search 7-Mar-02 1:22 7-Mar-02 1:22  now i again found people discussing replyes to my programming question and i not know about it - receiving direct replyes only so i wanted to search suggestion forums because i think i already (strongly) suggested possibility to get - all-replyes into "my thread" - check any thread to get all its replyes, doesn't matter i'm author or not & not necessary to get them full, mail notification about by-actual-logic-not-sent can be enought if is problem with advertisment access (((& can be replyes (send after 24/48 hours from main thread start) send per-day all new-only together if is problem with too much mails))) but i started to search for my mark (t!) to not send it again and again it searched for t%21 (its problem how handles) and found something-quite-nothing without searched inside second case when i already speaking abuout search: can be nice to be able search in members for more than their name (((and when i starte about notification: old known: multiple author article-comments notification fails))) sorry, i'm repeating t! Re: search Chris Maunder7-Mar-02 3:08 Chris Maunder 7-Mar-02 3:08  Many, MANY people have requested the 'notify me when a thread is replied to' feature, and the only thing that is holding me back is a) Time b) Server considerations. We have 30,000 members and 3000 discussions. Let's say 10% of people subscribed to a dozen active boards (very conservative numbers). That's 36,000 emails a day (it would have to be at most a daily digest). Considering the newsletter itself is taking about a day to process, it means the email server would be swamped. Solution: more hardware -> more money + time So - it's gonna happen - but for it to happen we have to get other things in place (like our VS.NET store) so we have the resources and time to go for it. real name wrote: old known: multiple author article-comments notification fails Yep - this is high on my 'Fix this ASAP' list. cheers, Chris Maunder Re: search 7-Mar-02 3:06 7-Mar-02 3:06  keep cool, i understand and live with main comment was "search for t! failed" (a) your time) t!

It could be dangerous - Matt Newman -Sonork ID: 100.11179:BestSnowman † Re: search 13-Mar-02 3:29 13-Mar-02 3:29  when we already speaking about mail notifications: 1. now i got mail about reply to anonymous new-thead but no mail about that question anonymous are filtered? 2. why this has email-author case and mail inside is wrong? http://www.codeproject.com/internet/xymailclient.asp?forumid=2646&select=85536&tid=85513#xx85536xx this is already ok (without email-author) http://www.codeproject.com/internet/xymailclient.asp?forumid=2646&select=125187&tid=85513#xx125187xx and it anonymous article? (this are author's replyes) (his profile was deleted?) t! Which section ? Mauricio Ritter1-Mar-02 1:12 Mauricio Ritter 1-Mar-02 1:12  Let´s assume that I´ve an article of a game, written in C# that uses GDI+. In which section should I post it ? Games ? C# ? GDI+ ? Mauricio Ritter - Brazil Sonorking now: 100.13560 Trank Re: Which section ? Mazdak1-Mar-02 1:43 Mazdak 1-Mar-02 1:43  I think C# is better place,because another parts refer to VC++,but the last desicion is depend on CP editors Mazy "So,so you think you can tell, Heaven from Hell, Blue skies from pain,... How I wish,how I wish you were here." Wish You Were Here-Pink Floyd-1975 Re: Which section ? Chris Maunder1-Mar-02 3:37 Chris Maunder 1-Mar-02 3:37  C# for the moment. The C# section is going to be split out like the MFC section to make it easier to find stuff, so I'll add a Multimedia/GDI+ section within the C# umbrella. cheers, Chris Maunder Re: Which section ? Mazdak1-Mar-02 4:01 Mazdak 1-Mar-02 4:01  So my answer was right;) Mazy "So,so you think you can tell, Heaven from Hell, Blue skies from pain,... How I wish,how I wish you were here."

Chris Maunder28-Feb-02 3:22 Chris Maunder 28-Feb-02 3:22  Yeah - me on a bad day I'm assuming you're asking about bad/low rating/poorly edited articles - or is there some dirty underwear somewhere we've overlooked? cheers, Chris Maunder Re: Cleanup...

ColinDavies21-Feb-02 18:30 ColinDavies 21-Feb-02 18:30  It is by far way to easy to use other peoples names for Message Board / Forums posting. Someone used Dr Wluffs name today, although it was funny this could become confusing. I did it here http://www.codeproject.com/lounge.asp?forumid=1159&app=50&select=120020&fr=101#xx120001xx I would not have made this public but Nish advised me that all bugs should be publisized.

Well compared to some of the stuff Dr Wluff has posted it was inoffensive and tame. Nish [BusterBoy] wrote: Yes.

Yes if I can do it, a 9 yr old girl can do it in a big pink font, I cleanly admit it wasn't much of a discovery. Nish [BusterBoy] wrote: I believe in the bugtraq philosophy.

I always use a letter u after a letter q unless the word is a proper name like Qantas or Qatar. But I really don't undestand this philosophy. Is it documented somewhere ?

I agree, let it be known that a bug exists, but I believe its stupid and inconsiderate to publish how to exploit a security bug before there is any reasonable chance to fix it. For example this AOL AIM Bug. My $.02, James Sonork ID: 100.11138 - Hasaki "My words but a whisper -- your deafness a SHOUT.

Once published, bugs are quickly corrected. That sounds more like the Cigital philosophy. Isn't it better to send an email directly to the vendor to give them a chance to fix it instead of making it public and placing undue stress on the vendor by not giving them any lead time to fix the problem while malicious users use the new found security hole to play havoc? cheers, Chris Maunder
