Police are looking for a very dangerous individual who shows up at crime scenes and kills random innocent bystanders. After months of investigation, they now believe the name of this individual is a Mr Rick O'Shea.

Can this be disabled for the "report post" feature? It's all too easy to see two posts in succession which both need code tags, and report them both within the time limit (and be told not to). Or perhaps I should just stop caring and whining about how many posts …

Well are you? So, irrespective of the type of rep you give, why is the word "lucky" in the popup? Surely receiving rep is far more deterministic than the pure blind chance it suggests. Perhaps when rep was blind and could be given anonymously, there was an element of chance. …

If you were given the job of creating a new "Rosetta Stone", which three languages would you choose, and what would you write on it?

I'm seeing some of these on occasion. "This forum requires that you wait 15 seconds between posts. Please try again in 14 seconds." But I always see my reply below it, but somehow the board though I tried to post it twice. Seen on both Vista and XP machines, both …

DW is very temperamental at the moment. I can read lots of threads, then it all lags up for about 5-10 minutes or so. Of course by then I've answered a few questions and then I get the "you must wait 30 seconds" between posts, which is a bummer since …

If I leave the language out of the code, then I can use colour just fine, like so [code]printf("%d. file has been created[COLOR="Red"]\r[/COLOR]",i); fflush(stdout);[/code] But if I add a language, say 'c', then it all goes pear shaped and the colour tags are no longer parsed. [code=c]printf("%d. file has been …

Starting from [URL="http://www.daniweb.com/forums/forum2.html"]here [/URL], I searched for "accident" and got this (saved) [URL="http://www.daniweb.com/forums/search867656.html"]list [/URL]. What is fairly obvious is that this [URL="http://www.daniweb.com/forums/thread93948.html"]thread[/URL] is not in that list. Why isn't the search finding this recently added thread containing the search term? What is also obvious is that the results are unsorted. …

I'd be demanding at least half a dozen priests or maybe a royal prince. But two goats, that's just an insult. Put it this way, if you asked about the maintenance schedule and they came back, …

I've noticed a few recent changes, which are of course somewhat annoying. 1. Sometime overnight, my option "Disable Clientside Scripting Enhancements" got reset, so this morning, everything is popping up like crazy. It's all right now, but I had to remember which box I ticked some time ago. 2. Double …

Some people just don't get it. The water mark and the sticky thread just isn't cutting it, something more drastic is needed, like say 3 strikes and you're banned for 24 hours. Then there are a persistent minority with 10+ posts who still don't get it. And why would they …

You can mark every single forum as read, at the [B]bottom [/B]of [url]http://www.daniweb.com/techtalkforums/index.php[/url] You can mark an individual forum as read, at the [B]top [/B]of [url]http://www.daniweb.com/techtalkforums/forum8.html[/url] But there doesn't seem to be a quick way of marking a forum group as read.

It's even smaller than an 80x25 terminal now! Just a mere postage stamp stuck in the bottom-left corner of the page, with acres of white space all around it.
