First of all, i want to report Heap_OverFloww who is violating a rule that says you can't have a misleading handle. This user is impersonating Heap_OverFlow and trying to frame him.
My question is, how do i report situations like this and to who? I tried searching for it, but failed to find anything. I don't think making a blog for each particular case is a great idea. Would like to hear your opinions on it and maybe get official answer!
UPD: AkiLotus shared information about the reporting system. Here is an official blog about it. The reporting is available only for Div 1.
UPD 2: there is also Heap_OverFlow2, which i don't know what to feel about.
CF already takes action against him, they deleted his all toxic comments . I think he is in read only mode now.
Oh, nice! Thanks for the information
I bet such action is bannable. I heard reporting is feasible for Candidate Masters and above, so to report you need be a CM at least. Otherwise, it'd be with blogs as you did.
i asked Kuroni about reporting, he said that he doesnt know anything about it. Maybe he does have access to it and doesnt know, or the information about reporting was a lie
UPD: the hell, why are you downvoting? I literally said "maybe he does have access to it and doesn't know", taking in both of the possibilities. There is no misinformation from me in the slightest
Not sure how the banning works, but reports do exist for CM+, yes. After downvoting a content you, if eligible, would have a yellow triangle button to the right of the downvote. Click it and you would see a number of options for reporting, i.e. in which way did the content you want to report violate the standards.
Thanks a lot, i will add that to the post
Oh yeah, I almost forgot. Mike had a blog when this feature came out initially actually. You could refer to it in the post as well.
Turned out, it wasn't a lie then per AkiLotus
Nothing was a lie my friend. Except the cake.
Yes? and now what? is a reason a reason to downvote? i said that info about reporting might be a lie, MIGHT, it turned out its not. So? Do you see a reason to downvote? Because i clearly don't. Should i be sorry that i cant time travel?
The community is going crazy with the anonymity.
Another thing, people are downvoting another comment of mine saying "Thanks a lot, i will add that to the post", it has an intent to notify AkiLotus that their words will be used in the blog. The reason behind adding this to the blog is to add an answer to the question the blog asks, so people don't have to read comments to find out the answer. Nothing wrong here yet it started getting downvotes. The only reason the second comment is getting downvotes is because the first is downvoted, which is really stupid.
No, I even up voted you. Codeforces is somewhat a strange place bro :-D
After your comment appeared, people started downvoting mine even more, so that's why i replied to you.
I wish i could control myself and not write blogs nor comments or have an option to switch into read-only mode, really.
Is there a browser extension to remove display of contribution and comment ratings? I would love that. Also might as well write my own, if there is none
Rather you'd better get yourself accustomed with the downvotes instead of going mad with it, my friend.
Don't worry, that would take time. I also learnt it the hard way before.
Things don't always go our ways, and even if deities aren't generally accepted/respected by everyone, why would we as singular individual bother? Just keep up your common sense and you'd be good.
Yes it is. I upvote you but steel it's showing me nothing -_-
Your upvote doesn't show up because of these changes of contribution and rating calculation. If a comment has rating from [-5, -1], it will show up as 0. That's also why you will never see a comment with less than 5 downvotes.
You can see the actual rating of a comment using the API though
Bro knowing the rules well
Hello there. Are you one of heap's infinite alts? Or rather fan club ?
He is both my alt and not my alt at the same time so 50, 50.
Guys who know probability will probably know.
For reference, meow
Schrödinger's alt
i dont post weird posts in hindi or smth, get upvoted suspicially quickly about 10 times and then delete the post in a few minutes so that my contribution stays.
would like to know about those posts though, Heap_OverFlow
Upd: nice, downvoted and i dont get to hear a single counter-argument, only anger. dont you love anonymity?
Upd 2: The last update has a clear intent to hear a counter-argument to my position, to make someone tell my why am i wrong. Three people read the post with the update, said nothing and left a down-vote. If you think its just funny, ok. If you are serious, im waiting for your reply.
I don't know why heap didn't reply, but since I'm online will try say smth reasonable.
What kind of posts do you mean? Like I don't find smth like what you mention but I remember for example, he had post like this comment. Maybe, deleted the blog due to getting weird downvotes or smth. That's an event where it seems he posted then deleted, it's obvious from the comment.
Add Heap_OverFlow2 to the blog as impersonating too.
I don't have a screenshot, but i have the text of the blog and it happened only once. When i was checking recent actions, i saw Heap, clicked on the post, it was post on Arabic that i couldn't understand, it had 10 upvotes i think. I used a translator and when i reloaded the page, the blog was gone.
ادخلوا عليهم الباب فإذا دخلتموه فإنكم غالبون وعلى الله فتوكلوا إن كنتم مؤمنين
I don't see how 10 people on CF found that post useful.
Heap_OverFloww is now banned!
Thanks for your support :D
Still waiting for yours ban too :)
I pray for the forgiveness of the departed souls of his fake accounts. RIP Crap_OverFlow.
