2012-01-18 00:01:05 -0500 commented question unable to configure askbot

I was going through the code in startup_procedures.py, I found instead of appending to errors list to add "Add STATIC_URL setting to your settings.py file. The setting must be a url at which static files are accessible.' it should be changed to AskbotConfigError so that it raises the error as soon as STATIC_URL is not found.

2011-12-19 06:26:34 -0500 asked a question Critic badge

While fiddling with downvote in my clone, I saw that if when i clicked the dislike(downvote) button I got a critic badge and though I clicked it again to cancel but the critic badge remained for the "First Downvote". That means even if someone by mistake clicks the downvote, he gets an "Critic badge"
