:: I wrote the original C++ code, and someone that didn't log in or sign edited it. Anyway, if there's a reason for it, I can put the const's back. [[User:MagiMaster|MagiMaster]] 19:25, 31 May 2011 (UTC)
::: I didn't make the anon edits. I'm just pointing out the distinction between 'unnecessary' and 'pointless'. I also felt a need to step in, because I haven't seen edit wars on RC, and it felt like we might be getting close to such over stylistic issues. So I simply stated my opinion and left it at that; I don't need to be a direct party to an edit war, and such things have traditionally been resolved on RC by talking over the pros and cons. C++ is going to be a tricky language for me to not interfere with, because it's my bread and butter... --[[User:Short Circuit|Michael Mol]] 20:11, 31 May 2011 (UTC)
 
::::Maybe if people tried not to do both 'stylistic' changes and fix coding errors in the one edit, then you could concentrate on arguing the merits of stylistic changes within their given context. SOmeone may be able to argue that for the given program, its's not gonna make much difference. On the problem of people not having an account before editing, then maybe a note asking them politely to properly join in the the discussion by giving you a name to converse with might be all it takes?
