If I take the time to answer a question on a forum I don't want the original poster to be able to delete it's original posting after I replied. This does leave the answer without any coherence and without use for other people who don't even know the problem to my answer.

It's happened to me too - I reply to a post and the original poster deletes his original post (possibly cause he/she is embarassed at having asked a question the answer to which was rather easy).
One solution is to quote the entire post when replying.

In a way, after a thread has earned some child threads, it should be blocked off from being deleted or a confirmation email should be sent to the user and all child thread authors. If all agree, then after a moderator approval the threads can be deleted.

Did you ever get a chance to look at that search bug I reported some time ago?

You can set the subject of your reply by editing the Subject box on the Reply page. You can also change the subject of an existing post when you edit it - by default it stays the same. My guess is that Vikram edited his reply and updated the subject to reflect that.
When you reply, the default subject for your post is 'Re:' plus the subject of the post you're replying to, minus a leading 'Re:' if one is present. So the default subject for the post you created, and the other replies, was 'Re: Wrong year? [edited]', even though you didn't edit anything.

Several Years ago the german televison made a funny mistake. They accidently(?) boradcasted the Chancellor's new year's address not from the current year but from the year *before* - and no one noticed this exept his staff.
Sort of this semmed to have happened to your ID-4 Logo. We have 2005, right?

I'm learning assembler and found that this site doesn't have assembler forum...
Why?
Does none of you programmers out there like assembler?
I beleve that good programmers have to program assembler some part in their life. It makes them better. I read that in a book, and it's true, I learnt
to think better when I program now, and I'm just beginner.

I think that the forums need to be reconstructed!!!
The topics are too general... we should have a forum for the language c++, a forum for the windows api, a forum for kernel-mode api and so on.
At the moment all these topics are postet to the visual c++ forum, which is not very reasonable.
The hardware forum was just one single step, but I think there should be major changes in the whole forum system!
As I can imagine that it is not very much work to create a new forum the changes should applied quickly after a discussion which forums are really needed.
Don't try it, just do it!

I think you want to make an irc out of cp or maybe a google groups? check both, you wont be hurt, you'll actually become enlightened, and anyways  like you said: "Don't try it, just do it!" so why don't you make your own []_(())[]_!!!!

If this is your suggestion there is no reason to have a C++ related forum at all. You can always consult google groops.
But since there is a forum for C++ there should be subforums related to the different topics. This is something I'm missing too. There is too much traffic for C++ as a whole.

The problem is that people don't post in the correct forums now. Imagine adding more! The problem - and I'm sure I'll get voted down on this - is that too many people will go ahead and answer questions posted in the wrong forum.
This causes two problems:
1) It encourages the questioner to continue posting wherever he/she likes regardless of the forum topic
2) It kills the credibility of searching a specific forum for a question as the desired information might very well have been asked for and answered on a completely unrelated forum.

Well, if so, only because you posted it in the wrong forum...
