@ShadowTheKidWizard It's a graduation election, so the current pro-tem mods need to run again to remain moderators of the site.

@Tinkeringbell Here's one from today, profile recreated 11 months later: i.stack.imgur.com/dtc1q.png - fortunately, still banned.

@V2Blast oh, first time I notice such thing. Well, in the past didn't pay much attention to elections on the various sites though. Thanks!

But if there won't be enough candidates, is there risk of the site closing?

@RyanM Ah, okay. Point made, it happens :P

looking at @Ryan's point

I was partly amused at the timing there...I didn't expect to find such a perfect example.

Hahaha fair point. Maybe it's a case of yellow cars/pink elephants? If you talked about it, and it's on your mind, you suddenly see a lot more of them? :D

lol

<sarcasm>Since someone came up with the "View split vote totals without 1000 rep" issue again, can I humbly suggest a blog post on this old koan?</sarcasm>

This was never meant to be a wall, just ease the burden on the servers a bit.

@ShadowTheKidWizard Seems like it was meant to be a wall imho, otherwise it would be available by default. The issue is not that the feature is "on-demand", that is perfectly fine. The problem is that the UI support is only available as a privilege but under the hood the api is free to use
