They said they'd recompile and reobfuscate MCP using the given toolkit, but the change is not documented, and the exception wouldn't be trace-able without code required to reproduce it.
Our current badges looks like a simple dot. Why don't we change the badge shape from dot to something like in the below image or any other symbols?

jsFiddle is frequently used in web design questions to provide examples of working or non-working code.
Because links open by default in the same window/tab you're currently using, quite often I'll view the query, close the tab, and lose the question.
Obviously this isn't hard to remedy on a ca...
I find it frustrating that this is the exact same issue I brought up on meta 6 months ago. The exact same moderator declined the post, citing exactly the same reasons. The discussion that happened in my post proved that the majority of people disagreed with these reasons. I'd have hoped that moderators would adhere to the community consensus in these situations, rather than "going solo" regardless. — Matt2 mins ago
I declined those flags mainly because they are accepted answers on both of those questions. I will agree that these are not the best answers, but someone found them helpful (it was accepted and/or upvoted) so I disagree with removing them and will typically decline these flags. Prior to becomin...
I declined the flag for the following reasons:
the OP accepted the answer so they found this link helpful to solve their problem - removing this doesn't make the internet a better place
You didn't at all attempt to get the user to expand the answer via a comment, etc before flagging it. I add...
^the first one is the answer matt is referring to in his comment, the lower one is the answer on my MSO post
I gained a lot of knowledge from my meta post, no more naa's ever for me
@InfiniteRecursion why no more. if we are sure that it is naa then we can flag and if we are not sure then we can like if it is accepted or link only then we can flag as vlq
I disagree with the idea to be able to delete posts from a review queue based on the correctness of the answer. THIS ANSWER explains when to use low-quality-flags.
While in the Low Quality Review Queue your task is to tell whether the question/answer you are reviewing is
This question/answ...
So what if the question asks "how do I split a string by slashes" and an answer instead says "you shouldn't use classes as they do not follow OOP principles"? — Qantas 94 Heavy1 min ago
but the OP is in the low quality posts - is that a low quality? NO it ain't. You shouldnt be able to delete a post based on the context - if it's incorrect or wrong DOWNVOTE, if it doesnt answer the question - NAA
Q: "I think there should be an option when you select "Recommend Deletion" for "Does not answer the question being asked". - to me that means you are in a low quality queue and want to vote to delete a post based on the corretness of the answer rather than on the actual flag it has received... that's two different worlds aint it?
that's all wrong to start off with...that's missing the point of reviewing the flags...
the point of VLQ queue is to decide if a post should be deleted
@vba4all are we? How?
"The sky is blue because of rayleigh scattering. Longer wavelengths reflect less than longer ones." is not useful if the question is "How do I make an iframe resize base on its content?".
Sure - there's plenty of cruft that gets missed initially but turns up later for one reason or another. If folks are encountering bad posts, then it's worth taking the time to fix or get rid of them.
Of course, occasionally stuff gets flushed into the queue that isn't really problematic at all; ...
@JanDvorak that would deserve a downvote and possibly a NAA flag -> This was posted as an answer, but it does not attempt to answer the question. It should possibly be an edit, a comment, another question, or deleted altogether.
I think there should be an option when you select "Recommend Deletion" for "Does not answer the question being asked"
The problem with NAA is that through it says "but it does not attempt to answer the question" most people interpret it as "but it does not attempt to answer any question at a...
oh yeah definitely, but it should be removed because: *This is commentary on another post, not an answer “This does not provide an answer to the question. To critique or request clarification from an author, leave a comment below their post.”*
What does the Recommend Deletion do in the low quality review queue ?
Who does it recommend deletion to ?
Do a sufficient number of recommended deletion votes auto delete the post ?
