It is probably just something that I'm missing, but I noticed this[^] member on top of the Daily Q&A list, but this member has only answered 2 questions in the last 24 hours and hasn't posted in the forums with much of anything either. Just seems strange. 
I wasn't, now I am, then I won't be anymore.

I suspect that he's been massively upvoted over the last 24 hours.

That's what I figured, but it's strange that it doesn't appear to be anything recent, that's all. I was actually curious if someone had used a bot of some sort.

Trying to add a solution to this problem:
How to select a sub tree of a tree in asp.net C#[^].
I hope you can see removed solution.
[EDIT]
This is related to this particular case. After it, I was able to add a solution successfully:
Mapping json to C# class[^].
Here is what happened on the first page (referenced first, above):
1) I failed to post with the usual message "...tried three times... server overworked"
2) After that, I found a missing work in the post added it and hit Submit again.
3) The result was two slightly different solution.
4) I edited older solution to say [Re-post due to the problem on server, to be removed — SA]
5) Then I deleted the older edited solution.
6) After next re-loading of the page, second solutions appeared to be deleted too.
I tried to add the same solution again, but each time it appeared deleted immediately.

That wasn't a glitch... Sorry Sergey.
I happened across that answer shortly after you posted it and noted two answers that looked identical from my view, so I killed the newer one thinking you had been bitten by the double submission thing. Our timing must have been such that the you saw the symptoms you have described above. I didn't notice then that both answers were gone, but did some time later when I happened across the unanswered question again.
I wasn't, now I am, then I won't be anymore.

Well, thank you for helping me. I saw some idea in your reply; and it helped me to post this answer finally (you can see it now  ).
But it was a "magic" fix: I edited one of the deleted posts to a brand-new context, and only then I was able to post the real solution again. So, still, this is definitely some defect, if not a glitch. First, double posts still happen, and against my intent. Also, the "overworked" message is not always true: often, re-loading of page reveals that the post was actually submitted. There is no a way to see the difference from this message: in fact, a post could fail to submit or succeeded. And finally, the situation I described, which I reproduced after you killed my post (which would be fine as I could always restored it if you deleted it by mistake). It created near dead-end situation not related to your intervention anymore. That was a defect. And of course I did not get adequate error responses. In the past, I already reported the problem I described above in the sentence "Also, the overworked message is not always…", but that "auto-deleting" situation is new to me.
Thank you,

When I'm going through Quack Answers, I will read through the entire thread before going on to the next one. To facilitate this I must scroll back to the top to click prev/next. How hard would it be to have thise links at the bottom of the page?

Chris,
I would like to draw your attention towards loss of data in CP forums. Please note this thread http://www.codeproject.com/Messages/4406926/1-Way.aspx[^]
I remember giving the caption (subjecT) as 1, <company name=""> Way and I believe during the process of sanitizing the text for script injection attacks and as part of HtmlEncode, HtmlDecode, the subject is now showing with a ?

Chris,
There is a related issue. Did you find the sibling threads? Are you storing them separately?

OK, so what you mean is: "What about the subject lines of the responses to the post?"
All fixed.

I think it would be nice if this site contains some left and right padding to the content.
e.g. 10 px should be padding left and same on right, it will be nice while reading and posting questions and answers.

I wonder, is it possible to know if some member is still logged in or not. I ask this because , when I expect answer or comment from somone it seems that he or she, has been disconected, logged out.
Perhaps there should be some kind of notification labbel that shall show, On or Off line status of member. Just like there is notification label when someone post new coment or message to me in upper right corner.
Perhaps when I click on the name of member or float with mouse pointer over, there shuld come up status message.
All the best,
Perić Željko

I'm not sure how this would work. I never logoff from CodeProject, but I often hibernate my PC and don't use the internet for hours or even days. So, I'm still logged in but you cannot contact me.
One of these days I'm going to think of a really clever signature.

Perhaps an option available or not when member is logged on.
All the best,

Members don't have the expectation that their offline/online status will be publicised and so my feeling is that introducing this introduces a privacy issue.
It also sets innacurate expectations. I'm usually "on" most of the day, but I'm not answering questions, I'm browsing or reading or working.

Every article has comments like "which flavor", "how does it showcase ultrabook". I have no idea what ultrabook is nor do I want to know what kind of (i'm guessing) competition you're running..
Please make a special category for ultrabook-whatere-you-have-right-now, so we can use codeproject like we used to.

There is a special category for the Ultrabook articles.

Why do category's latest c#, asp.net articles contain mostly ultrabook stuff (no source code, shallow articles,..)?
