If you look at a number of those messages you will notice they are more about attacking the author and the article subject. Almost none of them offer a reasoned critique of either his article, in terms of structure and detail, or his project, in terms of technique, coding etc. The votes (and there are lots of positive ones) are what count more than the negative comments. And finally, I hold no brief for Sergio, I don't care much for him as a person, but this article has broken no rules that would merit its removal.

Articles are featured based on their score.
In this case some serious sand-bagging was found. And fixed.

Jobless_IN_Melbourne's profile says "Member since Friday, November 18, 2011", but that members first article, Delegates and Events, what are they morons?, says "First Posted 17 Nov 2011". I wish I was impressive enough to have posted an article before I created my account.

The new error page, with the hamsters, is awesome -- just wanted to tell. Still, I hope I won't see it too much.

Thanks. The day we can write code that has no faults and is completely robust, always, in every situation, is the day I quit.

I hadn't realised that Marc Clifton and John Simmons were the same person. Look at the message titled "aligator / humingbird" in this[^] forum - it says it's for A Coder Interview With Marc Clifton. Now, follow the link and end up in the happy Mr Bluebird Sitting On My Should world of our very own JSOP.

I get:
Ticket: (No ticket provided - possibly an error in the error-system)
Error: An error occurred in this page. The error has been recorded and the site administrator informed.
Abort, Retry, Fail?_
.. when I click on any news item. For example:
http://www.codeproject.com/News.aspx?ntag=103776877398204384
Is this expected?

During some socket work I performed a GET on the main page and another on page 1 of this forum. In each case, I notice that the HTTP response headers have a pair of 2 SetCookie statements duplicated. This comes to some 190 odd bytes of information provided twice.
I checked the header sent both before and after a user has logged on. In each case, there's close to 200 bytes of duplicated information.
I've included the request & response headers below:

It's a good idea. I went through the list you provided and moved the best of them. In the other cases I emailed the author to begin negotition, discussion, and education. And love.

Don't love them. Just threaten them with the Mankini.

Wait ... Love != Mankini?

Where did the whole mankini gag come from?

When seeing anyone in a mankini the normal reaction is to gag
Every man can tell how many goats or sheep he possesses, but not how many friends.

I started it a while back. I can't remember what it started with, but it may have been over Sean having to personally deliver MVP certificates - but I may have kicked it off with something else; my memory is going - when you get to my age, and have a shock like opening the door and seeing Sean bearing an envelope and wearing a Mankini, you tend to block things out.

I've just searched CP. The whole Sean as Mankini Man started off here[^]. It would have died out, but Sean's reply was so funny that it's taken on a life of its own.
