Stack Overflow doesn't notify a user when editing privileges are lost
I still think the site should be presenting more information about your success/failure rate and explaining why it may be low.

@Servy I definitely didn't see that, likely because I made three bad edits in rapid succession.

@Servy No idea, I got privs back yesterday.

@Servy I did have suggestions to make, but I don't think I clicked the button because it was greyed out.

@Servy Interesting. I looked at it from the tack of, "uhhh, is Stack Overflow broken for everyone or just me?", because the edit button didn't have any additional info on it like it does when the edit queue is full, it was just disabled with zero info about why.

I may have, or may not have, but it was probably four years ago that I earned it? Yes, I think most folks only read the docs after they hit a wall, and that mostly jives with the site behaviour I saw as a new user's patroller on Wikipedia a couple years back.

Editing question titles
Agreed, and that all makes sense. (I want to state one thing, though: right now, I'm more than a bit frustrated that it's a full week and not a day or two.)
