But we need a "belongs in the lounge" button, in SB.

Yes, and vise versa, a "belongs in the Soapbox" button, in the Lounge

If it got used frequently, everyone would fall asleep reading the Lounge.

Maybe we could have a "Send to Soapbox" button, and it could slowly appear on the soapbox whilst it was disappearing from the lounge!

It's such a tiny issue to get worked up about.

No it's not because you probably weren't here before the voting started. Ever since the tone of the message boards has taken a steep dive for the worse. It's a tiny issue I guess if you don't give a crap about this site, but if you had been here from the beginning and cared at all you might see it differently.

I'm always impressed by folks who do their homework. I just passed the 5 year mark.

The site is getting larger and attracting more grumps and more people to be grumpy about. That won't change if you get rid .of the voting, methinks.

Okay, you are so much more noble than I am, I am blinded by your light. (But I won't 1-vote you )

Hmmm...I seem to remember the voting being older than that but whatever, if you were here before the voting then you know the difference in that time.

Voting discourages having a conversation about anything, perhaps you're right, less conversation might result in less nuisance posting, I'm not convinced though.

Vote away, I ignore the votes anyway. 
See how we're having a conversation here instead of just 1 or 5 voting each other? That's what I'm talking about.

Exactly. That's my m.o. until Chris does away with the voting, or improves it to the point that people could be more mature about it. Maybe only give voting privileges to members who have been around for say, more than 3 years and they post on a regular basis.

I agree and I could really care less about it.

Obviously that's not true or you wouldn't be posting in this thread at all.

It's not that I care about the voting system, it's the on going rant about doing away with it that is more a debate to me. Bottom line, fix it to make it somehow idiot proof.

I agree - the whole 'bad reply/good reply' thing means that people who are obviously not capable of detecting that they have been given the only possible answer, mark it as bad, on the basis that it requires thought on their part. However, it's also true anyone can mark replies, at a minimum, I suggest only allowing platinum members and the person who asked the question to mark the answers. Then at least those answering know for sure that the user is the one who down marked their ( perfectly correct ) reply.

i using codeproject past one year it is working good, realy good. Some time i fill very happy with this unit.
Ok small suggesstion, In article search i thing no need for AND, OR, NOT, etc,. Why cont you use general search. most of the time if i search means it wont reply for my search query.
And one more thing, for feed back responses are very slow. Please make it fast.
And other then my knowledge it working great. Keep it up.....

You don't need to use AND, OR etc but, when you put in search terms, there is an implicit assumption that you are using AND between your terms so we put these in to make it clear. Showing exactly what your query is actually doing also means that if you use our more advanced features such as parentheses and multiple AND/ORs then it's clear as to what our system is interpreting your query as.

Not sure what you mean.

If I search for XEmph I get no results, but searching for XEmphasisButton finds the article. Would it be possible to return the results based on a match of however many characters you enter?

Unfortunately we can't. We're using a full text index to keep the speed of the searches useful so partial words aren't indexed and won't be returned.

I try search "marshal AND C#" in the Search page.
It work in the first result page, but if I click
'Next', or event '3' page, sometime the result
is wrong.
I check the search text-box, and seems the '#' letter
is disappear in the following page.

Why don't you use attribute filters instead of typing c#?

Thanks,
Yes it work now.
I just follow the example below the text box:

Good.
