    It's time to allow for moderators (privileged forum users) to be able to delete spam.

    Most of the succesful forums/boards/whatever have this. Just not SQLServerCentral.

    I think as...

  • RE: Please vote for the "built in Tally Table" function.

    Voted as 174.

    I'd like to see this, if for no other reason than it makes vandalism harder and it's trivial to implement. A DMV that has 32B (int's worth) could...

  • RE: Conversion of Date from legacy systems with 7 and 6 digit format to DD/MM/YYYY format

    I love the function of just adding values together, though I feel uneasy that it might not work in 2100 and beyond. Course, not sure we need to plan on...

    A question for Steve: what is the ratio of US-based registrants to non-US-based registrants for SQL Server Central?

  • RE: Indexes

    Clustered index is a book. The works in the order in the book are the index. Nonclustered indexes are the index in the back of the book. Selected...

  • RE: How Often Does Production Drift?

    Andrew..Peterson (11/24/2014)

    Iwas Bornready (11/24/2014)

  • RE: Are the posted questions getting worse?

    Yep, hundreds of spam posts and I realize its frustrating. Believe me, since I end up managing them on the weekends, its annoying.

    And VPN is down, so I can't even...

  • RE: Are the posted questions getting worse?
