That would be the same as my "ignore user" idea, which was summarily dismissed.

Hmm... looks like I didn't take my own request very seriously.

Chris, is there any way you could make it so a user can't reply to his or her own post? After all, they can edit the sucker if they want to add something new. This post padding stuff is becoming old.

We need to schedule some outage to do some database maintanence (with a big stick). As soon as Dave and I can coordinate a time we'll announce it and the search will be back in place after that.

Chris,
would it be possible to bump the priority of the reply e-mails in the forums up above the newsletter mailing, or in the worst case move the replys to a different server so that they go out ASAP.
In some cases you can end up waiting a full 24 hours for a reply to be received, and if you don't frequent the boards that often have a serious delay.

I think the newsletters could be sent out late Sunday night when few people are using the messageboards, then the messages would arrive early monday morning (something to read when you get to work) and would not interfere with the reply emails.

How about adding a dummy value at the top of the list so people don't think they're in the VC++ forum when posting to the lounge
It looks like that is the cause for the latest programming question [new window] in the lounge.

My 2 cents on posting to wrong forums:
Incorrect poster --- minus 1 point
Incorrect poster replyer --- minus 5 point
Maybe Chris could put a message on the posting page for each forum, saying:
'please don't post anything other that topic {0} into this forum.'

Simon

Well, people aren't reading the big red warning that's in the Lounge now, so another warning message ain't gonna do any good unless it's 72 point blinking text.

Now, if it was a "72 point blinking text" in a marquee, then it would get attention!

Chris, I posted a comment, here is the link and the width when I used the pre tag went nuts, any ideas?

The <pre> tag respects whitespace, so it spits it out as you stick it in.

I understand that, however it should have wraped the text, as it normally does, it did not do that this time. Any ideas?

The pre tag (with the style sheet we use) never wraps text.

Hmmm.... I guess it just normally all fits within the page, sorry about the last post if you got that, I typed too quickly.
