Article is gone. What I don't understand.... the user is over 9 years here (only message is from 2005) and right now the next thing is to plagiarize an article? Makes no sense

He signed up 9 years ago - but he hardly logged in at all until very recently (see his Rep graph). I'm guessing he wants to pad his CV with spurious articles.

You are right, I had not seen in rep history. Maybe is a sleeper agent of the old spam-agency

I was tempted to use the Power of Greyskull to delete it, but thought I'd leave it so others could read and administer a suitable kicking...

I seem to recall that user before, at least the job title is familiar. It seems odd to me that a "Chief Technology Officer" is unable to figure out how to unsubscribe from an email....

I guess it depends what the technology is!
You get "Waste Management Technicians" rather than "Bin Men" nowadays...

You could be right. I once heard a shoe salesman refer to himself as a "Shoe Engineer". I almost spit up all over myself.

So in the beginning, there was this[^] Lounge post - Nice, a typical Lounge post like it gets posted every day.
But now the game begins. Apparently, the member has tried to get the Lounge post approved as article. which was smashed by the community:
http://www.codeproject.com/script/Articles/ArticleVersion.aspx?aid=609272&av=890409&msg=4593033#xx4593033xx[^]
Afterwards, he got that same thing approved as Tip/trick:
An example of a GUI technique known as “Recent Places list”[^]
I ain't got a problem with tips/tricks containing no source code; sometimes no source code is needed to present an idea.
What really disturbs me on this one is that the Tip/trick is just copy-pasted from his Lounge post and does not present any idea, neither source code nor anything else interesting.
It basically just says "Oh, have you heard ffrom those recent places thing?" - Freshed up with some poor screenshots edited in Paint.
Don't feel like the account needs to get nuked, but delete the Tip, at least. It is from really poor quality and has no value at all - At least in my opinion.
cheers,
Marco
Edit: Fixed the link to the Lounge post.

The link to the lounge post needs to be fixed...
I'm also not sure about this... Poor Quality, or Plagiarized ?

I'd go for 'Poor quality' - IMO Plagiarism is only applicable when someone else's work is copied.
