Suggested Topics
Forum
- Forum Support: Increasing Adsense advice being sought. Not just on code placement but actual tactics. Why should we support Google ?
- *bump* Question:: Should all such *bump* posts - where NO additional information is added be removed ? (This is happening a lot recently and it's annoying so a calmer response is appreciated)
- IMO Bumps should be deleted
- Increased search results ? Paged maybe ?
- Tags: Status and Response (Mods can now remove tags --Podz 17:33, 4 Jun 2005 (UTC))
- Stickies. Are obviously not being read. We have had a huge increase in people posting reams of code, and increase in bumping, and increase in multiple postings. Propose: A single but concise sticky in each forum but NOT the 'How To...' forum. In that one will be more detail. make it concise. date the title for the stickies so others can see when updated. Hit the forum with all of them at once - Sunday nights are usually quiet and with a bit of help at the time, we can help any posts which are knocked back. I'll use what we have already to create the new ones and will try to get inout and a draft by the time most of you are reading this :) --Podz 16:16, 7 Jun 2005 (UTC)

Dates and Times are messed up on the forum. Freshness seems to work, but on the thread "Topic Started" seems to always say 18 hours or 12 hours ago when the topic started 2 minutes ago. Fixed?? --MDAWaffe - Talk 21:00, 8 Jun 2005 (UTC)
