Yes, I is like last week.
Excellent! It was driving me crazy.

Would it be possible to provide the ability for certain trusted members to move questions to more appropriate forums? It gets a bit silly when you have to point somebody to the right forum because
a) you've just replied to the message, preventing it from being deleted
and
b) if you're telling somebody, you might as well perform the action
I know that you've given certain members site admin privileges in the past - the user base needs expanding (and you could easily limit the functionality to just moving the message - along with triggering an email to the user telling them that their question was moved).

alternatively (probably simpler to implement and less confusing to the OP), one could introduce the concept of a weak reply: with a checkbox (or a new message type) you could turn your reply into a weak one, one that doesn't prevent the parent message being deleted by its author. Additionally, the presence of such weak reply might prevent other replies from being added (indefinitely, or for some time span, giving the OP the opportunity to remove it all).

Hmm, but then people on a revenge-trip might use this weak reply to block the original post from getting more answers...

whatever CP would add to remedy the situation would require some restrictions based on rep points or so; as Pete said "for certain trusted members" only.

Oh, you're right, I didn't see that part.

The question is "does Chris trust my member"?

Id' trust you, or:

He sure doesn't trust all his members.

When I go to the search page, it says "No results were found for the selected search terms and search options." Before a search has been performed, perhaps it should say "Configure search options to the left and enter your search terms above."

Another blatant failure by Chris' System.Search.ReadMind function. That .NET stuff just doesn't cut the kielbasa.

Actually, he probably doesn't need to use that namespace. He just needs to use Request.QueryString. He might even be able to apply that to the string of request queries ("I can haz feature?") he's been getting in this forum.

The bug list on that feature is getting out of control.

What do the numbers represent next to the names of the top experts? Is that the number of rep points they've earned in the specified period? If so, does that also include points they've earned answering questions in the programming forums?

It's points earned in Questions and Answers during the given period. No forum points are included.

Is it possible to NOT show pending stuff after you've approved/reported it? I hit the site from both work and home, and pending items that I approve/report at home still show up at work, and vice-versa. Is there a way you can make it so that approved/reported items show up the same regardless of what computer I'm on?

Yep - we can do that. I'll add it to the list.

That's a bad idea. Sometimes I want to revisit a pending article because I've had second thoughts about it, or want to modify an earlier post there.

I think I'm going to have to ask all 7 million users to come to a single consensus before presenting a request for change.
So: how about we provide a simple list page that lists all pending items with a little mark next to it to show you which ones you've reported.
