YES.. Both member number also different. Is it taking as different user names ? But I have only created the one what I am using now. And I wrote those from this userid only. Don't what's going wrong

I think different ids should mean different login names (login email addresses). You can email webmaster (at) codeproject.com so that your credentials can be advised. But I don't know whether CP can merge both your acccounts into one.

Sometimes when I click on the Post Message button there is a long delay then I get this error message:
"An error has occurred
Sorry!
The maximum length of time our servers were willing to spend on your request has passed. They are extremely busy and ask that you let them take a quick breather before trying again."
It sounds like I've done something wrong and annoyed the servers who really have better things to do that service the users of CodeProject, it's far too smug and should be changed.

You have done something wrong. You've annoyed the hamsters who are now in the thrall of Kyle.;P
Deja View - the feeling that you've seen this post before.

That is not a good thing to do.

Just change it to something like: Hamsters went on break, be back in a few

Hopefully a brief coffee break only!!

Yes, just a quick five minute one :-> ( but policy is there must be at least one at the server while the others go on break, and they rotate so no one gets ripped off a break )

Maybe Chris should add the following to that error message:
"It's obvious that our servers are overloaded, but you can help. Please enter the amount of money you'd like to donate toward the purchase of an additional one."

There is something bizarre about the algorithm that makes an excerpt of a message board reply to email to users. It seems to rely heavily on line feeds and cuts off the rest of the message if someone puts a blank line in their response.
So if a reply contains this:
"Hi!
I totally disagree with what you said..blah blah"
You get a notification with this:
"Hi!"
If the reply is this:
"Hi!
I totally disagree with what you said..blah blah"
You get the whole thing.
Personally I don't see why it's cut off at all, I'd like to see it include all the text and compile several responses together if possible into one message.

As we say back home: it's cactus.
I've added this to the bug list.
The reason we cut off text is because we had a lot of complaints about people posting large posts and having those posts clogging up their email. I can certainly look to increase the size cutoff to allow more of the message to come through.

When a message is modified in CP discussion boards, it shows a 'modified' tag in Subject and as well a Modified timestamp.
I just thought if it were possible to have a Message History feature also like a Wiki. If not for Lounge or Soapbox, for technical boards, I think it should be useful. Isn't it? Also, if the message is voted down or at administrator discretion, the history can be expunged to reclaim storage space.

For what??

At least for the technical forums, it would be a finer blend of Wiki style.
For Lounge etc, we can effectively use it to combat abuse right?

How? If somebody modifies an abusive post, then it isn't combatting abuse to keep the original abusive message.

In fact, some of us may even become more combative.
