Since the problem was fixed, my post will appear odd - because of the line breaks I manually inserted.

Hey Chris,
This started happening a few minutes ago. After a blockquote-tag, there used to be an extra line-break added, which is not there anymore. So I have to manually add one to get the old behavior.

Is this change intentional?Regards,

Yes, years of ardurous usability studies have determined that it is the preferred way. It also makes posters more energetic, and saves the environment.

1. We used to replace line breaks with <br> tags everywhere. This caused problems with things like UL's etc. We're now more discriminating with line breaks.
2. The stylesheet has been updated to no longer overcompensate for the extra breaks that were added, so do a Ctrl+F5 (or wait for a cache expiration) and you'll be good to go.cheers,

| I'll tweak the pattern matching again. Some cleanup I did yesterday has removed some of the previous options, plus there is an end-of-string error on a couple of the smileys I didn't catch. cheers,

Well, I was just browing through a few articles on CodeProject. I don't exactly remember which ones, but some of them were really good! They were worth reading and learning from.
However, I saw something which was really awkward. One of the articles had tons of votes of fives and fours, and a vote of one and two. After scrolling down to the bottom, the voters who voted one or two did not specify there reason for the low vote.
What I want to know is why exactly would anyone vote an article "1" (without any reason), when tons of people are voting the same article "5."
I just wanted this to be brought to attention.
*DISCLAIMER: I am not saying this because it happened to my article; I am saying this because this is slight fishy. Why is an article voted 1, when like 20 people vote it 5. Even if you want to vote 1, you should give a reason, so that the author can improve himself.
Thanks,

This is a widespread problem at Code Project with no clear solution. Of course, people have varied motivations (finding out what they are would be like asking why "some people murder others when most other people don't murder them"). Here are what I expect to be some common reasons:
1) The voter wanted to see something in the article that wasn't there, and voted entirely based on the lack of that one small item.
-For example, somebody down-voted one of my articles because he thought I should have graphs and metrics and such.
2) The voter took a quick glance at the article and voted based on some immediate instinct (like "the article seems too long").
3) Some people have huge egos and, when they see something they interpret as a flaw (perhaps a simple typo), they will down vote it to attain a sense of power and worth.
4) Rival authors that want their article to be rated higher than yours.
5) Authors that just want all other articles to less popular than theirs (fame cravers).
6) Maybe you pissed them off by commenting on some forum post, so they are relaliating by voting your article down.
The list goes on and on... some people just do this. Though, the majority of votes will usually drown out these minority votes. Still, it would be nice if a coherent response was required for 1-voters, rather than those who just post "-" as their message body when they 1-vote. I think those posts can be reported as abuse and, if they get deleted, the 1-vote will also be removed from the article... not sure about that though.
