Do you know, in legislation of most modern countries for a person, who did a crime can be applied "release on bail" procedure, this means suspect can pay money for court to get out of the prison, is it applicable for codeproject?

Agreed

The penalty for being abusive look hard.
Knowing the ease to create a new account, something more progressive than a definitive ban would be nice.
What about a penalty which double every time someone is abusive ?
The penalty can be on reputation or temporary ban. and when reputation is negative, the ban is definitive.

You don't think that it's odd in the slightest that the abusive account holder had at least 6 sock puppet accounts waiting in the wings ready to go? What sort of "penalty" would discourage that?
You can lead a developer to CodeProject, but you can't make them think.

Nothing !
My note was for "serious" members that became abusers by "accident" once in a harsh discussion.
Definitive ban don't solve the problem of abusers, it just displace the problem. The only impact is on "serious" members that have to change their nick name and loose ownership of their articles.

I am trying to download some sample files from an article.
When I press the download link, it redirects me to the terms and conditions. I accept them, then get re-directed back to the article. If I try downloading again, the same thing happens, over and over.
EDIT: It now works. I suppose there may have been a long delay for the update.

I'm getting the exact same thing, on Safari, Firefox, and Internet Explorer.

This afternoon, I started getting the "your email address needs to be confirmed" message. I clicked on the link, received the email, and clicked on the confirmation link in the message. I got the "success" page, but I'm still seeing the "your email address needs to be confirmed" message.

Did the confirmation not get recorded, or is this another caching issue?

Same here. I actually can't use the insider news forum because it keeps telling me I need to confirm my email. done, twice already. 
|
|
|
|

Ditto; started with the random error that my message was already posted, then I got this warning.
Confirmed the email and all appears to work again.

Not for me - I've re-confirmed three times, and it still tells me I need to confirm.

"Is your email address OK?"

Same here...
I also noticed that everything since 1st of January 2000 marked as new in forums...
Skipper: We'll fix it.
Alex: Fix it? How you gonna fix this?
Skipper: Grit, spit and a whole lotta duct tape.

|
Same here, confirmed three times but....
However, some of the pages don't show the "Your email address need to be confirmed" notification and some of the pages do. So I'm hoping it's a caching issue.

|
|
|
|
Same here, I would say this is bug because my email is already confirmed ever since I started using CodeProject. So, this notification is being shown to me since a while. I think a small bug

Why does CP need us to confirm again the address that was already confirmed once when creating the account ?
If I was able to confirm once, chances are that I am still owner of the account.

Items that need attention:
•It appears that this message has already been posted in this forum.
Quick check shows that it has not been posted, so, this appears to be a random error. Might be something that needs attention

Please change your change password UI. It is really a mess to work with. I wasted 20 minutes going through a password reset all because your change password wasn't being nice to me. Please take what I am saying as constructive, but UI on popups is really bad UX.
Thanks.

Just tried it. It was no big deal, you enter in old pwd and enter new pwd twice and finally press "Save". Not experienced problem: confused:

Shouldn't the last question be checkbox's instead of radio buttons? Seems it's multiple choice answer to me.

@chris-maunderr , @sean-ewington
Just wanted to check if people are allowed to be in CP even if they don't contribute much in technical discussion.
The below thread's response states that its abusive/troll if we are just hanging only in Lounge (non technical ) forum and it will incur the wrath of protectors.
If that is the case, I will prefer to exit voluntary rather than having been booted out.
cheers,
Super

I'm guessing a significant portion of CP members create an account, download code, read a newsletter from time to time, and never ever contribute anything to the site be it a comment, upvote, downvote, article, or whatever. And I love each and every one of those users very, very much.
Thanks,
