    And you give out answers to newbies sometimes...
    But eh, we all have flaws (apparently ), so that's ok.
    Just try to be a little more serious instead

    Fair enough. Usually I only post when I get tired of doing homework or before work. So its an outlet for frustration at times. I don't mean to give out answers, by the way. I have been trying a bit harder to use more pseudo code (or just PHP/Pascal and Python/Pascal since to a newbie that is functionally useless to them anyway) but sometimes its I just write a quick blurb that turns out to be a fully functional answer.

    Don't know whether this is a bug or not.(though is a "strange" thing)
    But words longer than 49 characters are delimited by spaces.

    It's a feature. It's meant to stop you from messing up the forum layout by typing in a long, unbreakable word. Spaces are forcibly introduced every so often, which gives the browser the opportunity to break lines.

    That makes sense.

    Search is broken. Try searching for "input class", and you get this error:
    Fatal error: Allowed memory size of 33554432 bytes exhausted (tried to allocate 299056 bytes) in /home/cprogram/public_html/cboard/search.php on line 1158

    Thank you, search should be working again. (It actually worked for most terms, but I think 'input class' brought up so many results that it exhausted the available memory.)

    Various broken image links can be seen in the new forum features. This is clearly visible in the new user profiles and I'm sure in other places, as well. I'd imagine these are being in the process of being created and this might already be a known issue, I'm just putting it in writing.

    New members can't see profiles due to security concerns, but I don't see a reason not to allow someone to see their own profile.

    Advertisement overlays on posts interact bad with code boxes. The advertisement covers the text in the code box, which doesn't get its lines broken. (Safari)

    I assume webmaster is aware, but just in case... the site has been very slow, unreachable, or giving database errors off and on for the last couple days.

    I get an access denied error when trying to view a conversation among my visitor messages for some reason:

    Found another nit on one of the turorial pages

    Found a couple nits a few days ago on one of the tutorial pages... now I found another one. It is on the Initialization Lists page. The constructors are called Bar instead of Baz.
