Wouldn't it make more sense to display the message to the user who posted it, but not to anyone else until it's been released from the queue? (Possibly with a hint to indicate that it's in the moderation queue.)

The problem with that is that unless the OP types it in exactly the same the second time (punctuation, case, spelling, and precise word usage) it's not going to be identical, so it's difficult for machines to spot.
Humans do a much better job of that kind of comparison, particularly if there are two copies in the moderation queue together!

Yes, but if you display the message to the user as if it had actually been posted, possibly with a "this message is in the moderation queue" notification, then they'll be less likely to post it again.
For most users, it's only when their message disappears into the ether with no sign that it's actually been posted that they'll post it a second time.

I know what you mean, but I can see (maybe) why they don't. If nothing else, it informs the spammer that he is on the wrong track immediately and that he should try tweaking his message.

But the message not appearing in the forum already does that.

Sorry, I think I may have clicked your message in a long list of spam messages about TV sport. I tried to respond in your QA but it got deleted while my response was in moderation. The Spam catcher is working overtime today.

That is ok. Thank you very much for your Feedback. I was really asking me where I'm wrong
I know there was a time I was ugly here, but that time is over
Thank you.

I frequently use the keyboard to move from tab to tab within Firefox (Ctrl + PageUp/PageDown) and I've noticed this causes a page refresh. When you manually click from one tab and back to a CodeProject tab it appears to not exhibit this behavior.
This may be as designed but it can get a little annoying when I'm halfway down the page reading an article and scroll to another tab only to return to find the page is back at the top after a refresh.

The problem does not seem to occur in Chrome.

I can't reproduce the problem in Firefox 41.0.1.

I've added an exception to FireFox to stop this happening.

I am no longer able to add bookmarks for Code Project articles. When I click on the bookmark icon, it indicates the bookmark was added, but when I go to My Bookmarks, the new bookmark is nowhere to be found!
|
|
|
|
|
Which item are you bookmarking? Can you provide a link?
cheers

You have 8 pages of bookmarks.
Look on page 3[^]:

Thanks -- there appears to be no way to search for a specific bookmarked article so I will have to do a page by page sequential search.
|
|
|
|
|
Go to the search page and select "My bookmarks[^]"
cheers

I am still struggling with this -- I can't seem to get the search feature to work. I checked "Everything" and "My bookmarks" and it still will not find the "Automated UI Testing" article which is on page 3 of my bookmarks.

Hello,
Today I woke up to find 3 serial downvotes (have a look at the times) and the articles, (all three of them) are under the same "Wearables" category. The user seems to be the same one.
Can't you look into what happened there? http://postimg.org/image/5on975b7f/[^]

What's the problem here? I'm unable to access the image. You would have uploaded it here on Codeproject.
