I am using Chrome from OS X, and my images are always rejected regardless of what I provide.

I have been seeing peoples down voting an answer which actually is not wrong. I suggest that if anyone tries to downvote any answer in Q/A section then he must require a comment about why he down voted it. It will help many peoples and stop inappropriate downvoting too.
Please consider it.
With Regards

The opposing view being that some members will not want to vote down other members for fear of retaliation. Of course, arguments are sure to ensue as well.
|
|
|
|
|
It is good don't you think. Someone will only down vote an answer if he has a good reason to down vote it and not because he has the ability to down vote it.
|
|
|
|
|
Of course this can't be beaten in any way, say by creating a sock puppet account specifically for downvoting.
|
|
|
|
|
There can be a way to add a flag method. If an account get 'n' number of flags based on the user's weight who has flagged it and in a given time interval, then that account is suspended. How about that?

What you are asking for is already in the articles, and there are still people voting 1 and giving comment "aäisrh a nc" or "my vote of 1" or whatever other nonsense.

That is already implemented (a.k.a. reports)
About the whole point... this is just making live more difficult to the CP-Staff programming things that only are useful for something that actually doesn't matter at all: a.k.a. Rep Points.
Take a look to the last sentence of my signature. If someone who you answered says "thank you, your answer helped me"... That should actually be the most important reward. The points... whatever

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.

This actually is a nice point  but I guess what you are saying about is actually implemented in case of articles. I actually wanted the very same to be implemented in case of answers in Q/A part. Yet, you actually have a strong point.

I'm saying that based on having seen the ugly face of people arguing on the internet before. Retaliation and arguments will happen. I've had people follow me around and downvote me because they got mad about something. Used to bother me, now... Not so much. I'm sure the longer you stay on the site the more you'll learn to be dismissive of people who don't deserve attention, they usually go away.
|
|
|
|
|
I definitely understand your point They might go away but they can stir your faith (if not yours then someone else' ) so a method to stop them must exist.
|
|
|
|
|
So are we revisiting this issue.
I would think that the following simple rules should apply:
1. No reason, no downvote. This would apply across all of CP.
2. No downvote for OP of a question.

Hi Chris,
Thanks for adding my points.
My points before unsubscribe are some where around 2500, even though i again subscribed with my new email ID i didn't get the points added and figure i have previously. After you adding my points still it is less. Please refer the reputation graph for more information and add my points back.

I reviewed the reputation events related to the mailouts and they are accurate

Hi
A small thing, but if you are in that area, can you move the red flag please? The reason is that when you are on the last message on a page & you move the mouse down & right to the Next link, just before you get there, you roll over the flag & by the time you get to the Next link, it is already the Spam context menu entry.
As I say, only a small thing, and as far as I know, I haven't marked anything as spam inadvertently, but it is a petty annoyance.
Regards, Stewart

Is it possible to recall a message that was "removed" because of pecker-heads?
http://www.codeproject.com/Messages/4726540/Optimization.aspx[^]
This is one of the reasons I have dramatically reduced my participation here. "Reputation" points is nothing but a number, instead of being used for something meaningful, such as making it harder to have a message "automatically removed".

I've reinstated the message.
Rep points are meant to *specifically* give us a tool to pick those who are halfway sensible and should have the power to rid the site of the ferals. However, in any group of people you're always going to get those who abuse the power.
However, in this case it seems you've been the victim of a bug[^] that was introduced with our caching work last week. I'm on it.
