Yes. Each user should be able to maintain their own "ignore list"

Slashdot.org has something like this, and it works well for me:
Registered users can mark another user as a friend, or a foe. Messages from my "friends" are sent to the top of the pile, and messages from my "foes" are sent to the bottom of the pile.
My list of friends and foes is public knowledge available to anyone viewing my profile. I can also see those that have marked me as a friend or a foe.

Voting allows me to say "thanks" or "lol" or "what crap" without having to reply (which is slow)

For forum ratings it would cause horrible flame wars (hey you, why did you vote me "1" !)
But for article ratings it would be very helpful. If I knew who rated my article as "poor", I could ask him what is wrong with it. Usually people are too lazy to post a comment after reading two pages of text and find it is crap, so they rate the article "poor" - and I don't know what exactly they mean, so I can't correct the article.

If the person really wants to vote you down in the articles... he/she will / should have to reason it

Yeah i agree, but do you think that the downvoter will give you a reason if you ask for a reason?;P

Let the system allow the user to poll, only after the user posts a comment.

Then you would get a comment something like this.
"I didnt like this"
"Useless"
"sucks"
"wtf"

What i mean to say that, if you force someone to post a reply when he votes, these kinda nonsence replies will be there instead of constructive critisiism.
And ppl who really wants to give a constructive critisism do give one.

The HTML IMG tag should be supported on these forums.
It is already possible to do it using the DIV tag but this is a very laborious method.
If images are to be allowed, then please make it easy for us.
If not, then images shouldn't be allowed via the DIV tag.
Anyone who wants to add images to their posts:
Just find a post where the SIG contains an image - there are many of them.
Right click and view code.
Copy the code and edit it to point to your image.
There it is!

To keeps things simpler, add only text your sig... adding images to your sig will only make ppl viewing ur posts slower to load.

|

That is the whole point of my post here. If images sre to be allowed then make them simple via the IMG tag. If they are not wanted - perhaps because of slow load times, then disable the DIV tag in posts to actually get rid of the images.

I downloaded a great source code from Paul J. Weiss titled
"Any Day of the Week Using the Doomsday Rule".
There is a bug there but I just can't find anyway to report it.
Anyone can point me to his email?
Thanks...

Just post a message in the forum for the article in which you obtained the source code.

The date/time shown for posted msgs or articles should follow GMT or atleast show the time zone tht it is following as it is confusing especially for far east CPians.

I am new to the forums and playing with the cfgs. I was wondering if there were any settings so the layout would be a vBulletin (or other popular BB's) style?
The current layout just feels unatural to me, like I was back in the late 90's with threaded BB systems. Trust me I do not miss those days
It is what is is!
