As [you can see here](https://www.daniweb.com/stats/members?country=&filter=&sort=timestamp), we get lots of new members signing up every day, but nearly no one posts. This has been true for decades and decades now. Anyone care to hypothesize why all these people sign up if not to contribute? #Lurker Meta DaniWeb daniweb-feedback | |

So I've seen two (possibly more) threads that end with the phrase "let's discuss" and an exclamation mark of over-enthusiasm (which is ironic, since it's low post count drive-by accounts posting this stuff). The preambles are well written, but meaningless pith. It's such an odd way of closing out a … Meta DaniWeb audio daniweb-feedback ui-ux | |
Following up on [this topic](https://www.daniweb.com/programming/software-development/threads/543151/show-computer-name-on-a-label) it seems as if Mr.M has been having trouble with Chrome crashing whenever he tries to type in our editor (which we just upgraded a week or two ago). > @Dani this happens when I type a longer message than it froze and crash.

This is definitely not a targeted attack at *anyone*. Please take it just as me having a bad day and venting. I'm kinda tired of people constantly telling me that I'm the reason that DaniWeb traffic has tanked over the years. And if only I had done this differently. Or … Meta DaniWeb daniweb-feedback | |
As you may recall, I've been working on cleaning up tags for quite some time now. A few years, actually. That project is nearing its end, and so I just want to remind everyone of our [tagging guidelines](https://www.daniweb.com/welcome/tagging) that have been in place for a couple of years now.

I modified our database library today to not connect to the database unless required. Previously, it automatically connected on every page. However, especially on pages that just pull from the cache, database connections aren’t necessary. Hopefully this should provide some incremental performance improvements. In the meantime, please keep an eye … Meta DaniWeb daniweb-announcement | |
Daniweb showed up as having a breached password in Avast, but if I try to log in it claims my computer's time is wrong so it is obviously thinking I have moved to a different timezone. How can I get in and fix it? I assure you I am not … Meta DaniWeb cybersecurity | |
If you love DaniWeb, or even if you don't, it would be much appreciated if you could [review us on Google](https://g.page/r/CSyiHReUFoTLEAI/review). Much thanks!! Meta DaniWeb daniweb-feedback google | |
I'm curious on people's thoughts of using DaniWeb's content to train an A.I. model, with all the questions that are marked as Solved. It can be an optional feature, like "Ask DaniWeb AI".

Hi Everyone - Just wanted to post here that Dani is MIA for a little bit, she's keeping an eye on DaniWeb via her phone, but is away from her computer. I'm sure she'll be back at it soon! Meta DaniWeb daniweb-announcement | |
DaniWeb will be switching to new servers later today, and there is planned downtime of a couple of hours. Unfortunately, I don't have an easy way of putting the site into read-only mode. What will most likely happen is that we might lose a few hours of database content. Meta DaniWeb | |
Sorry for the brief downtime today. I was refactoring some stuff on the web server when DaniWeb went down unexpectedly. I spent about 10-15 minutes going crazy trying to figure out why nothing was being written to the log file and what went wrong, when it turns out I forgot … Meta DaniWeb ide web-server | |

When I create a new topic and enter the mandatory tags, the tag dialog box sometimes overlays the "Continue to the Last Step" button leaving only the merest sliver of a button to click. Could the tag dialog be aligned left to avoid this? Meta DaniWeb | |
