I'd like to request turning off the line numbers. They ruin the ability to easily copy code from the thread listing (yeah you can click on QUOTE and then copy) because the line numbers end up in the code. I don't see that they are used that often or effectively to refer to code.

I've turned them off for now. Seemed to copy ok for me in FF 1.5/Linux
I think we're gonna need to have a discussion among the mods about the [syntax ] tags. They clearly need a lot of work
The line numbers thing I totally agree with. I just tried to copy/paste some code from here to use/edit and I had to go through 30 lines of code deleting the 1. 2. 3.....30. very annoying!
Discussion with the mods? Vote for it among the users! Democracy yes?
Yeah, the line numbers look ok but they are a hassle when trying to copy code, maybe the could be placed in a separate div that floats left or something so they are not included in copy operations.
