What is the idea based around questions for "evil" purposes, such as writing spambots and malware? Should the be answered or downvoted/flagged/closed?
(Also, pardon my noobishness, I'm not sure if there's already a rule for this or not. I don't have a high enough rep to close questions and the...
Speaking to afriend on the phone with his own developing medical question. I quote: "there's no such thing as a dermatological emergency. Nobody's acne gets that bad."
I'm continuing my collection of minor UI tirades. Today's rant: getting rid of "Parent".
Parent is the name for the core Q&A side of StackExchanges sites. (It's the alternate of "meta").
"Parent" suggests a superior.
"Parent" is a coding term about inheritance hierarchies.

@JeremyBanks Yeah, there's at least one guy on Christianity who hates my guts now because I didn't care to listen to him go on about how we should delete stuff on site on his say-so.
I am going through the flags and came across this question that I do not believe is a proper fit for SO, but I don't know if it would be on-topic for another site. Can someone smarter then me take a look at it?
I am a student of 3rd year engineering and only a novice in my programming skills. I need some help with my project.. I wish to develop a two player game to be played over the network (Intranet).

In the old reputation area when you got any recent rep the line was highlighted.
In the new version all i see is the text bolded (and nothing highlighted) and it is hard to tell the difference between the two:
Can you find the new one here?
Well its here:

Some users on the Stack Exchange cannot visit the site every day (sabbath observers and the like).
Can there be a badge that if a user visited X number of days in Y amount of time they would get the badge.
Kind of like the fanatic and the like, but does not have to be consecutive.

It certainly isn't impossible for you to access the site, it's just that you made a perfectly sane choice to not value a digital, valueless badge over maintaining your beliefs. Creating a new badge just to compensate for being rational is, well, a bit irrational. Admittedly I'd also agree with yoda's comment that the existing badges (fanatic and the like) are themselves also useless.
I found this very weird bug that I can't understand.
First of all inside this function I unpickle:
tableOrders = pickle.load(open("\\\\VIERNES7-3\Documentos c\sharedTableOrders.p","rb"))
If I do pprint(tableOrders) I get:

@Trufa: Anyway, the only bit I get hung up on is that you're doing this within the framework of some sort of GUI, and I don't really know how that fits in. That may or may not be relevant, but if (for example) event.widget.delete triggers an event that hits the same code again without reloading tableOrders, you're gonna get all kinds of funky results.
I just happened to be looking through the chatrooms on meta and I noticed this one:
http://chat.meta.stackoverflow.com/rooms/438/the-couch
It seems someone on the SE team has created a chat bot called Eliza
Is this some sort of ploy for SE to take over the world? Is this bot going to be the ne...
@Shog9 Before the question I commented out that part just in case, and the result still doesn't vary. I though about it good and I'm 99.99% sure this isn't gui related. I'm editing my question to reflect that specifically. Thanks for the advice!!
Got an email today that Movies.SE went into private beta... Asked a question, answered a question, gave a meta answer. I'm #1 on both main/meta. lol. This is likely the only time I will ever be #1 on anything StackExchange related.
