They're now Borg?

Do they assimilate with their stingers? If you are assimilated by a bee-org does the individual bee die? Do they assimilate saying to bee or not to bee?
And are the Borg any good at tennis?

Wasn't one of them a Wimbledon champion?
They also seem to have unlimited capacity for inducting individuals into the hive.

Before the bees were assimilated?
I never knew that bees had such devastating back-hands.

There exists at least one Borg who is (or was) good at tennis.

The drones at data centres tend to use more buzzwords than bees, though.

Perhaps it's only a coincidence that it seems like it's no coincidence.

Was just attempting to help with approving some articles and the first one I chose contained plagiarism from wikipedia without any citation and was basically just a cobbled together thing to insure the person was published? However, it really didn't explain the technology.
What is the point of this? Do people think there is some kind of fame or fortune which comes from publishing on CodeProject?
Newton Saber says: I just don't understand what someone could get out of publishing an obviously terrible, short, poorly explained article on CodeProject.
Does anyone understand it?

It seems to be a status thing. There are a certain type of people who think that people (potential employers perhaps?) will be impressed by quantity of articles published, rather than quality. There's a reason we have a moderation queue. Unfortunately, the employees of one company in particular seem to be really prolific in trying to publish plagiarised articles.

Thanks for the explanation. Just thought it was crazy and wondered why anyone would think they'd get something out of such mindless blather and plagiarism.

Because there exist some employers who consider such rubbish contributions.

I'm just guessing - but it's an educated guess - that the "author" works for a company called Mindfire in India.
Apparently, the company doesn't pay extra to people who get something, anything, published - but you wouldn't believe that if you saw the level of submissions from that company in the last couple of weeks. Plagiarism is the norm, combined with an obvious lack of any understanding of the subject matter. There's been quite a few references to the company in "Spam and Abuse" recently and I think and number of accounts have been closed already.
See here: http://www.codeproject.com/Messages/4931170/OT-silly-question.aspx[^]
It may generate a new CP meme! "Mindfire" : "to witlessly copy or post rubbish."

That is exactly right. I was just curious about it and figured someone in here would know.
Thanks for the explanation.
Very funny new meme. I'm all for it.

Yeeesh. Hopefully Tadit can convince his officemates to stop orking the cows. 
Did you ever see history portrayed as an old man with a wise brow and pulseless heart, waging all things in the balance of reason?
Is not rather the genius of history like an eternal, imploring maiden, full of fire, with a burning heart and flaming soul, humanly warm and humanly beautiful?

Hopefully; at the moment they aren't doing the company image any favours...

This is really embarassing for the company as well as the people doing good. Scrutinization has been started and seminars would also be conducted by Tadit regarding how and what material should be posted in this forum.

Yes, I can believe that.
It looks like an orchestrated campaign to "get the company name noticed" - and if so, it has worked beyond somebodies wildest dreams. Just not in the direction they hoped...
It's a problem, I suspect: it's very difficult to get a good reputation, but a bad one can follow you for years...and be created in an instant (or a couple of weeks in this case).
