    Thumbs down

    Is it just me, or is there anybody else out there that has so many posts with no replies?

    I posted a question about Transactions this afternoon, and guess what, no replies! That must be about my 15th post without a reply. In the end I manage to work it out myself but I think I may be really stuck this time.

    There should definately be a zero replies forum!

    you could try posting the message twice or even three times to get everyone's attention. On top of that, you could make it in capital letters.

    I tend to go for the ones that have no replies but people seem to be asking things I don't know.

    I suggested in the forum feedback a while back, that there should be a zero replies forum, where any posts that get no answers every day or two are automatically put into, so that the unanswered questions get answered. I think I'll bring it up again with an alternative.

    Sam, seems weird that their are some questions you can't answer with some of the advice I've seen you give.

    I don't tend to just look at the zero replies as the only unanswered questions, as how many times have you posted something for someone to reply with something totally meaningless, as they have misunderstood the question.

    I don't tend to get 0 replies, i have of couse a lot of them but heres my problem:
    People seems to misunderstand me. I'm always trying to explain everything very clear but i think i should try to give some examples or somthing that highlights my problem. Or else i will get a simple answer to a related problem that people think i didn't know. And when it's not a 0 replies post anymore, its hard to get others to look at that so it ends up posting a new one.

    writing haskell makes your life easier:
    reverse (p (6*9)) where p x|x==0=""|True=chr (48+z): p y where (y,z)=divMod x 13

    I know exactly what you mean. I've just posted an idea in the Feedback Forum which I think would get around this problem.

    Looks like this is your first post. Welcome to the forums, but this is an old thread. If you have a question, post it in a new thread, please.
