Bug
Submitted By: Kronikarz ( 244 days, 5 hours, 55 minutes ago )
I typed a question with this: "[dash]gasp[dash]", [dash] being of course replaced by the appropriate sign, and the rest of the question, including the word, was cut. http://www.questionville.com/Technology/Linux/Whats_so_good_about_Xgl After "in".
Submitted By: I wish I knew
Everything after dash character get ommited, I've had this problem many times. I hope they fix it, so I can post web sites with dashes.
Submitted By: Raptor235
the '-' problem has now been fixed :)
Submitted By: theantidote
Thanks for fixing that, it cut off basically my entire question because the first word had a - in it. It's cool that you're so active in the site's development.

Semi-colons are omitted
Submitted By: I wish I knew ( 244 days, 2 hours, 57 minutes ago )
Semi-colons being omitted has caused some of my comments/answers to become unintelligable for reading them.
Submitted By: I wish I knew
Even more so than my above evidenced poor grammer.

Voting
Submitted By: Tha-Flash ( 241 days, 3 hours, 30 minutes ago )
I can vote for myself, that doesn't seem right.

Great site by the way, added to favourites.
Submitted By: I wish I knew
I agree, voting for self seems skewing. Not that I mind terribly, since I may be the only who ever does vote for me haha.

Submitted By: let_me_see_here...
Submitted By: RavenLemon ( 240 days, 19 hours, 5 minutes ago )
Ok you can see that for at least half the post (Submitted By: let_me_see_here...). I though at the beginning that it was all the same author and reported him (spam). But its a bug. Also, when you are writing a new comment and there is already a comment for the same answer, your box has the same author then the previous comment. But in my case, it always return back to my name.
Submitted By: RavenLemon
weird, i can click "add comment", for each answers and a new text box appears. I dont think someone needs to be able to open 10 text box for comments.
Submitted By: RavenLemon
box #3
Submitted By: RavenLemon
I can open as many boxes as i want for the same question by clicking many times on add comment. Only the last box works.

Suggestion, not bug: Implement RSS
Submitted By: robwistar ( 244 days, 5 hours, 59 minutes ago )
I already posted this under someone's question before you posted this, sorry for the dupe.
Submitted By: Raptor235
not a problem I need to move all the bugs/ suggestions into the right questions anyway...

ordering...
Submitted By: toekneebullard ( 244 days, 5 hours, 51 minutes ago )
I don't like how it puts the most recent answers up at the top. It makes more sense for the first answer to be up top, the second second...so on and so forth. There should be an answer button on the fornt page.
Submitted By: I wish I knew
It seems based on number of picks on other than front page. It should be user selectable IMO.

Category counts are sometimes wrong
Submitted By: ross10s ( 244 days, 5 hours, 18 minutes ago )
Sometimes the top category does not equal the sum of the sub
Submitted By: ross10s
(repeating answer without using dashes) Sometimes the top category does not equal the sum of the subcategories and sometimes the subcategory count does not equal the sum of the questions.

spaces in nicknames
Submitted By: Surely You Jest ( 244 days, 5 hours, 15 minutes ago )
this is a question also. you are allowed nicknames with spaces, as mine is but your activation does not take that into account. I needed to add You Jest to get activation to work.

Submitted By: mbgb14 ( 244 days, 4 hours, 24 minutes ago )
When I posted a question a few mins ago it Showed up like this in Firefox. What the ****? Oh, and also, I had a picture of a magnifying glass, and the answers were totally unrelated. The answer being "loop" go figure.
Submitted By: Raptor235
that was a temporary problem and has been addressed... I'm not sure what you mean by the magnifying glass...
Submitted By: I wish I knew
The security picture of magnifying glass' answer is loop, makes little sense... I think that's what meant.

Big Problem: a dash terminates the input
Submitted By: ross10s ( 244 days, 4 hours, 54 minutes ago )
My first answer (also a bug) was terminated after 'sub' when I entered 'sub[dash]category'. This also happened when I tried to register with a dash in my email address.
Submitted By: Raptor235
the '-' problem has now been fixed :)

Not bug but feature
Submitted By: RandomSkratch ( 244 days, 4 hours, 37 minutes ago )
We should have the ability to mod up or down answers. Some of the answers I've come across are very immature and useless. Only the best answers should remain shown.
Submitted By: RandomSkratch
Oops I just saw the feature page. Ignore this.

Going back pages
Submitted By: RandomSkratch ( 244 days, 4 hours, 33 minutes ago )
When I view a question on page 4 (example) and then press back on the browser or press the back button on my mouse, I am sent back to page 1. Can this even be fixed?

Log In bug.
Submitted By: ( 241 days, 21 hours, 32 minutes ago )
If you are not logged in and click "add comment" if you don't type in a mail address or password then click log in, you get logged in anyway as 00.  Weirdliness.

Long URLS aren't handled properly
Submitted By: furst ( 240 days, 4 hours, 14 minutes ago )
Consider using something similar to vbulletin where long urls are automatically shortened on the surface.

links
Submitted By: superconnected ( 228 days, 19 hours, 33 minutes ago )
I've noticed that when someone puts links in their answers without using the full address (including http://), the system ends up handling it as a relative link, i.e. linking to www.questionville.com in this answer would end up actually linking to www.questionville.com/Technology/The_New_Web/www.questionville.com

example: Questionville

not a huge problem, but maybe just populating the link text box with http:// by default would help.

Profile not working for me
Submitted By: Anonymous.Lion ( 205 days, 12 hours, 2 minutes ago )
"In the user profile you can now see all the questions and answers that each user has contributed to." - All I see is the summary of how many questions, answers, and comments that I have posted.  (I initially signed up before this feature and am just now returning.)
Submitted By: Anonymous.Lion
p.s.  I really like what you have done since I initially signed up.  The one really big thing I see lacking is RSS for topics and or questions.
