If you are talking about me,you are wrong. I've reported some high reputation accounts in past and as a result,highly abusive words are being supported just to oppose me! Funny. If you consider whole site,i agree with your point. Some of the members will be questioned on almost every occasion where some selective members(influential?) won't be even asked for clarification on same issues. Fact.

10k's definitely not enough Michael Martin[^] probably had ~40k when he was repeatedly nuked from orbit over the posts that gave us elephants and sunshines. IIRC Fatboy had more than that when he was banned; but I can't find his account to check what his rep score was.
Did you ever see history portrayed as an old man with a wise brow and pulseless heart, waging all things in the balance of reason?
Is not rather the genius of history like an eternal, imploring maiden, full of fire, with a burning heart and flaming soul, humanly warm and humanly beautiful?

It doesn't surprise me that it is Rohan that reported this originally.

OK not sure what part is directed at me?
"I've reported some high reputation accounts in past and as a result,highly abusive words are being supported just to oppose me! "
If so you need to get over yourself, I'm pretty sure I have not used highly abusive words towards you.

I'm not that little guy who becomes personal over silly issues . I'm just concerned about double standards.

Oh yes you are[^].
You shall be known as 'little guy' from now on.

It's got nothing to do with how many points members have compared to him, the little guy just likes to apply his own set of rules when voting members off, despite it being pointed out to him by me and others that he is too over-zealous.
About the rep points, interestingly almost half of his overall points come from voting members as abusive - yet he doesn't even realise that he is causing most damge to the site.

Totally agreed (about his rep points),
He(little guy) marked any person abusive even if he don't know the meaning of that word and,
Even if he don't like or satisfied with solution given by any new member he marked that person to abusive its not fair at all.

The "member" who was banned replied to my post. I asked him not to use the abusive word (CHU****) and told him to retract his post.
If he has not done it , what should we do. you have any suggestion?
cheers,

specially for you..
Who is saying that f***** is right and c****** is an abusive word..?
First he should be investigate if he don't know meaning of that word. In India its very common word people of India used it their friend circle,
How can he mark a comment to abusive that he is not clear that its abusive or not?
A person maintaining his account more that 6 years and 1 day somebody came and marked his account as abusive and many of them just go with flow and blocked his account.
For his information the word so called abusive meaning is "An Idiot"; in India.

Codeproject is a public forum,not one's personal playground or so called 'friend circle'. People in India use too many such words(you know what i'm talking about) that doesn't mean it's totally fine to use it on Codeproject,in unmasked text.

So what? There is not a different set of guidelines.

No. BTW congrats for your new account!

You are with CP since 3 years ago, and a person who is maintaining his account since last 6 years you marked him as abusive its totally wrong.
Just because of he is not having so much point as you have so you will mark abusive to any one.?

Points have nothing to do with this discussion.

Just want to know a word that meaning you don't how you marked to abusive?
just told you that a person who maintains his account last 6 years and does not make any abusive comment 1 day you marked him abusive without knowing the meaning of that word.?
|
|

|

You should ask your friend, relative lives in India that its abusive or not?
they will tell you the truth.
Its very common word in India as I told you that meaning is "Idiot", after that also you are justifying what you have done?

No. Its different. Let me end this discussion from my end : If he would have written idiot,i could mark the message as abusive and moved on,but the word 'C****a' is not for public forums,not related to word idiot,highly abusive.

I am also living in India and I know the meaning of that special word. It is upto you how you take it. While it was unmasked, it should be marked as abusive, but de-activating his account was not fair in any way.
He want his account back.
Would you please suggest a way to get his account back.

You already did your part posting here.
It now is a decision for the owners / workers of CP, not on the users. They read every of such posts and deliver each case individually (I have seen it several times). Just be patient and wait for feedback of the Staff
M.D.V.
If something has a solution... Why do we have to worry about?. If it has no solution... For what reason do we have to worry about?
Help me to understand what I'm saying, and I'll explain it better to you
Rating helpful answers is nice, but saying thanks can be even nicer.

I always thought it was not a great idea to auto-ban users based on people voting them as abusive. Specially in a multi-cultural forum. That said, a lot of people use the relative anonymity of the internet to behave in a manner they would not dream of doing if they knew that people'd associate that with their real self.
