Glimpse is a opensourse software. It provides the feature by which a devloper can know what is going on server and it will help to debug code. Mr. Suraj Sahoo has explained this thing in article.

After a critique on a current article, the article was removed, and the author went on a downvoting spree. I don't know why the article was marked as deleted, or if the author himself did it, but it's still accessible through the link in the weekly news, here: Prime Number Distribution Series[^]
I see that one user downvoting another users contributions isn't covered in the FAQ - I suspect that kind of thing doesn't happen so often.
I don't really care about the votes, but I really wonder about the reason why the article was removed. One of the comments in the downvotes indicates that he thinks it was somehow my fault, but I didn't report the article for deletion, nor do I see a reason why anyone would - certainly not based on my comment. I didn't even vote 1, (I voted 2) and there were a couple of 5-votes too. I can't understand the reaction and suspect that there may be some big misunderstanding. Maybe on my part, and almost certainly on the authors part, but maybe also on someone elses part, whoever was responsible for the deletion.
I know this is beyond the scope of this FAQ, but would someone care to look into the history of that article and see what really happened?

Ok, I changed my mind.
I tried to be civil and reasonable with said author, but in response he gets more and more aggressive[^]. Even my patience is limited.
I reported his last message as abusive and the other stupid votes (or rather vote comments) as spam. I realize the numbers will still stay in the system, but these 'comments' simply do not belong on this site!

Here's my article:
A Fundamental Lock-Free Building Block - The Lock-Free Stack
There's a vote of 1. The person that did it doesn't seem to understand english, nor do they understand what I'm saying. The comment has received multiple down-votes, and is now filtered out.
But, I'd like it removed entirely. This article says I can mark it for deletion, but I can't find a way to do that. Please help?

I am new in codeproject.com.
What do I do with the reputation points?
Thank You.

If you go to your profile, and then to the Privileges tab, you can see a good summary of what you can do, or what you will be able to do with increased reputation.

After reading a comment on an article, I wanted to return to the first page of comments, but accidentally clicked on the 1 that voted on the comment rather than the 1 that was just below it to return to the first page. Can I remove that vote?

You can change your vote, but I don't believe you can 'un-vote'.

I wonder if this is a tiny glitch or did the internal "ratings" of the people that voted change so for that reason the article grading is "fluctuating" in a non-obvious way.
Let me explain:
2 votes for 3,
2 votes for 4 and
16 votes for 5 gave an article rating of 4.33.
Later on the article get one more vote for 5 but no (to me) apparent change of the other grading. Then with the new 5-vote the rating went from 4.33 down to 4.28.
So a higher vote decreased the total rating? This I can understand if someones "reputation" point changed. Either a 5-voter got lower reputation or a 3-voter got higher reputation.
Either way to me it is unintuitive. Oh, and I did take some snapshots of this weird behaviour but I do not know how to upload them to this reply (if even possible)

Hi,
it happens serveral times to me (I've also seen it at other solutions from members) that someone is downvoting all solutions (1) without any reason.
I'm asking me why and how to prevent this?
i.e. Find the Mac id Of client Machine[^]

I made a mistake when voting a comment. Is it possible to change or invalidate the vote value?

Refresh the page and revote.

Are privileges (what I can do or not do) decided based on how many points I have? If so is there an article which specifies which privileges will be enabled at what levels?

Apparently yes, see here. I'm a bit puzzled myself why this isn't part of a "rating and reputation FAQ".

Hi Chris,
I would like to ask you if it's possible to reveal who voted high and especially "who voted low without leaving a message".
It's very well said in the 'Code Project Rating and Reputation FAQ':
"A vote with no message doesn't help an author. A vote and a 'this is why I voted bad' helps an author improve. A high vote is just a "Thanks - well done!" and doesn't really require a comment suggesting improvements."
And I think that this is the right statement for messages in the message boards, too.
I'm a little annoyed about people who are hiding behind the anonymity of this voting system.
Don't get me wrong please: I do not doubt their right to vote bad or "low" but I doubt that this "just voting bad without leaving a reason" (=stabbing a person in his back) is helpful.
Thank you very much for your answer in advance.
Cheers,
Jochen

Only in the forums and when voting in Questions and Answers is it possible to vote low without leaving a comment. It's done this way to avoid overloading the discussions with noise, especially in contentious threads. Articles and tips require comments on low votes.
Revealing low voters on forum postings will result in nothing more than voting wars. It's just not worth it.

Sorry, that I didn't explain what I had in mind. I wasn't thinking thinking about revealing that in the forum as a message in the usual form.
The general idea was that one can move the mouse pointer to the part of your their own message where the vote is shown and get something like a 'Profile popup' that shows the message board name of the user and how he voted (and [?] a very short message - a sentence or two).
I might very well be that you assess the human nature better than I can, but I wasn't thinking of a voting war but of something else: I'd expect that those users who like to vote low and hide behind the anonymity would stop voting low because they do not want toreveal themselves (otherwise they would have left a message [in addition to their low vote].
It's a different kettle of fish but's it's a little like in this "meeting experiment":
Everyone who wants to say something has to get up. It's amazing how short meetings get when people have to leave the "comfort zone" (=sitting at the table, voicing sth. under their breath). This helps especially to prevent meetings in which everything has already been said but not by everyone ...
Thanks again.
Cheers,
Jochen

I understand your idea now, and the meeting analogy is good. However, in meetings you don't get to dress up in a lion suit and hide your identity, or invite along a pretend friend you made up 2 minutes ago to vote for you at the meeting.
