Did you notice that it is still getting confused (differently) further down?
On the line:
string firmwarePath = System.IO.Path.Combine(appPath, "Firmware\\");
It seems to not believe the string is ended and colors the remaining code as if in a string.

Hi,
I have just posted an article and each time the zip file I included is re-downloaded it is corrupted. It was fine earlier before release. I have re-uploaded the file once, it shows 1MB, but when re-downloaded it is 29Kb, and corrupted.
Here is the article:
C# WPF Dependency Injection Data Demo[^]
Any ideas.
Thanks,
Baxter.

I'm experiencing the same problem with my article Google Translator[^] which was updated on 9 March 2014. See this[^] thread.

Mmmh nope, this cannot happen. His account can be closed if too many people would report him, but nobody but from the staff can directly close an account.
It would not surprise me that he finally got reported, since he's been playing with the limits of trolling for a while now. 
Anyway ... his account is not closed (anymore?).

What he posted in the Lounge was in no way trolling. It's better than 90% of the drivel that gets posted there. Did he post anything else there that I somehow missed because I frequent CP on a daily basis?

Do not get me wrong, I am with you for this last post. But I do have examples where he was trolling; I first blamed it on culture/language, but it was definitely not the case...
Oh well, this is already too much philosophy on yet another subject that does not deserve it  Let's go play outside !

Perhaps, but we all have trolled at times, like my recent escalade that tore us apart.  However, he's one of the lesser ones in my opinion and I seem to recall you defending Erudite_Eric just this week, and MMM is tamer.
I'm heading out at my usual time of 2 PM. Early to work, early to leave.

I have nothing against him (actually I never really had anything against anyone, AFAIR), was only trying to explain the behaviour of the herd.
I'll follow your example : Late to work, early to leave (there is no need being late twice a day  ).

Never thought it was you. Just surprised that you thought MMM was a troller, but justified EE, even though I don't think he is one either.
Nice quote. I hope you practice it daily.

 We can definitely close accounts.

"nobody but from the staff"
I included you in the staff. 
[Edit] Or does the phrase "nobody but someone" mean exactly the opposite of what I intended to say ? I meant "nobody apart from the staff can close accounts.". [This ten seconds of English idioms formulation were kindly given to you by the GYGRO, get your grammar right! Organisation].

I'm doubling the number of reports needed to close an account.
I'm on the fence with this one though. Some people simply cause a lot of needless running around for the sake of causing a lot of needless running around.

Unfortunately, a lot of people just jump on the bandwagon in complaining about someone on something when they see others do it too. Similarly, everyone starts playing childish games like "who walked where in the morning seeing what" (yesterday's Lounge posts or before) and building up post after post after post of drivel. It's mob mentality whichever direction it's going. However, if someone doesn't like it, they should just ignore it.
Maybe it's time to add a blocked list for users so that we can avoid drivel from people. I'm sure I'll make the cut too.

There's a reason I don't frequent the lounge much anymore. There are still some great post but they do get lost in the drivel. I still like the forums though.
|

Same here too. Cheers !!!

|

As far as I'm concerned, some people should be stripped of the right to report.

I'm also on the fence here: doubling the time to close an account is a PITA because it at least doubles the time it takes so kick the Love Guru back to where he belongs...
Perhaps what we need is a graduated Kick? Similar to the graduated effect of an up or down vote?

Is this the same as the term 'Weight' used here[^]?

No, no, no.
"Weight" is the right word...

 Alright. Then you have to decide which category you will determine the Weight from. It seems obvious to do that based on the Organiser level, but there are a lot of Platinum Organisers out there.
I was looking at the Privileges tab. It does not show what it takes to be able to report a member profile, but if it follows the "Report a forum message" privilege, perhaps simply raising the Debator level needed could alleviate some of these cases.

Unfortunately that means it is more difficult to remove the real spammers. Could we not have weighted voting on the spam button?
|
|
|
|
|
Not even more difficult but it may also let accounts of article spammers stay active. When a spam article has been rejected the member account is not visible anymore if the article has not been reported in the Spam and Abuse Watch forum.

Weighted voting will actually make the issue worse.
