Well, meh, then.

No wonder only 200 people have it.

Worth repeating: I hit the rep cap on my birthday, as well as my first two gold badges just before that

@ShadowWizard I'm thinking of updating my question (the really old one I linked to) with the new viewpoint as a mod.

sd why

Huh?? I'm outta that.

meta.stackexchange.com/questions/tagged/niche-area

just found this area, it's pretty niche

does anyone care about Title Case Question Titles on this site other than me?

guess I'm talking to myself here

I worry about this site more than its employees probably :p

I'm not a huge fan of title case

Title case is icky.

if Smokey doesn't notify about title case, maybe he should

at least for questions which get above some >3 or >5 threshold otherwise it might get too spammy

SHOUTING

That frickin' format regex gets tricky, I have to start over and over again. But well, my regex fu is a bit rusty :-P

@bro In general it's as much well received as ASAP

put it another way, I'm ok with title case for titles, but titles shouldn't usually be titles but rather summaries and title case for summaries is just awkward

all caps is easily noticed by anyone, but less noticed things which are still frequent enough to get annoying should get filtered by a minimum positive total score

blog posts is a separate thing, I think they're exempt, even though I still don't like title case there personally. They're infrequent and I don't think many people read them anyways

I really don't like it when in a title, some clearly unique names get mixed in with generic words, all starting with capital letters and you don't know if they mean "The Glowing Magic Bullet" or just a "glowing Magic Bullet"

anyways, I usually edit them if I see them in hot questions list

For some reason, I always see the title case questions when I'm on my phone... and that's the most annoying way to edit them.

@bro SHOUTING FOR HELP, yes

Frequent pattern seen with help-vampires

@SonicWizard I never had doubts, and current rep is already out of scope for judging.

But i see patterns though ...

Anyone notice anything...weird about closed questions on Area 51 Discussions?

@Catija that would be nice! :)

@SonicWizard Specifically?

@SonicWizard probably SOCK of some very long time user... ;)

@SonicWizard yes. All closed by same person.

@Catija @ShadowWizard With the closure notice?

It's orange and off center?

I don't know what I'm guessing at.

It wasn't that way before

It was centered just like on other sites

@SmokeDetector fp-

> Poor Area 51 and chat (and SE.com to be honest). They never get the love

This applies to any bug report, I'm afraid.

So unless there is really major bug, e.g. error on all pages, it's useless to post Area 51 bug reports.

@ShadowWizard Area 51 Discussions is on a separate code base.

(above quote is by Mr. Friend, but that's the case for long years now.)

@SonicWizard it's still a weird hybrid.

And well fed!

Area 51 Discussions runs on the same code base as per-site metas, which is why they were able to implement the new close reasons there, while Area 51 is stuck with the old close reasons for example questions ("not constructive", "not a real question", etc.)

It takes some parts, e.g. profile fields, from the "new" codebase, but its design is still based on their old schema.

They even have the new profile page there, while Area 51 is stuck with the original profile page (lacking the last two revisions to the page).

@SonicWizard design is differernt, since it's also based on CSS which isn't really standard there.

e.g. even chat (whole SE) doesn't have some CSS file, as Shog said, so we're stuck with ugly top bar. (no padding)

@YvetteColomb Reminder: Confirm that FB contact please. My nice is interested about your work with the brumbies.

In my opinion, any bug is worth reporting. Even those relating to unmaintained features, or alexolut-style reports.

@SonicWizard even knowing for certain it will just sit there, and never be fixed?

@ShadowWizard I can earn reputation from the lone upvotes I receive over a long period of time, and it can be used as a duplicate target for other pedants...it's a long-term investment.

hmm... 8 minutes.... wonder if I'll get to next save point in time...

@YvetteColomb I sent you a "friend request" at FB (pretty sure that this was your account)

@YvetteColomb You have my confirmed eMail address though, and we could clean that mess up ;-)

There are dead FB accounts as for my step daughter ones. She denies to remove them though :-P

No, you totally should. :D It would be a fun anthropology project.

@YvetteColomb You know I have that special concern to get you in contact with my nice, if you don't mind at all. There might be other channels available.
