This may be a little confusing -
I used to have an account with my work email. I disabled that account and went with my personal email instead. I wanted to switch the daily/weekly newsletter emails to my work email and I got an error because that account already exists. When trying to change my old work email account password it said my account could not be found. How can I permanently disable my old work email account, or would I be able to access it again?
Thanks,
David

Can you please email me (chris at codeproject) the old work email address to which you'd like to switch your current account to?

Some one marked this message[^] as spam/abusive but it's not. And lost 20. Actually he(Platinum debator) was down-voting my posts regularly(couple of months back) & I think he's back from vacation.
Here my suggestion is Mark the post as spam or abusive(reduce -20) when more than one user reported otherwise just reduce the debator points(which is regular action).

Not a bad idea...

I disagree. Inappropriate posts can be buried within article forums and only seen by the author. I know of several very specific cases where a member went on an abusive spree but only the individual authors were aware.

Just let me tell you that if the one downvoting you is platinum member than it's not the one who reported your post. Your post is reported by a new member. I faced the same thing[^], you see. If platinum member reports your post, you'll get -160, which DD is recently shouting about.

I came here to ask about the four waiting in the moderation queue. The latest one is quite decent, it seems unlikely that the author made a mistake with the category. Looks like some bug spray might come in handy...

What are you seeing in those articles that I'm not? They seem fine.

We have a bug. I made the mistake of coding while sober last night. I have a bottle of red in front of me and will get the issue fixed tonight.

Yeah, Cabernet Sauvignon - the ultimate bug killer!

After bookmarking an article, the bookmark (star) icon switches from showing '+' to showing a 'v' sign.
But after refreshing the page, this indication disappears and the original "Add bookmark" behavior returns (making it impossible to know that the page is already bookmarked).

This is called expediency. To indicate whether you had bookmarked a given item would require an extra database call for each page view so we punted and left it non-indicating on page refresh.

Got it. Thanks for the clarification (and for the new word to my vocabulary  )

Here a bunch of things which I have been experiencing for about a week:
- Clicking on the "New Message" Button in a forum does not always work. When it does not work, I must reload the page.
- The site returns "Unexpected behavior CP returned something"-ish kind of messages when posting. Sometimes my post does really appear on the forum, sometimes not.
- The CSS loads completely only every other time, meaning I have to reload the page to get it properly displayed.
Is it only me ?
