my ~~least~~ ~~most~~ least favorite part so far:

is that chat notifications ~~still work as before~~ don't work for the new top bar

:( :) :'(

Dunno how to break this to you but it's only fair to tell you that @Chris has decided to step down as a moderator and also requested his account be deleted. He didn't give any specific reason short of mentioning lack of time and assured that he's OK and it was definitely not something anyone here did. I didn't wanna dig into it, since it's a volunteering position and I can appreciate that it can take a lot of time off someone's hands to manage things around here.

Now, when his account will be deleted, most of you will lose some reputation here, but he is a fair voter and that loss should be distributed equally among us all. I hope some of you don't temporarily lose any privileges but you should be able to regain that fast enough.

I'm not sure if he'll post something in our meta or not, so I'm forwarding his best wishes and that it was his pleasure. I'm sure he doesn't mind me saying this here too.

JohnB

Aw, sorry to hear that

TildalWave

Yup me too

how's the mod load? CMs gonna be looking for a replacement?

I'd like to nominate Community...I see that user EVERYWHERE

so helpful

TildalWave

Hehe yes, the Community is almost great. Still not serving beer, but other than that I enjoy teasing it by marking auto-flags as unhelpful, it's a happy relationship :)

JohnB

haha, I do that too

TildalWave

@JohnB Well it's reasonable, not too bad... but that depends on how much you wanna be here vs how much you can be here. We should be fine, but another hand would be even better, it's still a lot of nappy changing and teaching it to walk and all that.

JohnB

well, definitely more than enough worthwhile candidates on SEx.SE to pick from for sure

TildalWave

@JohnB they do? ping me... I wanna test how it looks like if I ignore you :)

JohnB

@TildalWave apparently it takes 15-20 minutes for chat notifications to show in the top bar

They weren't showing up immediately, and...I panicked! meta.stackoverflow.com/questions/210072/…

:P

TildalWave

@JohnB I'll just ignore you for longer then shall I? :D

JohnB

but I require constant attention :(

TildalWave

BTW have you seen this list of recent complaints on mSO re top bar? meta.stackoverflow.com/questions/tagged/…

JohnB

I scrolled through it to try and find my complaint

TildalWave

You know what's the problem with testing it first on mSO?

JohnB

04:06

what is it

TildalWave

mSO doesn't have its own meta ... so now I haven't a clue how to get back to the main site if I find myself on meta and I didn't open it in a new tab

OK I found two ways, but they're not really intuitive

JohnB

yeah, you gotta click the SE logo now to switch

I agree, not intuitive

TildalWave

click on SE logo and navigate from there, or click on your profile and then on "main profile"

JohnB

you can also get to meta by clicking Help

but you can't get back to main that way

TildalWave

I would have no problems comparing this top bar non-intuitivity with some inappropriate analogy, to be honest :)

I love my new top bar whoooohoooo.......

@Every good morning ;-)

@Tildal turns out it is a bug: meta.stackoverflow.com/q/210072/216955

TildalWave

06:28

@JohnB Yeah I just saw your ping on SE but not on SEx.SE, Astro.SE or Sec.SE and it didn't just appear there for sure

and I did reload pages BTW

I'll just use SE pages more and since there's no top bar SuperCollider no more, it's always there

stackexchange.com/questions

JohnB

@TildalWave they moved it, right column of each site page

on the bottom

"Hot Network Questions"

@JohnB I know but it's only like 10 of them

12

There's more bugs obviously, I just say again rep change (green box) and guess what, there wasn't any rep change. It showed about +60 and my daily rep change (that I cleared the notification before) is currently -1 LOL

anyway, gtg ... have fun ;)
