As a relatively new user, I'm curious about something I read in the help topics about reputation points. The help text states: You can earn a maximum of 200 reputation per day from any combination of the activities below. Bounty awards, accepted answers, and association bonuses are not subject ...

@iStimple I just tried running a query for Jon Skeet, it really is too slow, he has too many answers, you'd have to process them in smaller batches.

@bjb568 Still not working for me: TypeError: undefined is not an object (evaluating 'unsafeWindow.fkey.value')

Appending a script might have been more reliable (sorry).

How?!

Just how?!

By the way, I've seen 3 edits from that user only removing the tag name from the title (nothing else), so watch out for that.

@AstroCB there was anything else to improve that the editor missed?

AstroCB

@Braiam The wording at the bottom could certainly be modified: deleting four characters isn't worth the two rep he got for the edit.

It's mostly a problem because he's done the same on a few other posts.

Dear Apple: when I update iTunes, I most assuredly don't need to restart my computer. If you think I do, then you either need to better understand Windows, or fix your stupidly bloated software that I only use because the music I want isn't on Google Play Music.

^ that always puzzled me... can anyone explain why?!?

@AstroCB Heh? Works on Ninjakit on Safari. You can try unsafeWindow.fkey().fkey. Or grab the hidden input element thru document.

@AstroCB Inviting them to the robo party...

@bjb568 It...auto-downvotes?

Weird: no errors now, but all it does is downvotes.

Flags, too, but doesn't post to chat.

I'm not liking how you don't know who reviews VLQ flags anymore: now that mods are handling them, I'm hesitating to flag that way because I know that the review queue will delete them, but mods will decline the flag.

Why was my NAA flag on this declined? stackoverflow.com/a/24263619/3366929

@AstroCB Sometimes. Sometimes they all get approved (some disputed).

@AstroCB It is an answer (however low quality blah blah blah).

AstroCB

@bjb568 If it makes sense to delete, though, it will be deleted. Mods are looking for specific things, and not all NAA/VLQ have them.

@bjb568 But it's not. The question has three other perfectly fine/acceptable answers and that should be an edit, not an answer.

bjb568

@AstroCB Almost all questions on the home page should be deleted.

@AstroCB "This fixed it" is an answer.

AstroCB

@bjb568 Your edit makes it seem more that way, but it certainly didn't seem like it when I came across it.

Using this, I might add.

@bjb568 How about this: VLQ is for things that cannot ever be salvaged. If the close reason is 'why isn't this code working... requires code' or Unclear what you're asking, it's automatically salvageable.

Really, nothing except for gibberish and really horrible stuff (really bad questions) should be flagged VLQ if it's a question.

Please don't approve minor or invalid…
