The CP page doesn't look in order.
I menu names are combined and the forums font looks weird too.

Can you click on your appelative in the upper right and see your "Professional Profile" then click on Reputation and get a graph of your Reputation?
'Don't mean to hijack this thread ... but I can't see my graph in either IE8.0.7601.17514 or my other browser. Which is more up to date.

We (and pretty much every library out there these days) no longer support IE8. What' your other browser?

Step to reproduce:
* sing in CodeProject using Windows Account
* go to article Building COM Servers in .NET
* click download link of source zip file
* new browser tab is opened with content "Security policy does not allow this file to be downloaded"

That sounds like security settings on your system - IE is probably set to block file downloads from sites in the Internet zone.
Try a different browser, or try adding "http://www.codeproject.com" to the Trusted Sites zone.
If your security policy prevents you from doing that, then you'll need to talk to your network administrators to see if they can unblock the site for you.

I posted (once) in a thread that later got deleted, of course it took my post along with it, but now my rep history shows this[^]

In the last few weeks I have had a few message postings flagged as "spam" - in every case I have no idea as to why? These have been in the Lounge, and I didn't see that I used anything inflammatory or self-marketing or anything else like that.
Moreover, I have no idea what happened to these messages. They were placed "in the moderation queue pending approval" - but it would be nice to know a) whether or not they were approved, and b) if not approved, why not? Some sort of follow-up message as to why such a message is spam, and its final disposition would be nice to know.
Thanks...

Generally speaking, you'll know if the message was not published because it was considered spam, because your account will be closed very shortly after! Since this clearly hasn't happened, I'd hazard a guess that they were let through...
And to be honest, it wouldn't be a good idea to let anyone why those message went moderation, or why it was rejected as spammers could easily use that information to get their next message through. We really don't want that!
You have several messages posted in the lounge over the last couple of weeks, so I'd guess they all got through.
The spam system is heuristic: it learns from what messages are and aren't considered spam, so it's not always obvious why it went to moderation even when we look at the specific terms it flagged - but it should learn what terms that it flags as "probably spam" are innocuous over time.
I know that doesn't help you, but it really is a vital system and under normal circumstances the moderation delay is a couple of minutes so it shouldn't inconvenience anyone too much.

Thanks for the response, and I totally understand. But perhaps it makes sense to auto-generate a message (similar to what is initially sent when flagged as spam) to indicate a message was accepted and not punted as spam. At least then a person who does send a valid (non-spam) message knows if his message was posted.
Anyways, thanks again for dealing with this

That sounds like it might be a good idea - a message to say "sorry for the delay, it's posted now".

What do you think?

Apparently there's a safe list - approach Chris to be asked to put on it and given your near 10 years experience I'm sure he will oblige.
|
|

|

No, no safe list. A safe algorithm, though. Of sorts.

In my experience, the "AI" considers almost anything with a "proper name" and / or an acronym, in the middle of a sentence, as "spam"; regardless of who posted it.
Considering how "complex" it must be to deal with this case, I do not see a solution forthcoming.

Split a list into sublists of same outer type reference in LINQ[^]
This seemed like a valid question to me, even if a bit awkwardly worded (OP not a native English speaker ?), and I was going to reply with an explanation and code that demonstrated how to get a collection of all "columns" (IEnumerable of IEnumerables) of a given List<List<T>> using Linq.
OriginalGriff had responded with a substantial comment asking the OP to clarify.
I would like to see questions that have such detailed comments not be deleted so quickly.
thanks, Bill

Could it be possible that it has been deleted by the OP him(her)self?
You always obtain more by being rather polite and armed than polite only.

That's a good point, perhaps it was not removed by votes of other members.
thanks, Bill

If it isn't too much trouble, can we have all the Brexit related posts moved? Because there will be another messy election coming up and we don't want to set a precedent now, do we?
