After I deleted my account[^] today, my profile states that my account had been deleted because I would've been abusive or a troll - which is not the case, just a single member apparently reported me for whatever random reason a few days ago, unrelated to my voluntary deletion of my profile.
I would like to know that authors I've left comments on their articles or members I've had discussions with in the forums will not have to assume that I've been kicked for being abusive or a troll when clicking on my user name. So I would kindly ask for a fix for that. Merci!

May I ask you if your decision was motivated by something that happened on this site?
Please forgive me if you find my question intrusive ; you obviously don't have to justify your choice. You are a valuable member of this community, IMHO (I mostly base this assumption on the answers you provided in QA), and your leaving just arouse my curiosity.
Wish you every success in your future, anyway.
There are two kinds of people in the world: those who can extrapolate from incomplete data.

Thank you, much appreciated
Your other question: clicky[^]

I've fixed it by removing that vote, and I'm going to change it so that it's harder for this to happen again.

For your information:
This is the contents of the mail I sent to Code Project's Sean Ewington and his answer:

Hello Sean,
Just for your information, as I have no screenshots to prove it again*, but the PVS.AVPlayer article's views went down by approximately 1.500 views.
That's more than twice the amount of views since you posted the last update for the article! :'(
* sometime ago (1-2 years) the views went down with approx. 18.000
Greetings, Peter

Hey Peter,
Could you please make a comment about this on the site bugs forum? You will need one of the devs to fix it for you, like what happened here:

Fixed.
We've been working with reducing the SQL load due to logging and a few articles got there PageView counts mangled, your included.
We've attempted to correct these, but the number we calculated might be a little low on some.
I recalculated yours from the logging database directly, which doesn't work for very old articles. Yours was young enough.

I need some help with my blog again 
I wrote a new blog yesterday, and after that installed a plugin for code formatting. The plugin messed up my article pretty good, so I deleted it and that fixed my blog. Now the thing is CodeProject got my messed up version of the article. It was still in moderation queue, so I thought it would be best to delete it and have the fixed version pulled to CodeProject. That was yesterday evening and it still hasn't been pulled. Is it getting pulled once and am I out of luck? Can I trigger CP to pull my blog somewhere? Thanks.
|

There is a trigger. I pulled it. It said no new content 
I don't think it does repeat pulls of posts. What about posting it as an article?
Thanks,
Sean Ewington

And then could you make it show up as a blog post again? It's really a bit short for an article and I want it to be clear that it's a blog.
|
|
|
|
|
Sadly no, I can't create a blog entry out of an article. It has to start that way.
Thanks,

Ok, I abused my old blog. Created it there and pulled it to CP. Will edit the blog manually so it looks as if it comes from my new blog. This was supposed to be my first blog that wasn't pulled from that site though 
At least I know not to pull this trick again...
Thanks!

Putting in a 'Force Re-pull' action would likely be a good idea, don't you agree @Chris-Maunder?

Doesn't make sense to update an article with the same content.
I'll dig in.

When you go to the View.aspx page of a member with a closed account, you see the notice that it has been closed, and who closed it. But when you go to the /Members/... page of the same member, you don't get that notice, you just see the message that CP is unable to find the requested member.
Can the /Members/... page please show this notice too?
The quick red ProgramFOX jumps right over the Lazy<Dog>.

If a member has been deleted then their username is now available again for someone else to use. Navigating to their profile using a username URL must therefore be disabled.

Just tried to upload a new article. Entered, title, sub heading, etc. and body of the article in the editor, using the "source" view (where you work in html).
When I hit preview, I see my new title, but the body of the article is still the default body (with instructions to authors). Saving the article as a draft and then resuming work on it results in a blank body during preview.

Update: Fixed.
There's a bug whereby the ACE colourising text editor isn't passing it's changes along to the HTML form that's being posted. It only updates the information to be sent when you either turn off the Ace editor or switch back to WYSIWYG.
I've spent the last several hours trying to fix it or get a work around.
For now, switch back to WYSIWYG before submitting or previewing.
cheers

Under the Professional Profile Settings there is a Social Networks section in which we can add various social profiles.
I'm just wondering would anyone else find it interesting to have GitHub, BitBucket, Assembla, etc. profiles listed there as well?

Hi,
I would like my account to be deleted.
I had searched in the forums and this was the appropriate place for this post, according to
http://www.codeproject.com/Questions/244833/Delete-My-Account-As-Soon-As-Possible
Thanks,
Please send me an email when possible

There is now a way to accomplish this yourself:
- Go to your settings page: https://www.codeproject.com/script/Membership/Modify.aspx[^] (or in the dropdown from your profile name)
- Check the checkbox below your profile picture ("Close my account")
- Save your settings (button at the bottom)
|
|
|
|
|
The bad thing being, once you've learned how to do it, and done it, you will never need it anymore again. 
|
|
|
|
|
|
Then what purpose should that checkbox serve?
I guess it might not necessarily work instantly, because there might be some things to cleanup, and maybe the deletion is executed by a scheduled job or something?
