@ArcticChar I provided the proof in the flag description, but the problem is one from the entrance exam to MIT PRIMES - which is due on November 30th. It is Problem G1 from here: math.mit.edu/research/highschool/primes/materials/2022/…
Ah, never mind, I see that it has been taken down. Thanks!
@TheSimpliFire: I noticed that the user relevant to my last flag has been suspended, but my flag itself is still "pending". Is there a reason? Thank you.
@hyper-neutrino It was just one day. Maybe I'll suggest to CMs to tell users 25 hours, so they can ensure that after a one day suspension, they'll have a whole hour to handle things. :-) But thanks for the info.
@hyper-neutrino I'm guessing I'll be heavily downvoted, because regular users have likely tired of such request. I did click "contact us", "other", with a request to restore my rep. But it certainly wouldn't hurt for me to search for dupes, in case there are suggestions.
@amWhy well, it'll get restored sooner or later, you just need to wait for the system to process it. someone suggested that visiting the /reputation page might trigger a recalculation, but that's just a guess
Yikes, I forgot to submit my "contact us" alert. :( I did try refreshing the rep tab. I'll wait, but I'm only free for the next 18 minutes, now, and then have to teach.
Randomly browsing rooms and came across this convo, which I think I may be able to be (a little bit) helpful with. After a suspension, your profile's flagged for a rep recalc, which apparently takes about one hour after the suspension is lifted.
If it takes longer than that hour, I'd consider a contact us message. Before then, patience is a virtue!
@Spevacus Thanks! I don't think I ever remember it taking that long. That means my suspension is effectively going to be at least 28 hour suspension, given I'll not be able to participate on site, until then. I'll consider suggesting on meta.se that they add an hour when announcing to users when they are are no longer suspended. I was counting on forty five minutes on site, before teaching.
My students (this class virtual), are working on a short quiz. Thank you @hyperlink and @Spevacus for listening and responding with helpful suggestions, and moral support. I'm not used to that on this site. In any case, my rep was restored as my effective suspension entered its 26th hour, on a one day suspension. Seriously, I appreciate your responding to me!
@Mast How would I have known that? As I said, if "they were aware of it as you claim, why didn't they acknowledge my question? Instead of belittling a user like you did here, think, and stop prior to sarcasm.
I am quite heartened by the support from @hyper-neutrino, and @Spevacus!
@amWhy I'm not belittling anyone and I'm getting tired of you feeling attacked every time someone says something you disagree with. You have simply no idea how patient the Math moderators have been and how much they've defended you over the years. They deserve more credit than you give them.
Only because you misrepresented what transpired. I give credit where credit is due. It's all good! ;D @Spevacus or @hyper-neutrino, do you know if it typically takes longer for one's rep to be restored, on a site's meta site, though it's been restored on the main site already?
@amWhy From my experience, meta rep does tend to lag behind main site rep behind when significant changes happen, such as bounties (both given and received). Not sure if there's an exact reason beyond just "blame caching" ¯\_(ツ)_/¯
@Spevacus While this report focuses on the number listed in "Your communities" I have seen this reflected in actual reputation values. I'd personally give it a full 24 hours before becoming too concerned, unless it's preventing you from participating at all on meta (It shouldn't, though)
