Hmmmmm. So you're suggesting that we have a "Let's see what we have to do to offend John" contest?
I like it!

Um...err...
I'm going to go lock myself in the basement. Let me know when it's over.

OK, to kick it off...I think John actually likes to watch Dancing With The Stars, and afterwards locks himself in the bathroom and practices the dance steps he's just seen.
Top that!

I watch it as a reasonable attempt to appease the gods. These are the same gods that ensure a good hunt, or victory in hand-to-hand combat (which doesn't include switching hands when slapping around ol' Mr. One Eye). Smart men do not intentionally anger the gods.

Actually, only one person has offended me here on CP, and it happened in 2003 (I think). I won't bother dredging it up again, but the person also left many other regular users aghast at what he said.
Other than that one thing, Chris is right. People would generally have to work long and hard to find a way to offend me.

I don't even know what cardigan is.
We actually have a Hyundai in the family.
Celine Dione? I'd hit it - as long as her mouth is taped shut... and she's handcuffed... and tied to a... - oh wait.

Man, this thread is really marching across the page! I can't even tell what you're responding to.
But it sounds positive, so I guess no one will take immediate offense.

To keep people from cheating on voting with multiple accounts, there should be a reason why you voted for the article when you select one, visible for everyone to see. That way we get rid of people who use seperate accounts to vote.
The reason i bring this up is because the article "A beginner’s guide for consuming a WCF service in JavaScript using ASP.NET AJAX - Masudur" received 17 votes in a matter of 2 mins at around 1:00 am.
Not to say this isnt possible, but if you look at how many votes the actual article has is 35 with about 4900 or so views since feb 10. Its highly unlikey that a mass amount of people just decided to vote instantly on the competition.

There are many ways for me to say how much I admire me, my writing style, or my ability to attract women. I fear I would lose interest long before I ran out of compliments for myself.

But if we limited the character count, and you could only vote for yourself once, you'd have to get pretty damned focussed to target your narcissism.

In the intro text "innapropriate" is spelled wrong (extra 'n').

There may be a way to do this already - but I'm blowed if I can find it.
When I visit a forum I would like to see only messages posted since my last visit - but to see the whole thread of which that thread forms a part.
i.e. show all threads changes since my last visit - expanding the (first, last or all) message(s) withing the thread that have been posted since my last visit - but still showing (unexpanded) all other messages within the thread.
On the same subject, I'm not sure the current filtering is working quite right- I filtered by messages since last visit - and saw tow messages - but there was at lease one other message less than 5 minutes old which did not appear until I changed to show all messages.
So - if I go to this forum right now,m with filter set to 'last day' layout 'normal' I see a post by Hans 31 mins ago, and a reply by Chris 11 mins ago (subject'I got it') (and a few other messages). If I change the filter to 'last visit' I only see Hans' post.

There's no way to do what you want at the moment, but I'll add it to the TODO

The killer argument for why we need images in posts: email addresses. That's right, you make an image of your email address, put it in your sig or post, and you don't have to worry about bots and spiders signing you up for all kinds of prurient spam!

A better way is to have your email address in a table, one cell per character. It's text, can be cut and pasted, and needs no images.
