I think he meant "dropping s**t all over".

Thank you for clarifying. If that is the 'string' which has hurt, I would sincerely and deeply apologize for the same.
As a matter of fact, it is really irritating to see the folks from Kerala, India constantly trying to plagarize content and involve in 'Credit Theft ' in more than one ways than one. That is the reason of the swift outburst of feelings. Sorry again, if I had hurt someone.

ReCaptcha[^] might be useful too, if this is an automated spammer.

I think putting a captcha on the Article Submission Wizard is an excellent idea. This idiot hit one of my articles, too, and the only reason (as far as I can see) is that it was on the CP front page. So I think there is a strong possibility this might be a bot.

You mean on the message posting page?
It's not a bot and unfortunately CAPTCHA would inconvenience tens of thousands of members for the sake of a single member.
I'm working on a system to just catch and remove it instead. We'll also look at what legal action we can take.

With a little SQL Touch, KTSInfotech is a table while all these leenee, shee and other crap are different views on the table.

Maybe instead of blocking the IP - which can be proxied - the contents of the post should be checked for any of the sites the spammer lists. At the very least, any of the usual sites in his list could be replaced with the url of the CP error page.

I'm not sure what types of word filters CP has, but adding that domain so it wouldn't let them add a message that contains it would help. It used to be that the links were in his signature so I think he's running out of options.

Hi All,
When I tried to update one of my Article (unedited one), it gave me a error at upload new image page. Then I tried to upload it again, that time it took it in and proceed to edit article content page.. I edited the article and preview it.. all work well so far.. then I click on next button and it continuously prompt me an error as bellow
There was a problem creating your article.
The create directory failed due to an IO error on Web09.
But I saw the update being accepted when I close the edit page and freshly browse the article page

Same thing just happened to me with a new article. I have emailed Chris.
|
|

|

The article should be fine - it's just a staging server that's being cantankerous. I've pulled it from production.

You didn't redefine that term too, did you?
I checked again, and although the title says "VB.NET - Games" there is much more C#
than there is VB on this page[^]

It has changed now, the VB.NET" part of the title is gone.
Thanks.

I've been playing around a bit with XNA recently, and it's quite entertaining/ How about a message board / article section for XNA?
At the moment I'm using http://creators.xna.com and www.ziggyware.com, but I prefer the CP interface / layout...
I have no blog...

Hi All/Chris,
I previously brought up this issue under conservatorship for missing authors. I wanted to toss this out (one last time) with an example.
Chew Keong Tan offers a BigInteger class for C#[^]. It is a quality CodeProject exemplary article. It was originally published in August, 2002. The last update by the author was September, 2002. However, the implementation has a couple of bugs. For example, getBytes()[^] needs a correction, which dudubravo provides[^].
In my particular case, I am working with Tan's class. If I publish an article based on his class, I cannot simply direct the reader to his work because I have modified his sources. So I must introduce his work, explain the corrections, and then get on with my primary intentions.
As it stands, there are two downloads available: demo and source (the source has a bug). Would it not be possible for the CodeProject to incorporate the corrections, and make the download available for others since it appears Chew is no longer maintaining the article?
This would add a third download. It could be noted as "Download Source - CodeProject Maintenance (Date of Maintenance)". In addition, the download should include a text file with the CodeProject bug fixes and the reason the source has been changed. I believe this is with in the spirit of the open sharing. In addition, with the orignal EULAs in place, it is allowed by the author.
No source code hijacking or article rewrites have occured - only a correction. Most articles are trivial and do not require this shepherding by the CodeProject. However, every now and again there is a special article which begs for consideration.

We already do this for articles. Just email in the addenda and Sean, Deeksha or Smitha will look after you.
In the future, though, we will be looking to make this a ton easier. It's clearly a problem that needs to be addressed.
