Urgent Evoke

A crash course in changing the world.

1. Two(or maybe more) of my posts show I have 1 power vote, but actually I have more than that. I wonder if more people have the same problem.[Solved]

Quoting Nathaniel:
"I have fixed Samiran Roy's votes. There were only the two he identified where the votes on the evidence page were out of sync with profile page.
There a few evidence items that have a similar issue. There are all old items that arose from an earlier bug, now fixed, where the user player was being identified as undefined. This is also the cause of the Neil Spurgeon issue -- that name is associated with the 'undefined' user. I will work on assigning the votes, assigned to the 'undefined' player, to the correct players."


2.Comments, they sometimes disappear.[Made clear by Turil]


3.Once, evoke turned into this:[Explained by Nathaniel]


4.Julio has another Agent's pictures on his blog,

These are the pictures

Many agents have links to random posts of others in their blog.

Switch between Rich text and HTML while using JavaScript, and the code duplicates itself.

6.Random 'Power vote this evidence' link appears in my posts:

7. Leadercloud bugs

Quoting Sarah:
"Can you comment on Neil Spurgeon Mr. Fruchter?
all you have to do is put your mouse pointer on his name on the leadercloud:
it will say "undefined" and you can see there 267 KS points.
Now if you go to the actual Neil here:
http://www.urgentevoke.com/profile/NeilSpurgeon
he has 34 KS points.
This "undefined" link has been there for weeks
with the name changing overtime.
Should we think that is a glitch?"

Quoting Sarah again:
"In this picture you can see the link having my name, dated 04/19
You can tell its not me because I don't have those KS points even now,
and I don't have another account."

Quoting Nathaniel:
"This is because—surprise surprise—Ning had some problems. The Ning ID is scraped from the page (because of Ning's utter lack of APIs). This has sometimes led to an empty scrape due to Ning's inconsistent source and then the database is updated as "undefined". It shouldn't happen any more. Now, let's get back to focusing on everything left to do in the week or so that we have here on EVOKE."

Sarah:
"Update: now the Neil Spurgeon phantom link, instead of 267KS has 177,
which makes it as inconsistent and shady an issue as it ever was,
we are told that its because he has two accounts,
but if you look for them you will see that there is only one:
http://www.urgentevoke.com/profile/NeilSpurgeon

Is there ANYTHING in Evoke that is not a Ning problem?
After all, the point system doesn't run on Ning,
but it doesn't matter cause most people would believe
anything you say if you include the words "bug"
and "system".



Of course there is one more problem,

There is no spacing difference, If your name is X Y your address is /XY

and an undefined DB link cannot have any points by definition.

Oh yeah I forgot about that..
Comment by Nathaniel Fruchter on May 4, 2010 at 12:52am
The issue seems to be a technical one. There are apparently two entries for Neil; he seems to have signed up twice. If he contacts us about the discrepancy, we should be able to do an account merge if he requests it.

Ning and our points system are separate. There are two entries in our points system, one in Ning, making it undefined. How that happened? I'm not sure and I doubt it's possible to find out exactly how that duplication happened. A possible method is that Neil created an account, got locked out by the Ning spam ban epidemic, created a second account, and continued to use that.

And why was that "undefined" link changing names overtime, with the same points and position?
I remember it used to have my name on it a while back.
does the secondary Neil account has a feature that changes the name on the leadercloud
from Sarah O'Connor to Neil Spurgeon?
