Hey Chris, Yesterday the Managed C++/CLI forum was still exhibiting that behavior but today it is not.
Just in case you might want to work on the problem and this information might help by narrowing down the time of changes in behavior.

I think, the default location "your country" for the membership sign-up page should not be USA. Also, the default time zone should not reflect -5:00 GMT. This makes new members default location to USA, which does not reflect their location. It is true that any one can change it to what ever they want, but by default, it should not be set to particular region.
How about either making this field optional and let user select their location?
As a bonus, detect the users IP address and map it to their region.

I've noticed the ASP.NET forums loading up with lame questions at 11:30pm California time, by folks with so-so grammar, using words like "urgent", that say USA for their country. Sure

Some kind of Department of Customs and Border Protection should be setup for such pranksters too!

We already do. Unfortunately GeoIP databases are not reliable

I admit. And (anonymous) proxy servers fuel the burning fire too.

With IE7 their seems to be an issue with text not wrapping or text going beyond scrollable view when someone posts in the forums. I was posting: this message[^] trying to make a point and I could only see the edit/delete buttons in Mozilla Firefox. In IE7 half of the message was cut off including the buttons so I couldn't edit what I posted until I switched to Mozilla.

When I relpied to the post below this one I was redirected to the CP homepage instead of back to the forum.

You probably need to reconfirm your email address. Chris requires that this be done periodically (annually) to make sure the address is still valid, but there's no notification of when you're expiring/expired unless you're visiting the article section....

Everything looks fine with your account, and you've confirmed your email which means emails definitely get through to you. Have you checked your spam filters (and those of your ISP?)

Well, I am getting these emails.
I'll try to check on any filters, but I do not think that is a problem.
