@NormalHuman Good idea. I'll do that tomorrow, because now I have to go for today.

weird... I requested a deletion of my Area 51 account, the countdown started and ended hours ago, but only the 'discussion zone' was zapped - and the account is still there...

user259867

@santiago How did you request it?

user259867

@LowerClassOverflowian Next gen work isn't completed. To delete your A51 profile, edit it to say "delete me" in the About Me section and email us. If you already did that and changed your mind, remove "delete me" from the profile. — Anna Lear ♦ Feb 13 '14 at 19:00

@NormalHuman wait, you're saying @StackOverflow wasn't taken on Twitter?

user259867

@Undo It was, SE took over recently. No word on whether Operations Specialists were involved, or whether there were casualties. Ask on Meta, maybe?

user259867

7:42 PM

Meta.SO is appropriate, I suppose.

Undo

mSE gives internet points

but no time to ask now

Dronehinge

definitely closeable on meta.SE

Undo

eh, why?

It might focus on one scenario, but one could word it as "How does SE get Twitter names they want?"

Dronehinge

yea, that'd be good

are we sure SE owns the SO twitter? doesn't look like it

user259867

@JasonPunyon @rossipedia stop trying to change baseline to "devs are years late" and just get your butt to work on time like everyone else.

Perhaps the account is the result of @community user's newfound sentience. Its been known to use twitter before.

rlemon

it was my understanding that when I downvoted an answer which then gets deleted I get my -1 back.

is that correct?

Dronehinge

yea

rlemon

how long will that potentially take?

Dronehinge

<15 mins, usually pretty quick i think

rlemon

8:23 PM

I had thought it was instant. not looking to be the case any longer (took a few minutes)

or maybe I just never noticed before

Undo

@rlemon Sometimes going to the deleted post and manually expanding the vote counts can help.

rlemon

I'm not overly concerned about a few minutes

just wondering if it changed or not

Undo

Nope, it's just caching

Dronehinge

@NormalHuman not even 40 minutes in and already hot meta post

Santa Claus

@rlemon Oh no! You could've lost an entire internet point!

rlemon

8:31 PM

@SantaClaus not the point or concern.

can't I be interested in how the platform works and is evolving?

@rlemon of course

@HoboSapiens I don't think the question will be welcome there

Hobo Sapiens

@bummi Maybe not, but it seemed a better place than StackOverflow where it's definitely not welcome. I guess we just close it.
