The reason is because we have 5 million users and 9 years of history overshadowing everything. We want new LAMP and Java sites to start with their own quirks and idiosynchrocies and we want members there to be able to express their views without worrying about the heavy Microsoft contigent.
We've debated this internally a lot over the last few years and want to give the Java and LAMP sites a chance to be themselves. If we make it all once big site from the outset then we'll never be able to go back. But if we try it this way first then at least we can see what happens.

Hi Chris,
I see, thanks.
I wonder what new quirks you will come up with.

How about you delete that message or else I will purchase your address and phone number? Sounds fair.

You can chose to 'Report This Message' which would '1' vote the post and send a request to CP Administrator for closer scrutiny and action.

CP Team need to strongly examine and investigate regarding the violations of CP TOS by the said account and then they would take that action. You may need to write to webmaster (at) codeproject.com with any abusive replies that you have recieved from the other user.

Would it be possible to make this 'sticky'? Or have a preference for the default value?
I always have to turn it off.

Yeah, and his picture scares me.

You're going to have his account deleted because he has a photoshopped picture of Christian as his own picture? That's bordering on absurd.

Gladly, you don't have your actual photo in your profile page (here, I am assuming that what is there in your profile page is not your actual photo  ).
Now, for Christian, it was one photo and one account. Imagining you have your photo in your profile page, probably we'll have to delete hundreds of such accounts every week.

There's a bit more to it than just the picture -
-He submitted a junk article - basically the template filled with "Was there anything you found interesting..." repeated a couple of hundred times.
-His four posts are garbage at best, complete drivel at worst
-I suspect he 1-voted Christians article on which he has commented
-He's been a member < 24 hours...

If a one person has a problem with another person and goes about it civily then there's no problem. But if a person creates an account specifically to target and ridicule someone else then it gets nuked. The terms of use specifically state that stalking or harassing another member is not allowed.
This all goes against the larger issue of members harassing others.

This is obviously Kyle. His other account 'DeamonPossessed' needs deleted too.

Since you know this is not true your post violates this part of the terms of use
Defame, abuse, harass, stalk, threaten or otherwise violate the legal rights (such as rights of privacy and publicity) of others.

There seems to be some bad HTML posted in ASP.NET forum by some and the forum layout (not excluding left navigation menu) is breaking.
As on 05/30/2008 0100 Eastern Time, this anomaly is epicentered in Page 4 of ASP.NET forum.
