Chris - I don't mean to sound alarmist here, but it looks as though somebody was doing drive by 1 votes on the forums about 2 hours ago. If you go and look at the posts that were near the top of various forums a couple of hours ago, you will find that there are a lot of 1 votes. In some cases, these are against fairly innocuous posts.
Deja View - the feeling that you've seen this post before.

Chris could you not just start getting real forceful with this?

I guess he has created a new account. Lot of 1 votes in the lounge.
You could probably restrict the new users from having voting rights till a period of time and gradually increase it to a NumberOfVotes/day till they reach the silver level.

Interesting. I just noticed some of this on my C# MIDI Toolkit[^] article's message board. Glad to hear that the person's account has been deleted.

I accidently uploaded a 3 Mb demo application for my article. Now I want to delete this file since it contains debug folder too, it's wasting space.
I've added a different zip file as replacement and the previous one ( 3Mb is not being used ). Here is the link[^]. The file name is not shown here in the article but it's there in the server.
I searched for delete options but could not find any. Am I missing something?

Uploading a replacement file with the same name will remove the old (large) file and replace it. Alternatively just fire us an email and we'll take care of everything.

Just a suggestion, adding a delete button will be more helpful.

This[^] CP ad has a bad/incorrect aspect ratio, causing it to be illegible (stretched too tall). See this[^] screenshot.

I posted an article about the registry and I put it under Windows 2000/XP and unselected all programming languages. But when reading the article, the header says that it's category is C++. Can this be fixed?
My article is: http://www.codeproject.com/useritems/CommonRegSettings.asp
Thanks!

The short answer is: not yet.
The long answer is: The current taxonomy is antiquated and is being overhauled. Unfortunately we've got 15,000 articles so the overhaul is causing us some serious heartburn and, of course, some delays.
The executive brief: We're ditching the current categories and will make it more sane.

I've noticed at another forum site that their notification software sends out only one notification for a single thread until you visit the thread again.
The notification email contains this at the bottom:
"There may be other replies also, but you will not receive any more notifications until you visit the forum again."
I think this is a really good idea for three reasons:
1) It will cut down on cp's bandwidth
2) When I get a notification I go and read the whole thread anyway so there's no point in notifying me again if I've just visited. Sometimes I'll post something brilliant or stupid or controversial, take off for the day, come back and there are like 32 emails sitting in my inbox notifying me of every reply needlessly.
3) It might take a load off the C.P. email server and whatever does the notification processing.

I don't know how but two people seemed to think this means you would get no notifications, again, this just means you would get 1 notification even if there were 100 replies, UNTIL YOU READ ANY OF THE REPLIES IN THE THREAD, then it resets and you will get another notification if someone posts something else.
The whole idea is to get only 1 notification when you need it instead of endless notifications whether you need them or not.

I don't really like the sound of that. I like to receive confirmation of the replies i get.

Um..what part of what I wrote led you to believe you would not get email confirmations? I must have typed something wrong because that is not at all what I'm talking about.
