I know this is seriooverdue, but I've put in place some changes that should make this less likely to occur.

Hello
When i go to the "Chapters", all links give me a "Page not found" error.
Can some confirm, or is just on my machine?
Thanks

I'm working on it, but as you know the problem is a tricky one. It's one of those things where you stare at the problem and still can't quite understand why it happens.

Rude. At least from India you get both knowledge resources and at times stupidity from novice developers. It is unfair to brand the entire nation for a few rotten apples.
BTW, how are you going to deal with China then? They are hellish bullies when it comes to plaigarising content.

Surely they cant be as bad as that other site you're associated with?

It seems that article links point to old links which existed before cp upgrade. You can check by looking at the link of my articles and trying opening any of them.

But wouldn't that be a clutter for the ever-vibrant forum. Also, with the amount of hits the forum is recieving, a careful planning to avoid the following dreaded errors, famous in Windows servers.

Good day
I've noticed a topic on this forum can in no way change its position after it's been posted. Most forums automatically make your topic jump back to the top of the board when someone replied.
Why isn't this the case with this forum? It's sometimes annoying to have your topic at the sixth page, with someone that answered, and you answer back, but your topic keeps grounded to page six, between all those posted-one-day-ago topics  , doesn't really make sense. I don't think people will still digg up your topic when it's that far already, maybe only people that already replied to your topic because they subscribed to it as well.
Thanks in advance

The problem here is that abuse can happen and threads can be perpetually bumped.
Check the "Message View" dropdown and choose "Thread View" - that may help

Apparently most other forums found a way to avoid that. And it's not that hard. A posting timer, so you can't post every two minutes or so. And for example you can not post twice in the same topic without anyone else replying, or you can only double post after 24 hours of no replies or so. There are dozens of ways to avoid abuse. And you always have moderators to control everything.
Another reason why you get on a high page quickly, is because expanded view is default, many people won't change it to Thread View either because they don't care, or because they don't know the feature exists.

But this is what keeps forum discussions active. Not allowing quick reparte kills the atmosphere.

Then there's a very simple solution. Don't allow members to double post. This shouldn't be a problem because you can edit your post any moment you like, and it's even marked with a [modified] tag (which was a very good idea, not many forums have that).
You could optionally allow them to post if there hasn't been a reply for 24 or 48 hours, but only once. 
That way you won't need any moderators, and the system is foolproof.

Bumping has been a problem on all the other forums I have been on, even with all the safe guards that you have mentioned, and even more. The only to prevent it from happening sometimes is to not let it happen at all.

I don't think the disadvantages of bumping are greater than the advantages of answers longer than one post actually getting answered, instead of digged into the eternal void of oblivion.
Bumping also isn't that horrible. It's mainly done by people that didn't get their question answered, but ended up quite far in the page ranking, sometimes just because of bad timing.

That's a bold claim. You get used to the way the system works, and I must admit that I happen to like it.

And what to do when you made a new topic at an unfortunate moment, and it gets digged to the 20th page in no time? Just make a new one?
