Do ... do you want me to check your article for plagiarism? :p
Thanks,

Lol, You can if you want to but there is nothing to find.
I posted this question because I felt , my earlier joke about fast article approval would be misused by others
cheers,

Every few days, the site seems to forget my settings - the layout gets reset to "fixed", the forum display options are reset to the default, and the "email me" and "allow private email" options are re-selected.
Is there a bug lurking somewhere, or is it just me?

I find that if you visit one of the forums without being logged in it will randomise the forum display messages. When I then log-in it keeps these random settings rather than loading my saved ones. Perhaps this is what you are seeing?

Nope - I'm always logged in.
Apart from a brief bug at the end of May, I don't think I've been logged out since 2002.

You've had the same machine since then?

No, but I've transferred the browser profile between machines.

This has happened to me a couple of times.

I'm suspecting it's a database load issue. Our new hosting setup seems to be having a few teething problems that we're still trying to get to the bottom of.
When it can't get your settings it goes back to default settings, and these in turn will get set as your new defaults if you try and update.

... Do you hash message content and check the forum for hash matches?
Because if so, I think I just got a false match in the lounge.
Tried several times to post a lounge message:
I know what you mean, but I'd have thought it would shred it rather than accelerate it that much - like trying to push a water balloon out of the way by hitting it with a cricket bat! :laugh: but every time I got a "already posted" message. Checked the moderation queue and the forum in a different tab several times, but it wouldn't post until I changed the final space to a newline. Then it went straight in.
Ideas?

Yes we do.

Even though plagiarism often results to closing the account I'd suggest that when an article is closed because of plagiarism, all points earned from that article (writing, votes, downloads etc) would be also removed.
This way the 'benefit' would be removed but perhaps more importantly the remaining articles and posts (if any) would show correct amount of total points for the author.

This is already the case.

Can we have something similar as with articles where people with the right amount of reputation can still see deleted messages / questions.
When I go to report someone I often want to verify that the person truly deserves it, but most of the time the message / question is gone.
As it is now, more than once we have to go on the judgement of the person posting the link in the spam forum.
Just occurred to me, this might already exists but I might not have the needed reputation, if that's the case just ignore this.

When you view your own article, </> display an html page with only your article.
A little change can greatly improve the display:
-Adding body{ width: 700px; margin: auto; } in css section
It make the article look the same as in CP.

Bruno Sprecher made a short visit before being forced to leave us again. (What is the problem really?)
Anyway, his last post[^] was this morning but his account[^] was blocked on Saturday

No, not a caching issue at all. A platinum level member closed his account. I have no idea why but I'm making changes to the reporting system as we speak.

If the messages are in an unseen-before-format then the filters will need more learning, which, if you marked them as spam, it's now getting.
I'll do some manual checking, though
