Yeah but think about this statement, and I hate to be epicurean but ... "I'm not a spammer"! Why would I be ostracized for posting a legimate spin on an old post. Particularly if it answers the question?
I think data is timeless.
The flip side of closing a post because it's been answered is that he same question gets reposted.
And consider HOW I got to this post and added my answer.
And why are "Solutions" numbered?
And ...

Hello everyone,
Since last many days,i found many questions where OP didn't show any effort. They just ask for the code or copy paste the error in Quick Answers section.I think one more reporting option should be there like, No Effort, in order to let others/the one who manages all this stuff internally know that OP have not put a single try.Refer to these snapshots.

Its not an abuse or spam,question is complete as nothing needs to be added,not off topic and also can't be considered as Not a question. Only effort can be explained in order to resolve it,that is remaining, so NO EFFORT.

It was edited at the time i got the snapshot. Actual question was just 'PLEASE PROVIDE ANSWER'. This can be reported as Unclear/ Incomplete,but also as NO EFFORT.
It will be much beneficial for everyone if we have this mechanism.

Thank you.

The primary function of the reporting system is an intervention of the CodeProject team to stop something the members of the site can't.
In a lot of these cases, neither you nor I can convince a lazy OP to improve their question. Unless you're suggesting this be a feature to mark that user's profile for being "No Effort," whereby 5 votes will de-activate their account, I think the appropriate action here is to report the question as unclear/incomplete, upon which 3 votes from 3 members will close that question.
If I come across an unclear/incomplete report on a bad question with no improvement, and no answer, that's been sitting there for awhile, I delete it.
There are too many reports as is. All we really need is a "bad question" report. The reason is immaterial. The bottom line is, is this question going to stay, or is it going to go?
Thanks,
Sean Ewington

Sorry for digging old things.
Blank Quote text[^] & the same option for Q/A section solution box. Please. It's really tough to copy-paste the quote HTML every time.

Thanks for this but you have exe? Unfortunately I don't have VS in my laptop now.

I did not provide an executable as there are different options to be chosen at compile time. You can get a copy of Visual C++ Express from Microsoft, to build it.

Just seen that Michael Haephrati is in place 0 for top expert in 24 hours. (I don't remember ever seeing his name in the top 5 before, hence the closer examination)
A quick check of his profile seems to indicate that he hasn't made a post in a programming(or general) forum since 16-Aug.
A further look at his QA profile appears to indicate the most recent post to have been made on the 12th.

Might be a good example of "sitting back counting the money" - it could be due to some very nice publications he has made and the score could be entirely based on upvotes ...

I liked your reply (Yes. Today I have published a new article about NT Services), but where is the money???

Ahhh! Never even considered that. Yet again, thanks SoMad.
