Re: hello everybody

Sure you can. Even though I've tried myself but it didn't work. It might do now though.

Re: hello everybody

Of course you can get help.

A bumping rule might have to be introduced. Let's say; If you don't get helped within 48 hours you may bump your thread back up again? That's just a suggestion, but it may fail to work because of the massive amounts of spam it could or would cause.

Re: hello everybody

Hi suha! And Welcome.

Devanté: That sounds fair. Sometimes the questions get lost in the snow.

(Lots of questions do get answered, but it is all voluntary of course.)

Re: hello everybody

A possibly more efficient way of doing things would be to introduce new types of post icons.

Right now, there's a blue box next to any topic that has new posts in it. In the same place where that goes, some kind of icon could be introduced to indicate that "this topic is unresolved". All topic in Help Me would start off like that, and then once the topic creator is happy that his problem has been solved, he can tick a box somewhere to get rid of that icon. It'd probably be best if moderators had that ability as well, in case the topic creator forgets to or something.

Would this be possible to implement?

It wanted to be normal.

Exactly! And if the same problem is resolved in another thread, then simply link thread 2 to thread 1, or even better, cross them into a third thread and delete the 2 original treads, then you give the author of thread 3 the matrix A=[author1, author2], so that you don't have to have like -A MILLION- threads. Whatcha say?

The thread name could also be a matrix: you simply give every post in thread 3 its origin at top ie. the thread name in other words topic.

A moderator could also give every cross thread a cathegory name of his likeing.

Yes, but we're talking about improving it. The system could be abused, like I said before.

Re: hello everybody

I'm not sure, that area is reserved for mathematics or physics...you could probably ask them in the Guestbook.
