So fast to go off topic...
Maybe in the next forum version that gets rolled out, we can have an alert system.
Alert notifications should be bluntly obvious, (like the pm notification).
Alerts should be set off on threads you are quoted in, if you have alerts on.
Also, isn't this part a bit useless:
User Control Panel > Edit Account Settings > ?
Another shitty fact is that when uploading an avatar, HTS completely disrupts any alpha channels by filling it in with a black background. This should also be fixed, and hopefully also allow higher quality images.

It would be nice if the programming challenges (or at least the forum sections for them) had links (possibly user created) and references to things that will help the user complete the challenge. The challenges don't give any information about where to go about learning the information necessary to completing the task; it simply describes the task and leaves the user to figure out the rest on their own (which really isn't such a bad thing, but if we do this with other missions, we should here as well).
--
For code blocks on the forums, it would be nice to use something like the github API instead. It looks amazing, can be tweaked, and you can link everything from your github.
I would also like to see the ability to play youtube embedded videos here.
For images, can we migrate to something like gravatar?
--
Articles should be editable. After each edit, have a box describing what the update was for. The modified article then has to go through the normal review process before being pushed live again.
--
Clicking a forum link with another SSID attached while logged in should not log you out
--
Remove the use of user ID's to gather some information, as it can cause conflicts with usernames and wrong link locations from user's.
--
Can't change your e-mail associated attached to forum profile
--
Possibly add in the use of Gravitar for avatar hosting.
For those that know
