When it's in composing state it should not be reportable, though it will be visible to members with enough rep (eg mentors).
I've reopened it and will check to ensure reporting is only available when pending/available.

Sean[^] claimed to've reopened it an hour before you did. Is someone trying to grab credit, or did idiots vote to close it a second time?

When I tried to create my tip/trick with the title "JavaScript String.Replace", I got a message saying that the subject line needs to be between 3 and 50 characters. If I replaced the period with a space, the message went away. I missed my period

Congratulations are in order then.
I'm not sure how "JavaScript String", "Replace", or some concatenation thereof gets outside the [3,50] length range...

Interesting. What it's actually meant to do is also warn you that your title must be at least 3 words.
Mystery explained? (and I'll add a bug report)

Actually, looks like it does say that: "Please keep the subject between 3 and 50 words." I got confused because of the character counter next to the error message.
Still, whether or not this is 3 words is debatable. I have updated the title to be "String.Format in JavaScript" and it's working just fine. Thanks.

It is really getting tiresome. There are more VB programmers out there than there are C#; both languages use the exact same framework and both compile to the exact same intermediate code. Even the administrators of the Code Project do not take it seriously, as articles that never use or even mention VB are routinely put up for "Best VB Article."
The constant bashing and insults are making me reconsider my association with CP.

Don't let it get to you like that, I don't.
You won't change anything, vb.net is bashed all over the internet.
And the whole C#.NET vs VB.NET wars will never stop so you might as well just accept it and ignore it.

As Tom said, VB is routinely hit upon. I work in VB, C# and Java. All three are the devil's spawn according to the accolites of the others. F'Em I say, I also have top write a lot of TCL and that is real shyte.

Not to mention MFC. I hang my head in shame when Nish rags on me about that. Because of his biting witticisms, I now have writer's block. How can I ever write dlg.DoModal() again? Or face another BEGIN_MESSAGE_MAP? Yea, though I step through the lines of PreTranslateMessage(), I can find no bugs; and my tranquility is shattered by the shadows cast by OnPaint().

Short answer, and meaning no disrespect to VB developers here, but no. There is nothing that can be done to stop people bashing VB. Java devs bash C#. C# devs bash VB. C++ devs bash Java. There's no end, and it's pointless wasting your time worrying about it. Ultimately, a language is just a tool to do something, so if it works for you, ignore those who don't like it.

Most of the kiddies who bash VB are noobs or folks who have never bothered learning the .NET version. I use whichever language I am paid to use, like any professional. They both have quirks, both are equally suitable for use, and both need to be programmed, not just copy/pasted (something a lot of the bashers can't handle). Those people who talk as if one is better than the other are revealing their ignorance.

Of course, there is the rest of us who DO know the .Net version that bash it...

Damn! I forgot the ones who got so many wedgies as a kid, they now run around trying desperately to prove that they are manly men by acting just like those jocks they were so afraid of in junior high.

a) Never got a wedgie
b) Never gave a wedgie (pulling on some other dude's skivvies is just gay)
c) Played football in high school
I certainly wasn't "desperate" by any measure (and I'm still not).

Oh, did you assume I meant you? 
Like you, I played football in high school, and I was a track star, swimming star, cleanup hitter on the baseball team, president of the student council, blonde, blue-eyed, lead in the senior play and prom king, too. Or at least that's the way I remember it now.
