@Makyen - User was also suspended for voting irregularities approximately on April 20th, since voting irregularities suspensions, seem to be historically 7 days. — Ramhound 21 secs ago
Entirely unrelated to this question I think! Its a set of unrelated events and OP ought to have had chat access at the time of the question. — Journeyman Geek 43 secs ago

@Ramhound While there are circumstances where a main site suspension will also result in a chat suspension, that was not the case for the user at the time I first looked at their chat account, nor did I change that. If the suspension on SU should have affected the user's chat account is a choice that the moderators on SU could make. — Makyen 5 secs ago

I agree here. In my experience, the dialog takes a while to load, and during that time I click on the empty text field to compose my question, and that registers as dismissing the prompt so it pops up very briefly and then closes immediately and I never see it. — Sonic the Anonymous Hedgehog 24 secs ago

Hi Fabrizio Stellato, welcome to the Stack Exchange Network Meta site! I'm not sure which search brought you here but the problem you describe will not be answered on this specific site. To get an expert's answer for the topic of your question you'll have to find and then re-post on the proper site. Check How do I ask a good question and What is on topic on the target site to make sure your post is in good shape. Your question is definitely off-topic on Meta and is better deleted here. — samcarter_is_at_topanswers.xyz 6 secs ago
Unable to reproduce. I'm able to custom flag a post here that I've already flagged with a custom flag which was deemed helpful. — Sonic the Anonymous Hedgehog 15 secs ago

Maybe the easiest way to support that is by allowing HTML with
<li value="2"> but at the moment only <a> and <img> tags are allowed to have attributes, any other tags with attributes will be stripped. Adding this might have side-effects on other content on the page. I wouldn't hold my breath until this is implemented. — rene just nowNote that there is a workaround when you need control over the numbers: meta.stackexchange.com/a/234385 — rene 58 secs ago

@SonictheAnonymousHedgehog Hmm. Maybe the issue is specific to the post I mentioned. Looking at my flag history, I was also able to do this (re-flagging a custom flagged post previously marked as "helpful"), but just not on this specific post. — galacticninja just now

The new changes mostly impact new, unregistered users. For that reason, I don't think featuring it makes that much sense, @Bergi — naturally some unregistered users might look at Meta, or catch a glimpse of it in the sidebar, but I'd say most unregistered users wouldn't really read this. Or is there a different reason for your suggestion? — JNat ♦ 54 secs ago

@JNat speaking for myself, big wave of new users (accounts) is something curators might want to have some mental preparation for. not that these new accounts are really posting that much, but still. — starball 31 secs ago

I was thinking about this while reading the "mouse" version you posted, but then how to select the answer(s) vs. question you want to save via keyboard? — NotTheDr01ds 43 secs ago
I'd add in a third-option: API access to saves. We used to have API access to "Favorites", but it never was updated for "Saves". — NotTheDr01ds 55 secs ago
@NotTheDr01ds same way as you select a post for flagging, commenting, voting.
j,k,u. API access is a nice idea. I'd encourage a new feature-request post for that. honestly, for our use-case, some sort of scripting/automation is best. — starball 22 secs agoUnable to reproduce on SO or MSO.

Markdown is limited by design. If you want specific formatting that works around those limitations, I think "typing two spaces" is a reasonable way to achieve that. The only thing easier would be a workaround that only requires typing one character? — Aaron Bertrand just now

Not sure if it'll fit your intent, but I feel like giving in example in codeblocks/fences and explaining that that you're escaping the period/fullstop with a / might be useful in seeing what's actually going on behind the scenes, — Journeyman Geek 53 secs ago

By escaping the list, you lose the semantic information too, which means that screen readers won't be able to navigate it as well. (Using a table, however, would allow other screen reader features to be used.) — Laurel 42 secs ago

The error message from the post Shadow mentions is also an Uncaught TypeError, "t.state is null". "Cannot read properties of null" sounds like it could imply the same. Maybe the review-v2-transpiled.ru.js script is slightly different from the review-v2-transpiled.en.js script? — Joachim 46 secs ago

I'm no expert on what's on topic on our Artificial Intelligence stack, but you should always take the tour and read up in the help centre about what's on topic on a site before posting anywhere on the network. — W.O. 55 secs ago
Dunno. You're not a newb though, so you might be expected to show some initiative in finding the site - perhaps that's what the downvoter was thinking. — W.O. 6 secs ago
@W.O. I already tried to do this and I didn't find the best site, the question is interdisciplinary, hence the problem. — Marco 14 secs ago
Interdisciplinary you say. Needs breaking down into its components and asking about each on specialist sites until you've sufficient understanding to put the pieces together yourself. — W.O. 37 secs ago
@W.O. Yes, I'm not a newbie, I already took the initiative and didn't find the best site, that's why I posted the question and I'm using the site-recommendation tag. — Marco 55 secs ago
I also didn't downvote, but keep in mind that you're not just expected to do the research, but also show the research. Listing out specific sites you looked at and explaining why you thought each one wasn't a good fit would have likely prevented the vote. — Sonic the Anonymous Hedgehog 10 secs ago
@W.O. Ok, thanks, I will try to break it into two, the first will be in Cross Validated, later when I have the appropriate answer, I will post it again on Stack Overflow. Although I still don't agree with the issue being closed on Stack Overflow, after all the machine learning tag exists there, and because of that there are interdisciplinary issues there, right? — Marco 53 secs ago

Yep, I had to ask for help before I was able to log into that portal. That isn't something we can fix without staff :( — cocomac 37 secs ago
9:02 PM
@Marco I believe what you describe might happen, sometimes, if someone on staff happened to see your ticket come in and changed its status in some way pretty quickly. Sometimes a response that isn't automatic may feel like it is. This isn't always guaranteed to happen, and any manual action required will all depend on how busy staff already are when your ticket comes through. Like if you go out and wait for the bus, and one time you only have to wait 30 seconds before the bus appears... then expecting the bus to always appear within 30 seconds of your arrival might not be reasonable. — Aaron Bertrand just now

9:18 PM
@Marco It can sometimes take until the next business day, yes. I don't think there are any guaranteed response times; even if your issue is a dire emergency, there still has to be someone seeing it, who's able to do anything about it, in order to do anything about it (sadly, neither of those is me - I don't have access to that ticketing system). As an added complication, it's getting into dinnertime on Friday on the US east coast, and well past that in EU. — Aaron Bertrand 50 secs ago

As far as the site is concerned, that answer was unethically provided and has been deleted. I would hope your flag will be declined for the obvious reasons. What you should do is wait for a legitimate answer and, if you're satisfied, award the bounty to that answer. — President James K. Polk 20 secs ago
11:22 PM
@TimurShtatland To clarify, is your broader question, "A deleted answer solved my issue, and I'd like to give a bounty to it - what should I do?" or "Is it a bad idea to give bounties to suspended users, for the reasons you listed?" — cocomac 38 secs ago
