Hi,
This may be an unusual question. I have registered here 17 years ago with the username "agabor", but then I did not actively use the site. I re-registered later, and now I am a more active member, and I would like to get back my original username. I use this username in every programming related website, and it bothers me that I can not use it here because of my own forgetfulness. And as my original registration happened 17 years ago, I do not remember what e-mail address I used, or even if that address still exists. Could this profile be deleted?

Your username is now agabor. Feel free to update your Display name too, if you wish.

I have an article that I'd like to update. I have pressed the update article button and made my modifications to the content. I have then described my modifications and pressed the publish button.
The form failed due to too many tags. The error message tells me that there's a maximum of 8 tags for the article.
Truth is: I never changed the tags. They are 5 tags. The article was published with all the 5. I kept them 5.
What I have tried:
Refresh the page.
Save the article as draft and come back again to submit my changes.
Delete all tags and add them again.
Auto-fill tags, delete all, then add them manually again.

If you can post a link to the file you're trying to update and the 5 tags you wish to keep we'll take a look and see what's happening
cheers

Thanks for your reply. Here's my article. As you can see, there's only 5 tags. When I tried to update it, I never changed the tags, there were 5 and I kept the same 5. However, I wasn't able to update due to the error described.
I hope there's a way for me to update my article without having to ask for it here every time as I plan to update it again soon.

I just updated your article (just edit/save, didn't actually mark it as updated) and it went through without any issues.
I'll add this to our list and see if we can find what's happening
cheers

I have exactly the same problem. I cannot post an update of my article because of too many tags supposedly -- even if I specify only one tag. If I delete all tags, I cannot submit, because I have to select some tags. Seems to be a site problem.

Assuming you mean this article[^], all three downloads work fine for me.

The downloads are also working fine for me. Would you like me to email the files to you?

I have attempted to email you the files, but the emails are getting rejected. Could you please send me an email at sean@codeproject.com from a different email address that might work for you?

I noticed today that the profile is showing my time zone as Arizona, which is incorrect. I tried changing it to Mountain Time and it appeared to take the change, but if I leave the profile pages and return it has always reverted to Arizona. Note that the only difference between the Arizona and the Mountain time zones is that the Arizona time zone does not honor daylight savings time. Maybe this is a known bug and it's only storing the offset from GMT and not the actual time zone? If so, that means everyone has to edit their profile when daylight savings changes...

Hi Guys,
I had to move my domain last week which took a few days to finalise during which emails may have bounced back and caused the address to have been blacklisted in some way. All is well now so could someone check why I'm not getting them any more please?
I did try changing my preferences and saving them but it did not resolve the problem.
Many thanks
John

You account looks fine this end. Have you checked the usual (spam filters, non-focus folder etc)?

Hi Chris,
Yes indeed, no spam filters or any other rules etc. Using Outlook but I've also checked using the web mail client for my new host (I have other email accounts with this host with no problems), I had to move the domain from Plusnet because we are moving abroad and I'll have a French ISP soon
Many thanks
John

IIRC I asked this question here bunch of years ago. I see 100s of questions(on some topics .... particularly Reports related) without answers in Q/A section. I was away for long time so missed those at that time.
In past I used to get my own answers from Q/A section whenever I search for solutions at work. That's the main reason for this question. Usually I browse Questions up to 2-3 months old to answer. Is it OK to answer 1 year old questions?
Drafting some solutions to post as Tips/Tricks sooner or later.

I wouldn't - it's mostly seen as "rep point farming" and the trigger happy amongst us will definitely see you as "Troll / abusive".
I tend to warn newbies:
Quote: While I applaud your urge to help people, it's a good idea to stick to new questions, rather than 8 year old ones. After that amount of time, it's unlikely that the original poster is at all interested in the problem any more!
Answering old questions can be seen as rep-point hunting, which is a form of site abuse. The more trigger happy amongst us will start the process of banning you from the site if you aren't careful. Stick to new questions and you'll be fine.
