Crafting Marks and MC Marks I am disappointed in the daily quest rewards which include marks and greater marks. I have 1134 marks and I am about to stop doing the daily quest because the reward is pointless. Why can't the marks convert into planar attunment...

What do you call the punctuation marks { and } ?
Braces? Curly brackets? Something else?

[ and ] are brackets or square brackets....
Curly braces.
"Braces" -- to me, "brackets" refers to [ and ] .
Curly Braces
" Braces ".
I write or type them when possible.
Curly brackets"
"Brackets"
I don't know, so I try to avoid calling them anything .

Just curious how is the .NET 4.0 CLR world going to call methods ending in question marks and exclamations? What will the syntax look like calling from C# or VB.NET?

The CLR allows a much larger set of characters to be included in type and member names than is typically available to most languages (such as C# and VB.... .
At a CLR level there is simply no problem.
I think you have to differentiate the cases a bit here .

This allows you to set a cache-expiration date for the asset far into the future, but still be able to instantly invalidate it by simply updating... .

Try something like this:

Take it as a byte array, and convert it to a displayable... .
Note that saving the encrypted result in a string will possibly result in loss of the data, so don't do that .
Yes, it's because you can't print the strings that are resulting from the encryption .

Ran across this line of code:
FormsAuth = formsAuth ?? new FormsAuthenticationWrapper();
What do the two question marks mean, is it some kind of ternary operator? It's hard to look up in Google.

FormsAuth = formsAuth ?? new FormsAuthenticationWrapper();
expands to:
FormsAuth = formsAuth != null ? formsAuth : new FormsAuthenticationWrapper();
which further expands... .
It's the null coalescing operator, and quite like the ternary (immediate-if) operator .

I can get it to remove all the question marks with the code below:
preg_replace('/(\?+)/', '', $string)
No matter what I seem to do I can't get it to also remove all the minus signs as well. Everything I try just breaks the whole regex.

Replace, or:
preg_replace('/[-?]/', '', $string)
That will remove any question marks or dashes.

I'm attempting to display some text in my program using (say) Windows GDI and some of the unicode characters are displayed as question marks? What is up?

Make sure that your program characters:
text sometimes appears as question marks
This occurs when Unicode data is converted to an 8-bit converted to question marks....
Can't be converted to ANSI, they are converted to question marks.
