A search for UTF-8 won't bring up Cilu's new article.<br/>A search for "c# events" brings up no search results.<br/>A search for "event" brings up a huge number of advertisers, no hits.<br/>What the heck is going on ?<br/>Darwen.

The latest commercial trick on the site is a bit too much. :eek: On a slow connection if takes forever to load completely and until then the control bar is unavailable.

What the &^%$# is going on with Code Guru?? I used to really enjoy this site... but the advertising is getting worse and worse.First it was just the standard banners at the top of the page. That was fine I could handle that.Next we got subjected to having these stupid ads on the right of the page......

There seems to be a problem with the list of lastest articles displayed on the top of a page when a thread is viewed. It hasn't been updated on a while (quite a while). The list of articles displayed on the right when a forum page is viewed is correct.

Spreading Reputation Around

763 byte By gstercken at 2007-11-19 14:20:02
This is a "feature" which has been bugging me for a long time, since I run into it very often: I want to rate a post, and get the usual "You must spread some reputation..." message. Therefore, more often than not, I can't give a positive rating to a post that would have deserved it. Probably th...

I can somehow feel dev-archive is much slow than what it used to be earlier. <br/> <br/>It takes 2 minutes for search to complete. Sometimes i get a page cannot be displayed error as well...<br/>Can anyone feel this or i am going nuts!!!<br/>Regards<br/>Kandukondein

Scrolling code.

When the number of lines inside a code tag exceed 30 lines it begins to scroll. I think most people find nested scroll bars annoying. Whenever I post code I try my best to fit the code I post to 30 lines or less. Often it takes multiple edits before the scroll bar disappears. Here's an examp...

No negative ratings.

You know, I have given out a few negative ratings. While I generally try to stay away from them, I have given them out.

I have read up on Cimperiali's description of Reputation but I am not fully getting it.I think it would be nice if when we rate people, it says something like..."You will increase *name*'s reputation by X number of points.P.S. How can I know now how many I give off? I have tried to deduce...

Cross posting

1196 byte By Mathew Joy at 2007-11-19 15:28:45
Cross posting is not accepted here. I guess because the persons who view multiple forums (to answer) will have to view the question again and again, and also will have the answer to the same questions in different thread(so one cannot say if the solution one offer is already offered or not). Both wa...

We all accept that we have advertisers here who sponsor the site.But the current banner ad at the top of the page includes slowly-typed-out slogans from Sun, and until the entire slogan appears, the forum thread is inhibited from displaying itself. For example, one slogan is "Sun is making a call t...
