I just noticed than when it's the drop-down list for chosing a forum I did not see Mobile. Can this be added?

Most forum lists show 30 forums, the drop down lists only 24 of them.

this weeks tips:
- make Visual display line numbers: Tools/Options/TextEditor/...
- show exceptions with ToString() to see all information
- before you ask a question here, search CodeProject, then Google

I don't want to have too many forums in that list - just the most popular. Maybe I should have it be generated dynamically based on the forums de jour (or de mois)

What do you think about that?
A forum where people would post only post jokes, where "Reply" would be disabled and they will receive votes depending on how good the jokes are.

Lounge does have regular JOTD posts. A bit aggressive jokes are also seen in Soapbox.

I gotta say you beat our resident Suggestions guy*** in posting this bizarre idea. Right VDK?

The and the icons are way too similar.
How can we be asked to post under these conditions, it's inhumane at best.

I'll put together a task force immediately to investigate, report back and make recommendations on this.

Hi Development Team
Its realy nice to have such a wonderfull forum in town. Well I have a suggestion for this forumn regarding SEO.
By URL Rewriting we can create seperate pages for each post. In this way users looking for solution to an error using Search Enginse, will come directly to the page, where other people already replied to the topic.
Furthermore there should be an option to browse throught all the messages. In this way Search Engines can crawl all the posts and it can be included in SERP.
Keep rocking the world of .NET

Nice idea, except that people don't seem to use search engines before they post in the forums. They just post as soon as they hit a problem/get a piece of homework. Let's wait until we've got some user optimisation first.

I think it would be a good idea to display the warning "Do not post programming questions in the lounge" also on the main page of the lounge forum, and not only when the user starts a new thread.
Wouldn't an early notice like this reduce the number of programming questions in the lounge?
Thanks.

Or how about a ShowModalDialog confirmation on entry of Lounge/Soapbox that 'You are entering a non-programming discussion board. Click YES to enter. NO to cancel and go back to forums homepage. '.
Comparing other discussion forums, Experts-Exchange uses this while entering 'Expert Care' forum section.
I would suggest a ShowModalDialog since you can afford to miss it unless you deliberately click any of the buttons to proceed.

Only if it's disabled for anyone with more than say 10 posts or 1 article.

I would suggest it has to be 100 posts or 1 article.

I see in the newsletter you are *still* looking for developers to work on CodeProject and still insisting they live in Toronto. All the talent available here cut off without any consideration, seems a little weird. I'm sure there are a lot of 'talented, highly motivated, detail oriented, team players' here, as the cliche, goes who would be willing to help out in many ways. I can't fathom any good reason for this and am very curious why this would be.
I'm just idly curious, I don't actually care either way but it seems so counterintuitive I just have to ask -- what's up with that?

Experience. We've had, and have, offsite developers and we've found it takes a very, very special type of person to be able to work as efficiently offsite as they do onsite. We're not doing this on a whim.
We're also looking for a Dev Lead and a Dev Lead who isn't in the office is ineffective as a mentor, guide, constant reassuring presence, sounding board and instant second pair of eyes.
Finally, we want a team. A group who work together, enjoy each other's company, who can chat in a relaxed fashion about work problems and get those "ah ha!" moments you don't get in formal settings. We want a group who will hang around and play video games, or develop rivalries and try and out-do each other.
I don't want developers just to do the work. I want that human touch that makes a group of developers bigger than the sum of the parts and an office full of bright, dedicated people who care about each other and care about what we're doing.
Maybe I'm just old fashioned.

At least you get to get up, stretch, walk around the plane, get some work done, take a nap, ... all while someone else drives!

Sod that for a game of soldiers. I want to fly the plane as well.
