I faced atleast two of the problems posted by niek_e at around the same time he posted them. (Submit button problem and no notification through mail). I never face the load problem since I am using...

Oh..sorry, was it ambiguous there, it might have been. Actually I was mentioning about the posts in the particular forum, like it used to be before.

Also Dani there's one more thing that I would like to mention, though the profile page does list the forums that the member has the most number of posts in, it does not mention the number of posts...

Thats called giving an insight into the stuff, which however useless it might feel to the OP or to beginners here, is of prime value. This insight is what would give the OP a much better...

I don't get you.

Also we cannot be enforcing grammar (because I feel it would be too complex a task) but we could to some degree enforce proper punctuation marks, and I guess that's what the OP...

Why do you think that a log/error message won't make it past the filter ? OR are you thinking that they are themselves written in so bad a langauge/ grammar ? Now C'mon

I don't like this solution for this. What if it's the other way round ? Suppose you did post a lot in the past but have been silent for a month or so, should your average still read how active you...

I am quite late to react on this but better late than never. Okay I must admit I haven't liked all of the changes that have been brought up in the recent days. Barring a few like the new homepage...

Dani, I guess s.o.s was pointing to the post by MidiMagic when he used '>', I don't think he was talking about '>' appearing in HTML code.

Because they are posting a question pretending it to be an "answer" to the initial question, in the first place. Secondly as I have mentioned they are already informed through the notice that the...

Did you have to say this ? It was disregarded anyways when for three years nobody gave a damn.

>And how often is that followed.
Yes I know it isn't followed often, more than often probably, but I have mentioned than what should happen to such post, in my post.



and if he is posting an...

As comatose mentions, new members posting a question on an old thread isn't expected to get an answer anyways, he is supposed to be smart enough to check the dates and start a new thread. Also from...

>one of the main points that I'e always stressed was that threads >are not just there to help the OP but to help many, many other >people as well, years into the future

I don't think I'll try to...

>I don't want to know if a thread has been active within the last 3 months, I want to know if the issue was resolved.

I agree with this statement as much as I can, but I was hoping for some...

>What makes you think the new member in question will bother to check that the thread was solved?

The fact that 'Solved' appears in bold, a bigger size font, and besides the thread title, where it...

So what in your opinion should be the right course of action for someone who a question similar to one asked in a thread (which was started years ago and has been dead since but was not marked...

Posting in the Java forum of the community I have seen one thing happen more often than not. I have seen posters post onto a thread that has been solved years ago, but just weren't marked as solved...

[I] [U]

Ohh c'mmon guyz (jbennet & happygeek) I am not saying that you chose Cohen because his recommendation came from a friend (jbennet) or jbennet recommended cohen because he is friend, I am just saying...

Yes, certainly, now that makes more sense, and is something that should well give us the reason for the current selection. But aargh... this should certaily not be the way it should be, because,...

I never said it that I wanted it that way. If you happen to read my post carefully, which I don't think you have done, I am just suggesting that the reply to my previous query, of the contribution,...

I do. And may be several others, who for reasons known to them did not speak out.

Earlier in this thread, in this (http://www.daniweb.com/forums/post807718-29.html) post, I had made public my curiosity for the criteria that holds good for a member to get the Member of the Month...

*deleted*

@iamthwee : We are surprised too, cannot make much of what goes on for selection of the MotM tag.

I haven't seen many people complaining on that, enough even to be called a minority, just the one. Also this to me doesn't appear to be an issue that the community should bother itself too much with,...

Okay, then will you be kind enough to remind us about that ?

@OP: Didn't you figure this out ?

If thats the case you can toggle plain text on it and check out, that feature is already there.

So then when the line runs longer than the maximum width allowed for the post screen, how do you plan to show that ?

If you use horizontal scroll bars for it, then lines can become too too long....

@Cohen : May we know the reason behind the two questions, in your previous posts ? I just wanted to figure out where we are going with this. Whats shortlisting Member of the Month or it's process got...

I absolutely agree here with ddanbe, there's no point in giving someone a good rep and then just waiting for a chance to bad rep him, just for the reason that you want to split your good rep points....

Yes, ddanbe comes up with a very good solution here. Yes one might think about a comment in either a good or bad way but there is a certain degree to the goodness of the comment and to the likeness...

What are the criteria that one could be selected for the title. (MotM) Is it that it is only the number of posts that count ? Posting in the Java community I have come across several members that...

I guess that is to control swarming the forum with posts.
