 | It's very possible that it's a real person who is creating the accounts, and then letting the bots loose posting with them. You should definitely enable email confirmation so members need to verify their emails before they can post. You can periodically prune emails waiting for verification to keep your …  |
| | I believe it depends upon the printing method that will be used. IE a large printing press for full color magazines might be different than what's required for two-tone business cards. I would ask your printer what works best for them. |
 | Are you referring to the things like 'Posting Whiz in Training' and 'Practically a Posting Shark'? These titles have nothing at all to do with reputation and they don't fly over anything, either. They are simply a member's user title which is set exclusively based on how many posts they … |

 | nightwishmaster is helping me to strengthen the community aspects of the site, which I've been trying to work on improving lately.  |
| | This behaviour was never on who's online. The only change made to the Who's Online page from the vBulletin default is the ability to see forum-specific who's online lists. |

| | Re: Flash IRC Client The particular IRC client we're using right now unfortunately cannot be resized. |
 | I think it depends upon the context, as well. If a new member right off starts bashing other members - or worse yet, a moderator - they're instantly banned. If it's a frequent, regular member who has a public or private disagreement with a moderator, in most cases I'll leave … |
| | Re: Server question No site specific talk in this forum, so if this thread goes down that route, I'm going to move it to our Web Hosting Buy and Sell Marketplace. Are you sure that their hosting company is better than yours, and it isn't jut that they have faster / more servers? |
 | I think I know what's happening. The ads run in IFRAMEs so that they don't slow down the pages as much. It's very possible the IFRAME windows have your browser's focus instead of the actual webpage. Try clicking on a blank area of the website to give it focus before … |
| | Go into your control panel and in Edit Options there's an option to "disable tooltips". |
 | To be honest I think the email you received is a phishing email (spam). 301 redirects are perfectly safe and won't get you banned. Google is not going to randomly send an email out to sites that are banned unless it's a reply to a query you emailed them. Also, …  |
| | Backlinks are links on other websites that link to your website - the more backlinks you have, and the higher the quality the sites that link to you, the more Google PageRank your site has. Backlinks are achieved in one of two ways: Either by paying for them or naturally. … |
| | I have a question for you. Is there a reason that you are using store.xyz.com as opposed to [URL="http://www.xyz.com/store/"]www.xyz.com/store/[/URL] ?  |
| | They've been. :) Thank you for the heads up. Some of the stickies no longer applied such as the blogging competition (already won) or the NY get together that was semi-planned for 2 years ago and never happened. |
 | [quote=Hamrick;425704]How do you rotate a point? A point is a point, there's no kind of transformation you can do until you have more than one. :D[/quote] I haven't taken a math class in many, many years, but from what I can recall, you rotate a point by drawing a vector … |
 | For those of you not aware, the Digg Bot is an actual legal DaniWeb bot. The idea is to syndicate the latest related front-page articles on Digg and encourage DaniWeb's community to comment on them. I've noticed that the lounge forums tend to engage in very interesting discussions but often …  |
 | Re: 3rd Try Hi Rick. Welcome to DaniWeb. I'm a tad confused what you're talking about but welcome and good luck with login problems. |
| | Have you tried swapping batteries? Have you tried pressing the lil button on the bottom of the mouse to reestablish a connection with the base (or whatever the transceiver thingie is called). |
 | Re: Recent changes Hi, [B]1.[/B] If you remember, the option to disable the various JavaScript style elements was temporarily added to help debug all of the extremely slow page rendering and JavaScript timeouts that were being spit out when I updated the look of DaniWeb a couple of months ago. Narue and others …  |
| | Your rep increases when people give you positive rep and your rep decreases when people give you negative rep. |
 | I don't believe you need to specify a size with blobs. |
| | Can you please try cleaning out your PM inbox by clicking on the 'empty folder' link?  |
| | XHIBIT, I agree with most of what you've said except for denying access to non-registered members. What incentive is there to sign up if you don't know what types of discussions there are? The curiosity factor might get you more members registering than otherwise would, but I don't think you'll …  |
 | Providing advertising space does not increase visitor traffic. However, it does drastically affect your online presence. Firstly, of course it allows you to make money from your visitors. A good beginning program to do is [url="http://www.google.com/adsense/"]www.google.com/adsense/[/url] Banner advertising can sometimes be annoying to many visitors, however. Opening up your site … |
 | Re: unread pm There's another thread that was started with someone else experiencing the exact same problem. I will look into it. |
| | Just last night we migrated to all brand new servers. We're currently having some issues which affect uploading and storing files in the filesystem (such as attachments, custom avatars, etc), since we now have two web servers on a load balancer, and need to figure out a way to make … |
| | Just out of curiosity ... what is YOUR singlemost favorite DaniWeb feature? It can be anything no matter how big or small. For me it's the look of the category portal pages and the members who share your interests within a member profile. |
| | Originally there was no limit. It was added out of necessity due to much abuse which landed us in many a difficult situation. I can only suggest you put your long posts together in Notepad or such before publishing them. |

| | My system has eight gigs of ram and I'm using Vista 64bit and am seeing like 50% ram usage with just Firefox open. |
| | Re: Google problem I believe that Webmaster Tools only reports the last date your HOMEPAGE was crawled.  |

| | Gah! I'll look into it this week (either Wed or Thurs). |
| | [quote=bappa_ayan;421177]Can Any Body Offer Me A Job? It Is Very Urgent. Any Salary [/quote] What are your skills? |
 | I'm confused by what you mean. Do you mean how did I come up with the idea of starting DaniWeb? If so ... DaniWeb started as a hobby project because I enjoyed browsing other computer-related forums and learning from them. |
 | |
| | Are you using a router to share the internet connection, or the microsoft internet sharing thingie? (cable modem directly plugged into one of the machines)? It might be a problem with the cable modem or your cable company, as a last resort. Sometimes this happens on my computer ... despite … |
| | Hi Alan! Welcome to DaniWeb. I wish your wife a speedy recovery. IRC stands for 'Internet Relay Chat'. It's a very old live chat protocol, relatively speaking of course, having been around since the 1980s. However, you don't need to know all of that to enjoy it. Just visit our … |
| | I've noticed site: being updated but the toolbar is stagnant for me. |

| | Re: Test Forum It looks like a forum filled with complete jibberish. (IMO almost embarassing for Opera) I'm confused by the point of it. Why entice new members to get accustomed to our system by submitting complete jibberish when they're already learning how to use DaniWeb by formulating interesting threads in the Community … |
 | I am not debugging anything like that this week because we've been experiencing a DoS attack all week long in addition to having to reboot the MySQL server a couple of times for various reasons. If the problem still exists after all of this is taken care of, I'll look … |
| | The table in the database which stores which of the latest threads have been read has recently been changed to a HEAP memory structure, which means that it's now completely stored in RAM. This was done because, as you can imagine, the table gets written to every time a member … |
The End.
