That's the ideal way, and I agree that some users are doing it. However, some do not just have the care to do it after they have solved their issue, and their questions stays on the unanswered bucket, when in fact, it was already solved.
Signature construction in progress. Sorry for the inconvenience.

If that is the case, how you are expecting them to mark as solved. If they really want to do that better to post the solution so that others can get help from the thread.
Thanks

It is not only a problem of OPs answering his own question, it is more a problem of OPs just don't accepting any of the solutions, because they don't even come back to the forum (answer is in notification).
There are really a lot of questions that have enough answer of enough quality to be marked as [solved]. I agree, that should be the task of the OP, but if we (I mean a group of people with enoguh reputation) can get ride of bad questions by reporting them... why not have a similar functionality to mark them as solved (let's say after 5 or 10 votes)?
That would keep the list of questions cleaner for those that filter solved questions.

If something has a solution... Why do we have to worry about?. If it has no solution... For what reason do we have to worry about?
Help me to understand what I'm saying, and I'll explain it better to you
Rating helpfull answers is nice, but saying thanks can be even nicer.

This sounds like a good idea to me.  I know they are working on revamping the QA area, so maybe they will include a feature like that.
PS. Sorry for replying to an "old" thread, but I am going through the history, looking for messages like this.

Hi CP
Is there a way to print an entire conversation thread from the forums?
I'd love to be able to print out a bunch of threads (often with up to 20 postings) and read them at my leisure on the train home.

If you click the Print icon on an article then you can get to a view of the forum associated with the article that is print friendly (after a second click). However, print view for forums seems to be nicely busted.
I'll add this to the bug list.

I've added a print icon at the top of the forums that should now allow you to print whatever's currently showing on the page. It's not quite a "show me all messages in a thread regardless of how many messages there are and print it" type thing, since that could cause issues on very long threads.
Let me know if you need tweaks.

Thx Chris. I'll let you know if anything comes up.

The following PRE tag contains  , but it actually renders as a space (rather than ). It should only do that if I type .

Found and fixed.
A little tricky, that one!

Gotta keep you on your toes.

There should be an option like:
1. Similar already published
2. Nothing new in it
Example, users publishing tip of 'how to send email' again and again.

|
|
|

At times there are few blog entries that are not related to development resource. At time of moderating them, none of the option is correct to pick - Unclear/Incomplete, Poor quality, Spam/Abusive, Plagiarized, Inaccurate/Misleading.
Can we have a new option for such articles? Irrelevant or Not a Dev resource, or anything that fits in here that respects the blog entry but not fit to be published.
Example:
Are you Cool or Practical?[^]
Big news, you can work 9 to 5[^]

I've added "Off topic". It should be available soonish.

That helps. Thanks Chris.

I don't see how those were off topic other than the incorrect tags of "C++", "Windows", and "MFC". They were (correctly) categorized under "The Developer's Life". I could see them being closed for other reasons, but miscategorization doesn't seem like one of them (presumably, the tags could be changed easily enough).
Is there something I'm missing?

Can we have some syntax highlighting please? How about a separate forum?

Added the colourisation - will be available next upload.
Do you think there will be enough C++11 discussion?

Awesome.

There doesn't seem to be much so far. Perhaps it'll pick up a bit here when VS12 comes out but VS11 has pretty good support for many of the features.

While going through all the questions in Q&A, I found some greyed-out questions about insurance policy and business school. The questions weren't clickable. Is this because the user's account was deactivated? Since these can't be opened, is it possible if they will just be removed from the list?

A bug. Just fixed it and will hopefully have the fix deployed today.

That's a little weird.
We're working on revamping the entire article versioning system this week to make it impossible (OK, incredibly, insanely unlikely) that stuff like this can happen.
