Is it possible to get the chat badges (talkative and outspoken) on meta.J.SE? If chat is site independent, how are the badges different for each site? Can meta.J.SE have its own chat rooms or are they by default categorized under the parent site?
I'm trying to remember the name of a sefer that I learnt with someone a couple of times a while ago. It was written by a chasidic rebbe, but isn't just popular amongst chasidim. We were learning a chapter about the importance of middot. The rebbe wrote other sefarim with the same name that were a...
@DanODay It isn't so active here most of the time. But I highly recommend our weekly parshat hashavua chat! See here meta.judaism.stackexchange.com/q/520/759 for details.
There is a famous Hasidic rabbi who has no facial hair, and I seem to recall that there is a famous story as to why. But I can remember neither which rabbi (or of which sect), nor the story. I do not even know if he is/was "the" Rebbe of his sect. Can someone please post information?
I cannot pr...
The story goes something like ...
A few days after his wedding, a man disappeared without a trace. Many years later, a mysterious man showed up back in town, claiming to be him. He looked different, but he revealed to "his" wife all sorts of private details that presumably only her husband ...
I don't really like the font in which Hebrew is displayed on our site. Can I petition for it to be changed? Or is there some way to change it for me only on my browser?
@RebeccaChernoff i can do that. you want to undelete then? it's just on meta.so, when we have a feedback post like this, the devs typically delete resolved issues
I meant putting a comment on the question "as issues are resolved, the answer will be deleted to keep this page clean with the outstanding issues", that way anyone who happens to not see your chat message can still have a clue
@HodofHod Meh, don't see that. By keeping around old stuff, you increase the noise in a signal to noise ratio. Keep the site clean. What value do these posts have in a month? In a year? Etc. If you want to see the historical record, you earn the rep to see deleted stuff.
@RebeccaChernoff hmm, I realize my request isn't very clear on one of its main reasons for existence
I think that accepted or implemented posts should be either hidden or collapsed by default, so that it's there for historical purposes (I find historical posts on meta.SO very enlightening) but not obtrusive
@RebeccaChernoff as it is now, any user with the rep to see deleted things does see all that noise.

What do the terms קדוש (Kadosh), קדושים תהיו (Sefer Vayiqra 19:2), קדושה, and קדיש really mean?

Can we choose a lighter shade of red (or another color in general) for char responses:
That red seems too bright against the light background.
