Concentrate, @Bart. Clear you mind. Travel back to your childhood. Remember, when you were 3 years old? Now that was a holiday. :D

Guys, I can see some potential in this question, hidden very deep behind the noise. Considering total rewrite, what do you think? Worth the time?

rene

The potential being?

Do you think the question is: How can I see posts that are shared in either the datadump or in SEDE?

@ShadowWizard Hmmm, the OP thanked me for my helpful comment....

Shadow Wizard

@rene below each question in Stack Overflow, there is "Know someone who can answer? Share a link to this question via email, Google+, Twitter, or Facebook" so he want to know how many and who exactly clicked those buttons to share questions

I don't think it's possible or even monitored, but still that's a valid request

rene

07:58

Yeah, I guess that is the info he is looking for

As I said in my comment the posthistory table has type reserved for it but it is either not populated in production, considered a secret or missed in the export

@AnnaLear: I don't want to create too much of a fuss around 2 user accounts that had a lot of cross-serial-voting and answer accepting annulled, but I see that all the posts are cached as having been accepted still.

I cannot shift the cache by editing the answers either.

Should I post a bug report (with the associated attention towards the accounts) or can you or another dev kick the rendered page caches for these posts?

Related to meta.stackexchange.com/questions/234443/…; the two accounts involved had a series of posts forcibly marked as unaccepted.

@FinalContest I'll say this one last time: if you want it to be dealt with (if here is an actual "it") contact the team. They are the only ones who can see all in full detail and take appropriate actions. If you're not going to do that, stop whining. I could of course supply a possible explanation of my own where it concerns a reason (which surprisingly would align with your revenge theory) but you're not going to like it and it's an assumption. So let's not.

One less user to ignore, Final, I'm going now. Cya!

Final Contest

I am leaning towards using my binding vote to close it and then delete vote it ...

cya @ShadowWizard

@ShadowWizard Um. Laura just removed the [status-completed]

...?

rene

@Doorknob Management demanded more status-completed in the monthly report. The report is done, back to reality...

why are people voting on this SSCCE stuff here? stackoverflow.com/questions/24410130/…

Honestly, the issue can be reproduced by the code in all fairness.... Luckily, I can have my binding reopen once it gets another close vote.

rene

@FinalContest use your re-open vote...

Final Contest

@rene: I would rather not, but people would actually think...

right, I cannot reopen apparently...

that is a weird one

shouldn't I be able? The c++ tag was there initially, and I have gold badge about that one.

sounds like a meta report?

or is it only for cases when it is bindingly closed?

rene

I'm not sure how that works.

Final Contest

let us ask it on meta to get another godzillion downvotes

@FinalContest Doesn't it only work for duplicates?

Final Contest

ah, right.....

fair enough.

now, we got a valid question closed which can be reproduced....

clap-clap.

the first two close votes were valid

well, kind of valid.

then the OP updated the question, so I am not sure about the other two before rene.

I would personally suspend them for being inconsiderate.

they are probably robo-closer, and they do not have any track record in the tag.

They would deserve the review relax IMHO ...

well, I am hoping for the community's help here and trust in me:

reopen-pls stackoverflow.com/questions/24410130/…

rene

I've edited that question somewhat into shape and voted for reopen

@nogard: please stop robo-reviewing. The issue can be reproduced after the edit. I do not think you checked the edit. — Final Contest 23 secs ago

We need to re-work the edit ban system. It's too crazy right now.
