Votes to reclassify question as PRO/non-PRO:

Non-PRO (1): Erzsébet Czopyk

When entering new questions, KudoZ askers are given an opportunity* to classify the difficulty of their questions as 'easy' or 'pro'. If you feel a question marked 'easy' should actually be marked 'pro', and if you have earned more than 20 KudoZ points, you can click the "Vote PRO" button to recommend that change.

How to tell the difference between "easy" and "pro" questions:

An easy question is one that any bilingual person would be able to answer correctly. (Or in the case of monolingual questions, an easy question is one that any native speaker of the language would be able to answer correctly.)

A pro question is anything else... in other words, any question that requires knowledge or skills that are specialized (even slightly).

Another way to think of the difficulty levels is this: an easy question is one that deals with everyday conversation. A pro question is anything else.

When deciding between easy and pro, err on the side of pro. Most questions will be pro.

* Note: non-member askers are not given the option of entering 'pro' questions; the only way for their questions to be classified as 'pro' is for a ProZ.com member or members to re-classify it.

juvera Hello, thanks I seem to have find the way, koszonom, anyway. But I agree with what you said.
juvera Dec 16, 2009:
Nem, az egész túl van bonyolítva. Én ritkán teszek fel kérdéseket, mert helyi és korbeli előnyöm van :-) Ezért nem tudok részletesen válaszolni, de úgy tudom, hogy ha "pro"-t választasz, akkor az mindig ponttal jár. A "not for point question"-re rá kell katttintani, ha olyat akarsz, és a "non-pro" is pont nélküli, mert az azt jelenti, hogy nagyon könnyű kérdés. Ami vicc, mert ha valaki kérdést tesz fel, akkor nem feltétlenül tudja, hogy az más szerint könnyű vagy sem.

To juvera: Most tuti hulyenek nezel majd, de nem, nem jottem ra, h mit tettem azert, h pontokkal jarjon/nem. En sehol sem lattam azt kiirva, h ha ezt/vagy azt bejelolom akkor masok pontokat kapnak. Es meg most sem tudom, hogy kell 'grade the answers' Lehet, h csak en vagyok ilyen 'simple'?
juvera Dec 14, 2009:
Azt hiszem, már rájöttél, az utóbbi kérdéseid már pontokkal járnak. Végeredményben Rád van bízva; a "pro" kérdésekre lehet pontot adni, de ez nem a kérdező státuszára vonatkozik, hanem a kérdés (feltételezett) nehézségére.

unconscionability -> kirívó/súlyos méltánytalanság ...

It would have been easier to answer the question if we had been given the context or the type of task in which the term came up.
juvera Dec 10, 2009:
Dear klarig Just because the question is from a homework or test, it doesn't have to be "not for points". Also, a total beginner could ask a question which may fox seasoned professionals, and in that case it certainly wouldn't be fair to deny the points.
But if you can find the word in a dictionary and it makes sense in the context, then it could be a "not for points" question, because all you had to do is to open the dictionary in the right place.
Actually, both answers given so far are right, it can mean amorality, criminality, corruption, excess, extravagance, unjustifiability, unreasonability, stb.

eltúlzottság, túl nagy mennyiség

I found "unconscionable" in the Macmillan dictionary:
more than a reasonable or acceptable level or amount
Synonyms or related words: too, exceptional, surplus, more, beyond, etc.
From this I guess the noun formed from it is "unconscionability", which I think means "eltúlzottság" or "túl nagy mennyiség".
