I made a post, which has received 4 votes in total (all of which are 5). But the message seems to be removed as it was "abusive" to some person (presumably one). I can assure that nothing was abusive or wrong in that post.
May I politely suggest that we rethink about how many reports are needed to remove a post as abusive? At the very least, it CANNOT be just 1 report (no matter how 'super diamond' kind of member is casting that vote).

Every day, I scroll through the Daily News looking for some interesting stuff. After a few weeks of doing so, I kind of get the feeling that there is a bias towards articles and blogs involving Microsoft products. I understand that a great deal of developers are developing for the Windows platform, but personally I would be more interested in articles regarding open source alternatives. Trust me, I'm not intending to reboot the ever pending holy war between Linux and Windows, but I was just curious if my observation was correct. Is CodeProject in some way sponsored by Microsoft or is this bias purely due to its dominating market share?

We're actively encouraging our members to explore all technologies and there is no editorial bias towards any given vendor (though at times I may have a strong bias against[^] a particular vendor).
The news that's posted is purely reflective of our demographics. I'll give Mr Insider a nudge though.

Pardon me if this has already asked before. I was on hibernation.
I can see that downvoting on the Lounge has already been disabled, which is good, IMHO. However, I was going through the forum posts of someone who wanted to quit(I'm not mentioning names, and I know I don't need to ) and noticed that it had a score of 1. How was that possible?
Signature construction in progress. Sorry for the inconvenience.

I you report a post a vote of 1 will automatically be applied
(I think there are some limitations for this rule. I believe something like this vote of one is only applied if the downvote is disabled or something like that)

Nope. Whenever a forum post is reported, it gets voted with a "1", but the downvote has no impact on the rep points.

Posts can still be reported as spam/abuse in the lounge.

I accidentally clicked 'Mobile' at the footer of the website. The display style changed. Now when I wanted to revert back I could not find an equivalent like 'Back to Standard Mode' at the same position where I saw 'Mobile'. However this was present somewhere near top of the page.
Can we have this these links at the same position interchangeably?

Some members are serious and their posts are informative and add new things, I want to follow some of these smart coders without each time visit their pages, can I follow them as people on Twitter
The era of paper and pen will never end.

Some members have included their twitter info in their profile. You can visit their profile to see if they have a twitter account to follow.

Here's some additional info which will hopefully help track down this bug.
I decided to attempt to Update my article and see if I could attach the files again. When I clicked the "update article" link then the article went into edit mode and it shows the two files for download even though they don't show up on my article.

It should be all fixed now

I believe the links are duplicated and are bearing different nomenclature too.

This is on purpose.
For the "Help" menu we just have Bugs and Suggestions, but if we just had "Bugs and Suggestions" in the forum list then we'd have people posting their bugs.

Dear CP Team,
If one's thread is being liked (aka) upvoted, then a notification can be included. A notification email may be little too much but at least it could be tucked in the 'notifications' baloon at the top right of the website.
This would be similar to Facebook posts -- comments and likes.

Notification inside CodeProject may be noisy, but have you considered to provide separate notification installer for codeproject ?
Some one may use or some one may not but in my case, at my office i do not have email access that associated with my codeproject. So i didn't get quick notification except when i am on CP.
I think this will be value added.
Thanks

Just do a search for 'Todolist codeproject' in Google and you would land up with 'todolist 6.6.6' (Dan's tools) -- the desired search.
Do a search for 'Todolist' in Codeproject search and this primary tool is no where to be listed in the first two pages. Its support tools are listed but not the primary ones. I believe CP search hamster needs some beer too.

Or less beer. And more Gin.
Just in case the hamster is Hungarian.

If something has a solution... Why do we have to worry about?. If it has no solution... For what reason do we have to worry about?
Help me to understand what I'm saying, and I'll explain it better to you
Rating helpfull answers is nice, but saying thanks can be even nicer.
