I like the puzzle (since it's related to my admin tasks ) ... however, you have to take into account that there may be more correct answers (depending on settings I mentioned above)

off to "Others"

reminds me of SEO (Search Engine Optimization) that I have to perform

Mekal and ThunderChicken are suspended from this forum for 48 hours (both received a warning)

the rules are clear and have more pros than cons ... rene83 explained it quite well

off to "Comments and Suggestions" I can change display name ... I advise not to change it though, since you have more than 300 posts and are known in this forum as "taliesin"

true, I have received a few mails from original authors ... but luckily it ended with giving credits to them or taking their copyright content down from this site

to all: stop using capitals for whole sentences (I have pm'd EPISTAXIS as well) to brandonb: don't abuse signature (I have edited the yours)

you're welcome

I've been thinking about that for quite a while ... however, right now I don't have the time to study the OpenSocial API which could be used to create such applications

nice ... and I thought that my google toolbar button is forgotten

add reply - browse - upload - manage - insert admin/mods

PM attachments are not allowed for regular members

off to "Other Mind Boggling Stuff on the web"

thanks for the offer, we might try a few things later to do more important changes than the ones mentioned in this topic

I see now ... you are right I have not found any way to change that

voting indefinitely could distort the total rating normal members should always see "your rating" and "total rates" I have tried with another "normal member" account and "total rates" is visible

1) your rating and total rates are visible 2) no (not for regular members) 3) what symbols show up as "?"? 4) you are welcome

Welcome to the Den, peace*out. If you haven't already done so, read the sticky in the red box titled "Important: READ BEFORE POSTING", especially the part about performing searches before posting riddles. In this case had you performed a search for "puddle +water" (without the quotes) you would only have had to look through a few posts.

alexa statistics are based on alexa toolbar users only, whereas my Google Analytics account tracks all visits I have added it to orkut (and that's just 1 of many changes in the past ... I am still working on improvements)

CL, well written (mature BD member style ) thread locked

this topic reminds me of Thomas Malthus "The power of population is so superior to the power of the earth to produce subsistence for man, that premature death must in some shape or other visit the human race. The vices of mankind are active and able ministers of depopulation. They are the precursors in the great army of destruction, and often finish the dreadful work themselves. But should they fail in this war of extermination, sickly seasons, epidemics, pestilence, and plague advance in terrific array, and sweep off their thousands and tens of thousands. Should success be still incomplete, gigantic inevitable famine stalks in the rear, and with one mighty blow levels the population with the food of the world."

one of my favorites ... I admit searching for this one is difficult, however, it's already posted (by me ) with long discussion thread locked

off to "Others" let me know if you want any changes in this poll btw, geo statistics for the past 30 days (for the whole web brainden.com, including non-forum pages, Slovak version and excluding Google gadgets) is in the attached xls file ... 200 countries ... that could be broken down to city level, languages, browsers used, time spent on this site, page views per visit etc. (Google Analytics offers many useful data) Google_Analytics_brainden.com_20080718_20080817__GeoMapReport_.zip
