@JasonC Are you doing that just because you don't think his bug is significant enough? It's not uncommon to selfpost bugs here…

Jason C

@bjb568 No.

No I am not doing it because I don't think his bug is significant enough.

@rene He's wondering how many of those 1-rep users should have been automatically deleted by the system, but weren't because of some auto deletion throttle. I.e. he's questioning how many of those 1-rep users actually still belong in the user list.

@nicael TL;DR: All of SE's front end is suck. It was hacked together by incompetent front end devs and glued together with frameworks and libraries. Look, they use table layout.

I'm pretty sure [websites] isn't particularly specific, nor is recommended for use.
