Looks to me like over 900,000 other people didn't mind registering, so why the reluctance to require it?
Because I doubt it will solve anything. I will think about it though.
What about the option to turn off email notifications on your articles? (on an article-by-article basis if need be). Would that help?

What about giving the article's author the ability to delete messages on their own articles or at least flag the messages so an admin or moderator can check the message out to see if it really should go?

I think requiring registration would solve my problem because then I coupld report the abuse and you could terminate the person's account, thus eliminating the abuse.
"What about the option to turn off email notifications on your articles?"
I don't think that's conducive to the community that we all enjoy here.

I don't know how the scoring works in storing information but I assume that if you reject repeat score that it stores you score and identity somewhere in the database. Instead of rejecting a second score, maybe instead it could replace the score with the second score, so people who change their minds can do so. Like all those people that gave me a 1.0 - in case they change their mind - as they realize that they have made a terrible terrible mistake.

I'm sick of seeing those ERROR 500 pages when using Mozilla or FireFox. And when I open up the microsoft crap, everything's just fine...

We ensure that IE and Mozilla users get an equal share of error 500 messages as they become available.

Chris,
Why cant a good friendly looking static page be shown to the user instead of 500 error.

LOL, its nothing to do with IE or Mozilla, it was pure "IE's Luck" that codeproject was up during the time u started looking up for codeproject using IE.

I don't think that is 100% right.
I use Mozilla Firebird (Firefox is still buggy) and Codeproject works just fine.
But:
I can't use the Contribute Wizard. It displays an error message telling me that I don't have IE4 and above or Netscape installed.
And hell, I know that my little browser is capable of handling that site.

I wish to see this
the number of users viewed the article is not enough to know how many readers were really interested in it.

When a person deletes a message it will be replaced with a placeholder to make it all make sense. Patience.

Now the person who replied "Reply2" finds that his post was a mistake and he wants to delete it
Why not the person 'MODIFY' the message... instead of deleting it

Modifying the message is an ideal case,
Deleteing the message is worst case, so you know "things" need to be designed for worst case also.

Makes sense to me. It is a thread about whether people should be allowed to delete messages or not. I thought that the act of deleting a message was a wonderful idea.

I understand that u deleted some messages.... but it would have been wiser at your side, if you 'edit'ed the message by leaving an information that this message is deleted for 'so and so' reasons.
Its upto the message's owner to delete the message and make the forum look like this... or to modify and leave the forum as it was normal.

Thats why its a suggestion to Chris to do something about it.
