that solution might be useful for Ankit so notification will be there for you(author of the question),but it may or may not be important for Rohan.

What you do by knowing this? That is important for the one who asked the question,not for you. The ultimate goal is to be helpful to OP and share the knowledge with everyone. Many things can be coded many ways,so your target is to provide with the best possible solution. If YOU want to know about something better,than post your own question and be the OP.

If you still want to know what happened to that thread than you can simply follow it from the list of your answer.

Than you can follow that question manually. It may not be the case every time,so notifications for this reason won't make any sense.

Then you can go to your events history and have a check in the questions you have answered lately to see if anything was added after yours. Or you can use you own bookmarks here in CP.

I do it in questions where I am curious about the develope of the thread. But people who help a lot and answer many questions would be 1 hour per day deleting the notifications.

On the other side... CP would increase the traffic of emails exponentially. Everytime a question is answered, one email to all the people who answered or commented there... what a bunch of not really necessary post. In addition, how to know if the answer is a legitime one or a spam one?

For those and many other reasons... I don't think is a good idea to add notifications like that. At least not without the possibility to disable them in the settings of the account.

M.D.V.

If something has a solution... Why do we have to worry about?. If it has no solution... For what reason do we have to worry about?
Help me to understand what I'm saying, and I'll explain it better to you
Rating helpful answers is nice, but saying thanks can be even nicer.
