I think I am going to ask you guys to try and refrain from posting new problems in forums as a rule of thumb. The reason being that a problem posted in the forum will not be properly added to the database, and thus will not be counted for all the site's purposes. For example, it will not be "credited" tot he poster, and will not count towards a user level quota. It will not come up as an "oldie", or as a "random" problem. It will never be the problem of the day, which is perplexus' way of letting users sydicate our contents. And it won't come up in search results (which is probably more of a defficiency on the part of the site's code, but that's just how it is for now)

So I would appreciate it if you would submit any new problems through the site's submission process. While it may sometimes take a while for the problem to be voted through the queue, once it is, it will be the top problem on the site for at least a day, making sure that it gets a lot of exposure and discussion.

Sorry if this seems rather harsh.

- administration. :)

Levik:

Firstly, your comment isn't harsh it's restating what are (to most) the well understood rules of your site - it's no different to asking guests not to smoke in your house, or more to the point telling them bluntly to put that damn cigarette out when you have beforehand politely asked them not to smoke.

Secondly, the fact that the search function doesn't look in the forums for problems is because they shouldn't be there. It is not a deficiency of the siteis code, it is a deficiency in the ability of some guests to have the courtesy of following the sites rules.

Finally, please keep up the good work. This is an outstanding site that brings much pondering and amusement to many honoured guests.

Keep smiling,

Fwaff
