Here are the results (a couple of weeks old)
Level Average
Platinum 3.0
Gold 3.4
Silver 3.6
Bronze 3.8
It just shows that the higher level a member is, the more fussy they are. The spread isn't that much though so all it says is 'on average people vote about 3.5'

Really intriguing stats those.
What would also be interesting to see is how many 1's 2's 3's 4s 5s were awarded.
Does anyone award a 3 ?

I would like to suggest hosting lightweight project foundries a la sourceforge.net[^]. There are a couple of things that I'd like to begin that require more expertise or energy than I have, but I don't want to go through the hassle of starting a sf.net project.
Any ideas? Has this already been suggested and dismissed?

You can add an article using the submission wizard and mark it as 'do not move' (add the comment at the end of the article text). That way you'll always be able to update. You can also add as many people as you want to the author's list so it should be simple to have collaboration.
cheers,

I dont know if this exists or doesnt or whatever, but the forums definately need search capability. There is no point in going through pages and pages and pages and pages of forum discussions just to find out that no one ever asked this question or posting a question that has been asked many times more.
So.... to make my story short, the forums need a way to search them just like the articles have their own search. If they do have a search, please someone tell me where it is because i couldnt find it.

Have you tred the 'search comments' link next to the 'Set Options' button at the top of the forums?

No, but now that Ive tried it, its exactly what i was looking for.
Would it be possible to make it read: "Search Message Boards" instead... because Search Comments doesnt say much in terms of what the search actually does, or thats just my opinion.
Thanks very much for pointing me in the right direction.

Not complaining too much but is there a problem with the CP webservices?[^]
My CP+ utility has been showing the same list of lounge posts and articles for the last 5 days or so. I checked the WS and it is also out of date. Last message is the Admin downtime message

*Paul sighs*
CP+[^] came before Desktop Bob and was a simpler version. It does pretty much the same thing, listing new Lounge posts and Articles. I did it to prove a VB coder could do C++ (ok, MC++) and also to try out webservices etc.
The VS.NET add-in part of it is not working well. But the stand-alone version works very well IMO. Sits in my taskbar everyday allday giving me updates on CP.
Obviously I need to learn a thing or to about marketing from the maker of Desktop Bob

Hi..

Chris, something similar has happened to me too. I have been with CP for the past 11 months (less than 1 year), have posted 0 articles, and posted 758 messages (including this one). I should have been silver even according to your comment above, but I have turned gold just a couple of days back.
I am not complaining, but I do feel guilty. I don't deserve the gold status yet.

this way i think it will be too easy to be golden and platinium members
I also suggest admins to add more categories to make them more than just four..

Hi, Gurus,
I got a little problem trying to set password on Access DB which runs on CD for distribution. Because the database file is on CD, so it is READ ONLY. But when I try to read data from this READ ONLY database file using ADO code, I got the password error. And the code was running fine on my hard drive without the READONLY setting.
Anyone can tell me how to solve this issue.

I don't think that you can. Anytime you access the mdb file with a password the system tries to create a lock file (ldb?) in the same directory and it can't if your DB is on CD.

I see in the lounge that many CPians are in pain when the site is partially down, when the sysadmins updates the scripts, or something in the servers.
I think that in that situation, changing the top logo with the image of Bob with the hammer (used for the Site Builders icon ) could help to calm the anxiety.
