I've temporarily fixed the file. It's a little outdated, I'll email the author to get a newer one.
Thanks,

Dear Team,
For some reason I am not able to post any message in 'General Indian Topics' even replies. No sooner I post a message than it disappears with an automatic text 'Message Removed'.
I don't know if it is because I have been little inactive for a while and hence email needs verification or something like that. Any clues?
Or anything related to posting IP? Since I am logged on from work computer the ip address resolves to the location as California (USA).

Probably, your messages have been picked up by the anti-spam system and sent to moderation - which requires a human to review and approve / reject the content.
If they do not contain spam or abuse, then they should be approved pretty quickly - though slower at present than normal due to the holiday season.
If they do, then expect your account to close equally quickly!

You mean to say that
'Message Removed'
Message Removed
text is purely a placeholder till a moderation queue is processed? If that is the case would it be more user-friendly to have a contextual message like 'Message en-queued for moderation' (Perhaps similar to Wordpress Comment Moderation)

Thank you for the clarification.

I just found out from my profile (Messages Posted) there is a text called
Not publicly visible
Now the tricky situation here is,how to edit the message? At least till moderation the message should at least be visible to the owner for any editing right?

Nope.
Once you press post, that's it until it becomes publicly available: otherwise spammers could just edit and edit until they get it through without moderation.
And you would not believe how much cr@p a spam farm can generate in an hour!

It's a known problem, reported a few posts below this one.

I am not able to upvote/downvote any messages. I was able to do that some days back.
Even after confirming my email address, i am not able to upvote/downvote.
What could be the reason?

Have you logged out / back in? Might be worth a try

Alex: Fix it? How you gonna fix this?
Skipper: Grit, spit and a whole lotta duct tape.

I see only the solution from OG. No comments...

I let a message through moderation. It was a post to the author of an article to fix the broken download. From looking at another post in the article forum, it has been broken for a while.
I see messages like that from time to time, so I decided to open the article in "Update Article" mode to see if there was anything I could do, but it looks like you need to be closer to the hamsters.

Markdown links [look like](this). I don't want CodeProject transforming pasted code at all, but it's especially annoying when pasting a link because CodeProject doesn't give the option of NOT transforming the link into a giant messy HTML blob. Please make "Paste as-is" the default, at least in Markdown mode.
And say, have you noticed that pasting even 40 lines of code is quite slow? Or that Preview seems to stop working after pasting a code block?

In my profile settings an option there is,
that says "paste as text", no messy HTML links.
|
|
|
|

Is that a rant or a suggestion?
In any case, Markdown pasting is improved.
When pasting code the system will try and sniff out what you're pasting (by sending it to the server) so it can create appropriate PRE tags.
There's definitely scope to improve this and/or make it client side.
