SY- Ping
JR- Cache servers rock.
Perhaps you're looking for something the opposite of the killfile, to make select user's comments stand out from the rest.
Hi Mr. Robinson,
Hope you're having a great evening! While you're treaking the system, I'd like to add to the chit-chat that having a way to search our own posts would be very helpful. If we already have that feature, then forgive me...I haven't found it. But, you know...something like what IE has. Maybe even something where we could pull up a list of every thread we have posted to?
Of course not! I ain't nobody. Just a dude with a broken body and a broken brain.
Not that there's anything wrong with that. </Seinfeld>
If you want a Google GMail account, FReepmail me.
Ah, in my new URLs, there will be a page #, you should be able to walk through all the page #s seqentially until you get a 404 Not found. But I don't think its a good idea to autoping every poster to a thread. We used to have it. I disabled that feature years ago because of popular complaint. You used to be able to address a post to "all" to ping everybody on the thread.
You'd like the API stuff I want to do. Are you familiar with the C# .NET libraries for parsing JSON (JavaScript Object Notation)? Basically, I want to use JSON (rather than XML) because my API is specifically intended to be used in client-side Ajax-style JavaScript, and there is no more natural encoding to JavaScript code than JavaScript data.
LOL. You know rdb3, I never before noticed that little r before you blew it up bigger. (Note to self. Have eyes checked soon)
Note from PROSOUTH:
I didn't see it listed but an EDIT button would be nice to correct errors or tempers.
I'd really like to change the look of the forum, in some minor ways, but we'll see how that goes in testing. Some of the changes I do believe we'll see are related to where certain pieces of information are placed and grouped. For example, "topics" and "keywords" will be merged into a single list and displayed in a sidebar close to the top of the article. The reasons for these changes will be non-trivial, they will be an effort to simplify the interface and make it more inviting to new users.
Edit is definately a desired feature. Comments and articles.
I agree, John! You're doing fantastic and I thank you!
Oh no! If we had that, we wouldn't have 'hugh' and 'series'!
Besides, when someone posts something really stupid, I wanna be able to throw it in their face for years to come!
(Hey numbnuts! Remember this?)
Yes, that would do it! How to make it user selectable would be the challenge.
Whatever.
What's wrong with taglines?
Hm. Hmmmm... Hmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmm......
You're welcome. Glad you like it. But answer the question! Does it? ;-)

Only when you're doing wheelies.
Go to search, type in your user name, click "by poster" and hit enter. Pretty simple!
