To be honest. I like the fact that you can't just copy and paste code into a forum post.
Very rarely should you need to post the entire code. You should just need to post the part that you've identified is causing your problem. Anything else is just clutter and indicates that the poster hasn't put much effort into resolving the problem.
Posters who have put effort into their question description are more likely to get answered.

ok for copy/paste, but when you type your code, you often forget to replace the < > into their html code...
that would be helpful because, the checkbox "do not treat <'s as HMTL tags" is sometimes unusable... for example, if you want to write a colorized text, with bold/italic/underlined fonts, you cannot while the checkbox is selected...
of course, not fogetting to click on the < and > buttons would be better, but that is rarely the case of many of us.

To add to what Michael said, there is an option "Do not treat <'s as HTML tags" on the post page that a user can click if the need to. Otherwise it allows users to submit HTMLful pages.

When you want to give me a link to a forum posting use the "Get Link" button and do NOT copy the address bar - it won't work if you've been browsing because the address bar is showing you relative to the start of the page, which will move add people add posts.
I just want to add that I agree with Michael, if people are so lazy that they just want to dump pages of source code into a post without thought then I'm really not interested. If they are thoughtful and consise then it takes very little effort to put < in the few places it is needed for to get the post readable. Heck, sometimes I produce quite a long reply and I have to put lots of the < all over the place to make it readable. But that is fine by me.

Message postings and replies in CP forums trigger a mail to the original message author or article author and the from address is forums@codeproject.com
There is a line (first line perhaps) which says 'Sent from unattended mailbox' but the next line itself carries the address of the sender.
My suggestion is that, instead of having forums@codeproject.com, the from address can be directly set as this address. Or the ReplyTo header can be set to the senders address. Is'nt it?

The reply to address was changed to the forums email because many people were posting messages with dud email addresses which then caused a bounce back to the person who originally posted the message.

Hi:
When mouse is hovered over 'MessageBoards' a nice DHTML pulldown menu pops up. It really looks nice. But when there any dropdowns before the pulldown menu stops, a window (hole) appears in the dropdown menu. I think in those cases, the dropdown menu/select dropdown control need to be adjusted of its zIndex property.

This is a bug in IE, the "hole" does not appear in FireFox.

Hi:
In forum posting, if Screenshot attachment facility is given, it would be useful to provide helpful screenshot as a quick reference.
Of course, I understand that this will lead to junk files being uploaded. But size restriction like 50K (gif/jpg only) can be imposed and periodic scanning and removal of files can be done.

Hi.
I submitted an article[^] through the Wizard yesterday, and this morning it is missing. Now, I believe it is being edited, but why does it need to be invisible to the readers during editing? Also, it would be nice to send an e-mail notification to the author when something like this happens.
I really hope it is being edited. Why would anyone remove an article like this (it is about some C++ dark corners)

There is no 404 page. Just all the links to my article disappeared.
