Also consider the possibility of Narue not finding the need to reply to threads which have been already replied by Tom with a more than satisfactory answer. :)

Narue would never start a thread in the Community Introductions. ;-)

You can of course pop in the Daniweb irc to get beaten down in real time... ;-)

Hmm...this is a problem indeed. I've found that checking the 'Remember Me' checkbox fixes the problem, at least on my side.

I can see both the links. Try clearing the cache using a force refresh.

Just report that post using the "Flag Bad Post" option and it should get appropriately handled.

Yes again. If you already have...

Yes, it does work. Plus, NoScript isn't exactly an adblocker. See attached.

Apart from the top portion of each post which houses the timestamp along with the vote-up links everything looks pretty decent. I still miss the plain old code tags which didn't force the numbering...

Yes, as long as it's not a space, it would work. For a more standardized naming approach, trying replacing the underscore with a hyphen.
