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.....

Hi Colin,
I mentioned the feedbacks given to webmaster@codeproject.com.
Thanks for the response.

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.

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:
eg. CListCtrl; "Grid Control" ; ((C# AND NOT Grid) OR Spreadsheet)
Good.

Updates made to posts are not immediately visible. This error seems to be a persistent and recurring one.

This is correct and is because we cache messages to reduce the load on the database servers. If you modify a post then the cache for the particular server you are on is invalidated and refreshed, but the other servers will not have the change propogated until either someone adds/removes a post, or 5 mins later, whichever is sooner.

The message IDs are different meaning multiple posts.
Looks like he was either drunk, temporarily insane, or was experiencing site difficulties.

The last two are double indented and threaded in reply to the wrong post. That seems to rule out a user end error.

So you're saying we can narrow it down to him being drunk or there being a site error?

Unless there's an option to double indent a post that I've never heard of it can't all have been due to intoxication. Which is not to say he didn't get plastered as well.

Yeah, there's an option for it - you just post a reply to yourself, then delete the parent before the reply has a chance to propagate to the server you're talking to. Or something like that; i've made it happen before, but never reliably.
So yeah, he must have been totally wasted...
