The site's forums are the best out there (usability is better than MSDN forums, reddit, digg, and slashdot). Of course it's been this good for years now, so that explains why there haven't been many major UI changes. It's way harder to improve things once things get really good.

Right On!
And I like stability, why change for the sake of change?

"Better" is relative. So what may seem "better" to one person may not to another.
That said, why don't you mock up a few screenshots/design-diagrams of what you have in mind? That'll be sure to help.

Agree, but there are several things that are liked by more people. Anyways, I am on way to do that.

This comment on a comment on an article by Marc Clifton[^] is now listed in the Rep history as "Post a Programming Forum Answer" with a credit of +10.
However, my comment of general praise for Marc's article, directly as a comment on the article itself, receives, as expected +1.
Of course, it would delight me to find that CP had a new AI-neural-net comment scanning algorithm, running on a loaner "Watson," from IBM, that was able to judge erudition and wit, upgrade comment status, and reward appropriately

Points are awarded based on the comment type. The original comment by Unruled Boy was marked as a question, and your post was marked as an answer. Since Watson is busy playing chess or something we have to rely on what we get. It's an imperfect science.

Fascinating, Chris, I had no idea comments could be marked as questions !

Why does CP support Flash but not Silverlight (or even - GAK! - HTML5)?

You can post silverlight videos within articles using the "Insert video" dialog in the article editor, but for dedicated video articles we only support Flash because the video article feature was implemented by us for our Tech Summit archives and we only needed to support flash.
I'm more than happy to add support for Silverlight and HTML5 but there hasn't been any demand. If you have a video you'd like to post then we'll definitely improve support.
Our biggest challenge right now is finding a video hosting service that caters to what we need. That's a different problem though...

Well I do see a survey. But the competition should have been up last week.

Christmas celebrations mean we need a little more slack at this time of the year. They'll be up by the end of the day.

Thanks Chris.
I did not ask that in a mean way. Was seriously curious about it

It is only the 12th, you have nearly two weeks yet.

I dare you to keep a straight face and tell me you haven't been engaging in warm up celebrations. I know you prefer to play it safe and not throw yourself into things without limbering up first.
