Known bug I believe - I had one that said -5 minutes this morning  Possibly a result of having multiple web servers. Just a guess there though. It's a minor issue in my opinion, and probably would go away once Chris and gang finish the .NET 2 port.

It some times get annoying when the person who has created the thread deletes his post and it messes the whole thread.
Why not change the functionality of delete to just erase the contents of the message and change the subject to "Message Deleted".

It does work that way some times - but there seems to be some flaw that causes it to not work that way at times.

I was under the impression few users did that to ensure it doesnt mess the thread.

Nope - that's not so

If there are no child messages then the message is completely deleted. If there is a child message then the message contents are replaced to ensure threading is maintained. If someone deletes a message just when someone posts a reply then weirdness(tm) happens.

Yeah, that's happened a few times.

one trivial solution is that even messages without any child messages are not completely deleted, but replaced like others. although it does create some junk in the forum, but eliminates the problem and solves the confusion when a reply reaches your mailbox but does not show up on the forum.
I am sure you guys would have thought of this solution; the reasons you have not done it yet could be:
- don't want "no content" posts/threads floating around.
- it is too complicated, so not worth the effort because the bug occurs rarely.

...anyone?
When there are enough  articles on a certain topic to create a new section, it's a good habit to relieve "General" groups of some of their load... especially when the topic is very likely to expand.

I second that. There is a limited source of good AI related articles out there ( that I have been able to find ). Perhaps if a new section was created it might encourage some of the existing writers to fill it out a little. Perhaps the Mods could give it a trial for a few months?

Having to scroll/page down through 17 screens of article to reach the messageboard at the bottom of a big article is very annoying.

I voted your suggestion a 5. But, you could always press the [End] key - works in FF and IE.
|
|
|
|

and then I have to page up from the bottom. It's an improvment, but still not ideal behavior.

Sounds like a good idea to me.
BTW - if you ever need to provide such a link, tacking <a href="http://www.codeproject.com/cs/miscctrl/csharpgridcontrol.asp?forumid=14109#ForumTable" rel="nofollow">#ForumTable</a> onto the end of the URL should do it...

I would have thought the "Discuss" link at the top of the article (just to the left of the rating bar) does a pretty good job already.

Weird that I've never seen that till now

Ok, i know i've complained about it before, but that little row of links is awfully hard to find. I spend at least a few seconds searching for it every time i bookmark an article.

I totally agree. I'm open for suggestions...

I was kinda hoping for a "Make the fonts bigger" or "how about placing it just *here*" or "make the links follow the mouse around the screen" kinda thing.
But OK.
*blink*
I'm not sure it's helping.

What? You do not like the idea of having the link flashing? It's sure to draw the attention of people who are too blind to see it now.
