And yes too many replies are called "general" and awarded debator points there,
Yeah it should be included in Authority points.

**How can clarifying a question be an Authority Point? Answering it, yes, but to inform that an action has been taken is participation.

yes. This has worked before. And I don't really agree, if a comment-like reply in a forum yields debator or authority points, why would it yield points in a different category for Q&A? Look at the different ways to get participant points, posting a comment simply does not fit in that list. :)

What else could comments be? As Dave pointed out, a comment on an answer is not necessarily a contribution that adds to the answer, nor is it (always) a debate, a question, or (necessarily) organisation.

Only in technical forums DD. Also I have seen many answers/links in general message, that's why.

Thanks Chris, that was what I was, very poorly, attempting to point out. (I presume the recount will be complete by the time I crawl my carcass into work in about 5 hours time :) )

Unfortunately I second guessed myself after Luc's comment and restarted the rep recalc. It will be done in around 13 hrs. Sorry - I should have just the final bit continue on and it would have been finished soon.

The "comment" may or may not have technical merit. If it has (e.g. "I would have used an extension method here"), it would yield Authority in a forum; and if it hasn't (e.g. "I like the way you explained that"), it would yield Debator in a forum (even when no debate is taking place). I fail to see why that would be any different in Q&A. :)

As I said, it is not a debate, it is an improvement nut not an answer. So it cannot be Debator Points, and it cannot be Authority Points. But the participation is still there.

posting "please clarify" or "good answer" in a programming forum yields debator points (assuming message type "general"). posting "Elvis has died" or a CCC clue in the Lounge yields debator points. :|
