Ditto to that -- I was just about to post the same suggestion. Wish I could figure out a way to get rid of all the .NET docs in Visual Studio..!

When will I become a gold member?

Membership status calculated as follows:
1-4 articles posted = Bronze. 5-14 articles = Silver. 15-24 articles = Gold. 25+ articles = Platinum. Each 500 messages posted adds one level, and if a user has posted a message then each year of membership adds 1 level. Bonus levels not valid for Gold members. Bronze is awarded at the beginning of the first 500 messages posted instead of the end.

Yes, I know about that. But I couldn't quite understand the formula. Well, I guest I have to read that carefully again, to get it.

Okay - you've got 3 articles (+1) and 504 posts (another +1) -> means you are +2 == Silver.
Understood?

|
|
|

i did some comparison with this.[^] So I think I will be gold next month, right?

Technically you should be Gold now - I forgot to add points for your 2+ years of membership.
You'll have to wait for the next status-update cycle I guess.

What happened to the CPP? I remember that I saw a few thread posted across the forums where CPians were working on something. I just can't seem to find it anymore.
Wouldn't it be a good thing to have a section here on CP where those projects are listed with their status: {Runing, Stopped, Paused, etc..} and everything related to those projects?
I think that it's nice to see what all the CPians can do together besides solving each others problems.
I also got the blogging virus..[^]

I believe they're all "stopped". I don't recall any of them getting very far.
|
|
|
|
|
Inevitably things splintered as different people wanted different things and the projects went outside CP.
There was also a certain amount of friction as a result of this

I am currently getting HTTP 500 errors while trying to access CP. I tried accessing individual servers and web2 did not work. web1, web3, and web4 worked fine though. (that's all I tried, not sure how many servers you guys got)

I was getting the same error most of the day, just a big ugly 500 server error message.

Yeah, web2 seems to have been napping for most of the day. Back up now though. And quite snappy...

I think Chris should just accept it and skip out web2 altogther. There is clearly something supernatural at work here.

We'd recently changed our load balancing system and instead of giving you a random server it was locking you into one server. That meant that when a server went down you were stuck with a blank screen.
We do have automatic health monitoring the cycles servers when they fail. Unfortunately it seems a service pack somewhere along the line is causing the health monitoring service to lock up. (do we need a health monitor to monitor the health monitor?). The combination meant a server would die for an extended period and you'd be stuck on it.
We've gone back to the old (slower) load balancing method until we've got both problems sorted. This should mean that a simple refresh will get you out of trouble.
cheers,

How about a Python forum? Especially after the release of IronPython?

I second that! I am a Visual Basic .Net coder at heart, but since I learned Python a few weeks ago I am loving it more and more. I keep running to my linux-box or even IronPython on my Windows box to crank out my ideas. I used to run to Visual Studio, and I still love it as it's my best known language, but I'm so intrigued by python and what I can do with it. Please add a python forum, and I promise I will come back here more often. Right now I'm using DaniWeb a lot because they already have a Python forum.

I have many years of computer experience, but:
How the ******** do I find my own inputs to threads?
Suggestion:
How about a "Show my messages" (or threads) widget so that one click saves the user from searching for all the silly comments s/he made yesterday when s/he was
choose as appropriate:
drunk
off base
out to lunch
half asleep
totally asleep
what is sleep?

In those days when there was a page named 'demographics', I'd noticed that a lot of site members come from Afghanistan. It was a little hard to believe that, but now, I think I've figured it out why most of the site members are Afghan!
Whenever the 'update settings' page is opened, where you can update your profile, the selected country, regardless of your country, is Afghanistan which is the first item in combobox. So, when somebody goes to that page to change something like his/her signature or picture, the country is automatically changed and saved to Afghanistan. So I recommend you to make sure if you come from Afghanistan or not!

I've never had that problem and I've updated my profile often. The only time I set it was when I first joined up. That DropDownList also had Afganistan as the first option, so perhaps it is people who want to sign up quickly, say in order to download something, that don't care about their profile that leave it at the default setting of Afganistan.
I remember a MS employee telling me at TechEd a few years back that MS found the same problem when they introduced Product Activation - Apparently there are more registerd copies of Windows in Afganistan than the population would suggest likely.
