The reputation graph no longer shows up on my profile when I click on the reputation tab. Is it gone now (like the mail icon)? Or has it been moved somewhere else?
I do like the more detailed summary of reputation earned. Is it possible to still keep some form of graph for easy visualization of...
take out "to learn how to play, swipe through these slides" ... "you must repay your debts" -> "don't forget your obligation to the credit union for helping you get started" or something.
@drachenstern I will take into consideration, but that's what catches the eye. I can make the pagoda a bit bigger, make the sun hide behind a bit more, but it's what drives sales: The "packaging".
The point being that it matches the most of the items in the same drawer if it's not bright red and if there are more than red and white. If anything make it more like the karate kid bandana but smaller with the pagoda on the right
I'm going to assume that instead of being the 20k user you are on meta, that instead you're a 101rep noob who has no clue what the web is or how it works.
Like the fact that it spawned thousands of queries, was highly inefficient, was inducing painful server load for no real benefit, was horrendous to use, had thousands of complaints against it, needed a major refactor, and has almost been replaced?
So I suppose if it really bothers you, someone could hack you together a userscript (oh wait, that was already done) that adds that link with an icon for you (the sprite still exists)
@Moshe then the pawnshops (most of them) are aware it's stolen and they won't trade it. It's most likely sitting on somebody's living room table getting (been?) reformatted.
@LanceRoberts it actually made it to the top of that list? Last I saw it was about 300 votes away from the top.
@drachenstern The police report was filed yesterday. It was stolen friday night. I didn't know until Yesterday morning, it could have been traded by then.

Eeeek! What happened to my envelope?
@Moshe so if your district is anything like the previous two I've lived in, the police have a way to disseminate that information to pawn shops. They don't want to trade in stolen gear any more than the next business.
@Moshe umm, I think you misunderstand how reformatting a computer works. Has nothing to do with having those disks
@drachenstern I'm kinda doubtful of that, having gone to a pawn shop recently to advise someone to avoid buying a particular used iPhone. Which they did. Against my advice.
@Shog9 I'm not talking perfection, just functionality. It could actually be implemented in a number of different ways, I'm not hung up on a picture of an envelope. I'm hung up on the functionality that no longer exists.
@drachenstern It doesn't matter how great your code is if it doesn't have the functionality. You could have a great 'Hello World' program, but it won't do your word processing.
@LanceRoberts and the new code branch will have better functionality than the old one. Until the new one is here use the old one (via userscript). What is the problem?
@drachenstern Sounds like joelonsoftware.com/articles/fog0000000069.html - look, no proof anywhere that they've done this (rewrite, new branch, etc.) - they might just be pulling old code around
@YiJiang No, they've outlined many ways that the code is poorly written and in need of a serious overhaul. This is not being done because somebody wanted to do something different, they really have some performance problems there that they want to resolve.
IOW: they have objective milestones and reasons for a rewrite.
@drachenstern But is there an immediate need to pull the old code? Is it that bad that it need to be nuked immediately? Surely you'd want to reach feature parity before pulling the old version?
Buried deep in the now deleted Eeeek post, I had a well-hidden feature-request. Grace Note encouraged me to make it a real feature-request, so here it is. The new drop-down menu is nice, but some crucial functionality of the envelope is missing:
I'd like those numbers behind "revisions" and "fav...
@YiJiang a) yes. b) they didn't pull it, they asked people to stop using it because it is that bad but they didn't take it away, they just removed the link. c) I would've probably put a little more feature work into the new page before releasing it, but I think they were pretty close.
@Shog9 I would love to know since I'm a relative newb
I know the first thing I do when I sign-on, is if I see a rep change or a lighted envelope, I click on the envelope and catch up all at once. No trying to figure out what I'd seen before. It was clear and concise even if it had the 'phantom favorite edit' bug.
@Moshe finding it by everyone helping. It's either going to surface easily (already should've happened) or it won't ever reasonably surface.
Unless OSX has some sort of feature I'm not aware of where if you ping a webaddress the SNMP enabled router at that address causes all the OSX devices to respond with their SN to the requestor.
Prior to the envelope, there was a "responses" tab on each user profile. It listed answers posted to your questions, and comments posted to your posts.

@Lance: you fret about not being able to pop onto the recent page and immediately see what you missed... At one time, I didn't even need to visit the site!
That's a feature that disappeared and never came back.
@YiJiang Probably. I mean, none of the data on the original "responses" page was private, but the rep data on the new /recent page was, so it was probably easier just to leave it. AFAIK, moderators could originally view your /recent page, but that was removed (along with the votes tab)
Back in this long, long ago time, before comment @notifications, googling your name was actually a decent way to find conversations you'd forgotten about: they'd show up in other users' "responses" pages.
@YiJiang they're not though. And no, I don't think they were simultaneous, but I don't recall for sure.
I have a flag weight of 130 and haven't used any today but my inform moderator tags shows "0":
Noted in the meta chat Tavern and discussed. Mods have the ability.
C# DateTime myTime = DateTime.Now; string systemDependentFormat = myTime.ToShortDateString(); string formatted = myTime.ToString("G"); where G is a predefined string in the class, and ToShortDateString uses the settings of the OS and doesn't ask me, but no assumptions are made either, it's completely localized.
@MichaelMrozek Note that "a boy" and "a girl" are not options there.
@mmyers A pregnant acquaintance of mine told me yesterday that she filled out a bracket for her son "to get him on the right foot even before he's born." I asked if he disagreed with any of her picks; apparently he did.
9 minutes to voluntary drug & alcohol policy training
(no, I don't know if that means the training is voluntary, the policy is voluntary, or the drugs are voluntary. The meeting request was bereft of detail. My curiosity is aroused.)
