@damryfbfnetsi the answer is it's a testing site and we use it to test stuff. Which you already know, because you asked about it previously.

What it looks like at any given moment is going to depend on what we are/were testing. You shouldn't really worry about it.

@Shog9 So it doesn't foreshadow any change to SO's design? I also noticed that the skin chooser at the bottom is not working anymore. Why is that? (It used to work...)

And why is it being shot down by other users? I understand they're thinking it's not useful to them, but a potential thing happening there clearly foreshadows a change to the main site.

...which makes it clearly relevant for other users.

@Shog9 What does the SE team do to users who find out about the dev site and then continuously ask questions about it on a meta site?

@Shog9 You give them a bag of oranges?

Shog9

yyyesss... We "give" them a bag of oranges

@Shog9 Has the bug that allows multiple NAA flags on the same answer by the same user been fixed yet? I reported it on a meta site a while ago and the mod (erroneously) marked it [status-bydesign]

Has it???

@Shog9 You still here?

Shog9

@damryfbfnetsi I'll have to look - IIRC, that was an old, old bug that should've been fixed by other changes

damryfbfnetsi

@Shog9 I've confirmed that it still exists...can you check?

Does it show up as a custom flag, or a normal NAA flag?

After you answer that, could you tell me this?

@Shog9 Can you also explain to me why a decline message can sometimes end up on a disputed flag, as is in one of the screenshots linked above?

Shog9

@damryfbfnetsi Confirmed - bug still exists.

Something is actually parsing the text and giving it a type.

Probably meant to process legacy flags

damryfbfnetsi

@Shog9 Could you please remove the by design tag on the MSU bug report, then?

Q: Bug permits me to flag an answer as "not an answer" multiple times

I was previously using this bug to my advantage, but now I'm being honest and reporting it. Anyway, normally, when you flag an answer as "not an answer" using the standard option and you have already flagged it as such (and the previous flag has been dismissed with a status), you receive an er...
