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
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.

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.

Gus Gustafson

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.

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.

I just flagged five posts this member[^] had in the comments section for various articles (they were all pointing back to an amazing post on his own web site just as his QA Answers do). None of the posts showed any votes prior to my report, but when I refreshed his list of Latest Messages, all five of them were gone.
I actually saw the same thing a few days ago, but that was after I had reported a member in the Spam forum, so I shrugged it off, thinking an Admin might have just topped off on coffee. 
Was that a radioactive hamster that bit me the other day or is there a dangerous bug here?

A slap head moment. We had "AutoDeleteSpamMessages" set to true in our settings. This overrode the settings that required a certain number of votes before a message was deleted.

Glad to help, but I am kind of disappointed. I was banking on the radioactive hamster bite thing and was going to have Hamster-Man T-shirts made. I already had a general idea for my costume.

It seems I got some upvotes on an article, but I don't see extra votes under my article's title.
They were 13 before I went to bed yesterday, I can see in my rep history I got an upvote while I was asleep, but I still only got 13 votes.
I might miss some votes from last evening as well, but I'm not sure.
It also seems that the reputationer does not show the rep increase I got (not sure if I did get them on my CP rep).
I already noticed this before when I just posted my article. The view count of my article did not go up, etc.
This is the article: Querying SQL Server 2012: Part I[^].
I am using Chrome, although I don't think that's the problem.
EDIT:
I just noticed my article overview shows that my article has 16 votes, while my article only shows 14.
