How hard would this be?
When a message is deleted, and it has one or more replies, replace it with an empty/unviewable message.
This would reduce confusion when viewing a suddenly headless thread.

Good idea Shog. My humble suggestion to Chris would be not to delete the db record, but simply to replace the body with placeholder text. "This message deleted by Joe Schmoe" or similar.

1. Too technical
2. Just right
3. Not tech enough
4. I only attend if I'm a speaker/vendor now...

The few they have in my area (none in the past few years that I've heard about) have been excellent, but lacking in depth. A little less overview, and more details about practical application of the info would be nice. I agree, this would be a good weekly poll topic - let's see how everyone else feels about it. Of course, someone will post the obligatory CListCtrl reponse.;)

What do you mean by "MS event"? Does this include all conferences, labs, MVP days etc that are run by Microsoft? Or conferences and events about MS technology but not run by MS (eg VSLive)?
cheers,

I was referring to things like: MSDN Essentials, Tech Ed, Devdays / MS Connect.

Haven't attended one yet, but will be out there next year. 
What's it like?

So where's option #5 - Tech enough... if by "tech" you mean "VB gushing"?
Oh, and why is this in the suggestions forum?

Nope. He's a Saffa. 
We have quite a few MSDN Essential workshops and other Microsoft events here in Johannesburg. I used to work in the building right next door to Microsoft so we used to just walk to the events. 
Despite the high cost of living, it remains popular.

I once went to an MS 'event' in South Africa. It was the introduction/presentation of Windows XP. Not really tech but still quite interesting.

How about a discussion area dedicated to UML Modeling?

I third it and our UML designer fourths it.

A significant percentage of newbie posters systematically forget to check this option on, so that their snippets of code are unreadable. My proposal tries to remedy this while having the least impact on more seasoned users:
- This option is a user profile dependent config option.
- Existing users keep their status quo (i.e. the option is initially set off
for them.) - Starting from the date the patch is applied, new users will have the option set on by default.
- Every time an user posts a message, the option used (set on/set off) gets saved to her profile as the default for subsequent posts.
What do you think of this? Regards

good idea
for me the best solution would be that the parser will not handle html tags inside the <pre> and <code> sections
|
|
|
|
|
I wouldn't like to be deprived of the possibility of embedding tags inside <pre> sections. It allows me to write things like:
Change the function declaration to
extern object clone(<font color=ff0000>const</font> object& x);
Furthermore, newbies usually paste the code without any <pre> (they probably don't know this can be used.)
