It already is. The error you see is the ASP engine dying.

Hey Chris!
When a message is removed after being voted down etc, maybe a link to the bad message would be nice.
Sometimes I just want to know what all the hub-bub was about that got it removed. I feel all empty inside when all I see is "Message Removed", but can still see the messages after that. It's like reading playboy without the pictures.

That would boost the encouragement of the spammer in that he feels confident that his message is not removed and is always there. Isn't it?
Perhaps a category called 'Quarantine' canbe created and a permalink be created there. But then, should CP waste bandwidth and storage space for all these craps.

Hello,
In point 6 of the FAQ there is the "Noise level" explaint.
I guess the "Message score threshold" was meant.
Which brings me to the next point:
"Message score threshold " is very difficult to understand for non nativ english speakers, I guess. (I have no better solution myself)
Was there really the need for this setting (off course there was, otherwise you wouldn't have implement it), or let's just say I also could sleep well if this is fixed to '1'. (Ohh, its '1.0' which is also confusing)
All the best,
Martin

When you logon to CodeProject forums, a few forums show up this messages:
* Forums in bold have new messages since 3:18 Tuesday 10th July, 2007
But I feel that this timestamp would be more useful if it is converted and shown in User's local TimeZone. It is currently 10th July, 2007 1742 hours IST(Indian Standard Time)

Along with vote count, I think there should be an option to display IPAddresses from where the vote was cast. That way, I think, we can catch this Uni-voter red-handed and sc**w him.

Maybe I just need some coffee, but in the last few minutes I've updated parts 1 & 2 of my XResFile articles, and each of them had MFC selected. Strange, I thought, I didn't think I selected that. So I de-selected MFC, submitted the article, and when I just checked, MFC was back!
What's going on? (Yes, I've tried Ctrl-F5, and even a different browser).

Some sections have default attributes associated with them. If you publish an article in a section with a default attribute (eg some of the control sections, WTL sections etc) then the default attribute (eg MFC, WTL) will automatically be added.
This is currently being revised.

The category pages like ASP.NET etc list all the articles and it comes about 1.0 MB webpage size.
I think, CP can show the first few articles and do some pagination.

By "user bar", I'm referring to the far right side of the light orange bar that also shows the number of registered users.
Instead of string all those things out, try one of these two things:
1) Reduce it to just the user's name and put everything else into a drop-down menu that shows up when you hover over the user name. To indicate that there's a drop-down, you might want to use a graphic down-pointing arrow.
2) Same as item #1, but leave "Sign-out" at the top level.

How about creating a new menu item labeled "Topics", and make it have a drop-down menu from which you can select the following:
MFC/C++
C#
ASP.Net
VB.Net
Architect
SQL
All Topics
and then have a bread-crumb style indicator of the currently selected topic, like so:
Home Topics (MFC/C++) Articles Forums Help

Have you noticed the amount of junk and ridiculously simple articles that have started to pop up on CodeProject?
An examples: http://www.codeproject.com/useritems/bj__jhkljk.asp
There were few more during the past week. I did report most as abuse and almost all seem to have been taken out
So you can rest assured that the CP admins thought them to be junk as well, and that I'm not trying to pick on some kid who posted a beginner article.
But, what's going on in here anyway? Have we pissed off some sociopaths and let them run wild on CP?
Anyway, I suggest we all take the time to figure out what we can do to keep CP from turning into something ugly.
If you have read this (http://apple.slashdot.org/comments.pl?sid=44091&cid=4592270) article on SlashDot, you'll understand my concern
Cheers!
Sameera.

Just let Chris know about it and he'll take care of it

Hey Chris! You know about this?
Maybe CP, ratings should work like Digg.
Or maybe more CPians should be made moderators.
Anything to keep the site clean
|

|
|
I suggest members with less than 50 messages are not allowed to post an article
|
|
|
|
|
While that can help,
that would even exclude me
|
|
|
|
|
I think new members (however you define it) should be allowed to post an article, but their articles should be queued for review (maybe by CP "volunteer" editors?) until they have completed their probationary period.
|
|
|
|
|
Yeah, precisely.
I'd volunteer for such a worth cause
(seriously, I would).

That was hilarious. I'm still laughing. When I stop laughing, I'll probably begin to realize how close it comes to some situations here, but thanks for the link.
Example:
Slashdottians know nothing, they accomplish nothing, and their opinions are worth nothing. They are uniformly bitter, small-minded geeks who overestimate their own importance and their own skillz. They are, for the most part, losers. Their biggest accomplishment is in insulting others' spelling and grammar.
