I'll have to start doing that. I really need the rep points.

You are now 3rd in the rep score table, just a 100 or so points behind John who's in 2nd place.

yes, a shoot-out for second place is imminent.
BTW: what a shameless plug.

No, you don't need the rep points that's for sure. However, I do. So I think that useless drivel is on my agenda for the week ahead.

You're telling me! Only 180 enquirer points, 1 question asked in nearly eight years, if I was Chris I'd kick you off for your lack of contribution.

Can you cite any examples for us?

I really don't want to drag any users under the bus if my hypothesis isn't correct, but I'll give a couple links as reference to why I'm asking?
This is what I would expect a normal profile to look like. He answers a good number of questions and gets votes on a small percentage of those answers as expected.
Suspicious is what I would refer to this member as. Even though there are a couple of 1 votes thrown in there, he has amazing karma to receive multiple votes on pretty much every answer he provides. This just doesn't seem plausible to me.
I didn't keep track of a couple others like this that I found yesterday, I had to dig again to find this guy.

Well, he's just outright rude. I deleted a couple of his comments, but I don't have time to go through everything he's done.

It's not the rudeness that I have issues with. I figure we're all adults and as such we're bound to run into people like that out there in life. I just found the up votes he gets on his posts and rather suspicious.
BTW. Thanks for taking the time.

I did it because his profile claims he's "always professional". When you tell someone to go f*ck themselves, I think that's a pretty wide step away from "professional". He's a putz.

I don't know. "Professional" athletes say that to each other all the time.
I'm in total agreement with you, BTW!

Here[^] is one more. All his answers are voted, though I think I have seen a couple of good answers from him before. But all answers voted high makes me curious.

Typical answer[^], I have deleted some but I'm getting bored.

That's incredible - I don't think I've ever seen a negative Authorship score before
I guess his Authority is appropriate, though... 666
Real men don't use instructions. They are only the manufacturers opinion on how to put the thing together.

It seems the emssage is getting through to him reasonably clearly by looking at the scores on his answers.

I just approved an entry in Tips & Tricks as I felt (but others may not) that the author had followed the rules correctly. This reminded me of a rant in the Lounge a few weeks ago when someone took exception to an article being accepted and asked "who the *** accepted this?". Do others think that our names should be added to the page somewhere to indicate who accepted the article and when?
Just say 'NO' to evaluated arguments for diadic functions! Ash

Is there any reason why ASP.NET tag is default when searching through articles ?
I try to remove it, everything is working fine, but when i come back to site it coming back again as default.
Its quite annoying...

Is it not just a case of unchecking ASP.NET and then clicking the 'update filter' button?

When you visit the homepage there is a dropdown next to the tabs for Articles, messages etc. It might say "ASP.NET". You can change this. (Yes, it's unintuitive. I will fix  )

At first I thought it must be April 1st when the Article in The Insider with the sub-title "This is not the code you are looking for" here[^] gave a '404 - File or directory not found' error, but then I checked my calendar and realized that it must be a hamster malfunction.

The problem is we post links to items and sometimes the item gets removed between the time we send the newsletter and you read it.

I realize that but thought that you folks might like to know about it.
It was also quite ironic, given the sub-title used.
