Is it me, or is it you? They are arriving every 3 to 5 minutes for the past hour.

I'm getting them, too. I just sent an e-mail to the webmaster, and this has also been reported on the Spam and Abuse Watch forum. Pretty much every 5 minutes. (And there's another one...)

The CodeProject Server is slamming my Email Inbox the same as you! Every 5 Minutes! You NEED to get a handle on this problem ASAP!

Ditto .I don't want. To report as spam

We seem to have had a race condition the could result in sending multiple copies of the newsletter.
I've fixed the bug.
Sorry for the irritating Newsletter behavior. Bad, Bad Newsletter!!

This is going on with me as well! Already deleted over 30 of the "same" email newsletters from Code Project! Web Developer Newsletter - IntelliTask - An Alternative Windows Version to the Famous Task Manager. Still getting one about every 4 to 5 minutes. Your server is going berserk!!!

This is the wrong place to raise this, you need to talk to admins who can do something about it.
Normally, I'd say go here: Bugs and Suggestions[^] but I'll summon the Mage:
@Chris-Maunder
Can you have a look please?
It's not happening to me, but it seems a little excessive...

Our apologies. A race condition crept into the code that only happens at startup, and due to multiple deploys this morning this race condition seems to have kicked in big time.
We're fixing (and I'll move this thread to Bugs and Sugs)
cheers

Someone needs to pull the plug. I am still getting these every 5 min.

I like using custom CSS stylesheets (via Stylus Add-on) to enforce dark theme across the world wide web.
html, #newtab-window {background: #020202 !important}
* {color: #ddd !important; background-color: transparent !important;}
img {opacity: .7 !important; transition: opacity .2s}
img:hover, a:hover img {opacity: 1 !important; background-color: #bbb !important}
Surprisingly 90% of internet works quite well with this. But there are the occasional websites that force white background via !important.
Example is What is difference of using string as hardcoded value vs string constant[^] with this style entry:
.container-entry {background-color: #fff !important;}
Please reserve !important only for your developers or end-users, but never in production.
PS: Your the first website I decided to actually tell of such usage. Also I think dedicated "dark modes" is generally a waste. As those are still something you must explicitly look for and enable. Whereas end-user CSS customizations apply implicitly and globally.

I'm flattered we're the first!
We're currently redoing our CSS from the ground up so things like this will be corrected. We may also add a Dark mode (to be decided). For me it's not a waste if there are specific colours we wish to use in a dark mode to ensure branding and display look good. It also saves people having to worry about their own custom styles. Plus, it's a CSS thing now (sorta).

I was just checking because he has been reporting.
His rep history[^] is pretty weird.
I suppose he will be nuked, but wanted to let you know in case you want to dig

Since the drop is in the participant category, could it just be that he has opted-out a few newsletters.

There is no "opt-in" part in the graphic. He starts at "0" and goes up slowly. When you opt-in for all things you start with 300 points.

If I recall correctly, it hasn't always been so. The account is old so could it be possible that when the amount of items you can opt-in has grown over time, they have been automatically added to existing accounts without adding corresponding points? This would explain why opting-out results to negative points.
Of course this is merely speculation

That's exactly why I posted it here. To let the ones know, that actually can look the records

I went to "My Articles", and it says "no articles posted" (the same for Tips). The article/tip count appears to be accurate.

"My Articles" works for me.

It appears to be okay now.
