Time to share more to us!
//Quality is a relative term.. not relative to time only but relation to individuals
The true is I don't know General downtick as I left, I haven't come here often at all.
Like I said...A troll But, I do have to say that Brad didn't let the moderators moderate
and he never listened to what anyone said. Period. Nothing, what was the point?

Kirants, given that I was a person that heavily 'rated' you early on , did you not see the
rush to post the same thing over and over in the same thread? Are we not technical here? Why
do I have to go thru twenty fraeking posts about the same thing when reading a thread? come
on, you see this?

Ya, well some moderators *cough, cough* tried that and got called out for it.

Andreas had left as well. I think that there is no question that the quality of the
discussions has degraded. There are some exceptions in the non-visual C++ forum.

Ya, well we miss you, and your little dog too!!!

I heard that one myself, ovidiucucu. Hell, I even thought I was dead 'til I found out it was
just that I was in Nebraska. --The Unforgiven.

Good day,
Xeon.
Sorry, fark codeproject, bunch of non-coders Stay here, lets fix this thing.

Come on, let's be honest!
*lol* you are confusing me with someone else. I never had the 'please please rate me sig'.
BTW, weren't you part of the romanian group along with CIlU that we busted for cross-rating?
Thought so? Should I write a tell all about that? Shh...it's a mod secret.

*lol* what did I miss? *lol* come now, this is heavy sarcasm here, why are you guys farking

Re: Has CG gone to the crapper?
It looks like it is more of encapsulation at moderator levels.. that I guess we commoners don't have a clue... No meaningful discussion can happen here with us coz of that... It's better you guys discuss amongst yourselves... Don't know how open things can be but without that its meaningless debating with us... we don't have a say coz we don't have a clue
The point is more than just reps and ads!

Let me give you a Cilu See early on, there were karma dumpers, the romanians. Ovi, cilu, etc...all from the same IP,/Company. Had to ban three of them, but those three provided me with a negative rate dump, so I could positive the real contributors...So eh...What's that guys, oh, you didn't know them *lol*. Ya, ratings...moderators...ya...G's up...right?
Or was it a sixer? You guys had a good round-robin...six up, six down. You know the score.
So, ratings, what?

Well, the fact that we didn't agree on some issues doesn't mean I hated you
About the rep system, I have to say that my opinion has changed and that in the beginning I thought it was a nice gadget. Probably a bit naive, because I had never used a forum with rep points before. Now I don't see any use in it anymore. I still don't think it's bad or that it degrades the quality of CG, it's just not useful.
Ups: sorry for posting after it had been closed.

Get this small utility to do basic syntax highlighting in vBulletin forums (like Codeguru) easily.
Supports C++ and VB out of the box, but can be configured for other languages.

What the hack are you talking about? You should be careful with what you are saying. I never used multiple IDs, 'cilu' is the only usename I have created at CG. Moreover, I'm very positive that I never rated you negatively. So, don't post false things.
