5. Tell recipients how to opt out of receiving future email from you. Your message must include a clear and conspicuous explanation of how the recipient can opt out of getting email from you in the future. Craft the notice in a way that’s easy for an ordinary person to recognize, read, and understand. Creative use of type size, color, and location can improve clarity. Give a return email address or another easy Internet-based way to allow people to communicate their choice to you. You may create a menu to allow a recipient to opt out of certain types of messages, but you must include the option to stop all commercial messages from you. Make sure your spam filter doesn’t block these opt-out requests.
The key phrase here is "you must include the option to stop all commercial messages from you" which we most definitely do. We provide a link to your settings page where you can unsub yourself, and the unsubscribe page itself has a "Remove my account entirely" box that will remove you completely.

A colleague has been an user (lurker) of CP for a few years and it looks like he's accidentally stumbled on my profile. He asked me what's all those three bulleted points on my profile.
Can't blame him, because it doesn't say "award" or "winner" anywhere. (for example, 1 Jan 2010: CodeProject MVP 2010). Three years of it in the past, and it hasn't struck me. I think if awards and prizes that a member has won should be indented, and must be put under a small section like "Awards won" or "Awards or recognitions"; and this should ideally be slightly separated from the biography text that the user may have added.

Kind of a moot point, really, considering the cake is a lie.

I do not know if this is the correct place as Bugs and Suggestions did not seem correct.
I opted out of the new Web newsletter (at least it said it was new). I got -50 points, but I do not see +50 for starting it. As I never selected it I do not know when to look for the 50 but I did look back a couple of days.
Just curious.

I went to the safari park with my father at the weekend.
We were discussing the mating habits of the different animals when I said to him "Do these buffaloes mate for life?".
He said "They're bison".
I said "Well, it's a free world dad".
Every man can tell how many goats or sheep he possesses, but not how many friends.

You probably got the original 50 way back. It won't show up in your recent history.
The newsletter points are not that good since they don't give you credit for each newsletter you receive. So unless you really want those newsletters, I'd unsubscribe since they don't mean a lot in the overall scope of the rep score system.

This is a bug. I will fix.
Points have been added to your rep history to mark the initial subscription event, but I will have to resync our tables to get your total points correctly attributed.

I think you need to recognize people who stay subscribed for a long time. Something like every month of staying subscribed gets them 100 points, or maybe 25 points per delivered newsletter (email bounce verified).

Using IE8:
0) The pre-block pop-up pops up when your mouse is hoevered over the answer textbox control, and only goes away when your mouse leaves the control.
1) When I try to submit an answer, it asks me if I'm sure I want to leave the page, and doesn't submit my answer (yes, I'm saying it's okay t leave the page).

In addition to this, the right panel where we can see the sponsored links, top experts in the last 24 hours and the last month part, is appearing on the solution part so it is blocking the textbox where you enter your solution. It is in the middle so I can not see the whole textbox because of this. I can still type my solution though but can not able to submit it ( which is asking me "are you sure to navigate away?" question..) when i click "ok" nothing happens. I have win 7 and IE 8.0.7601.17514
