Thank you very much for your reply, but I've updated the same biography text after I've encountered that it was missing from my profile. And, also, at the present moment, I see that someone has logged onto my profile from a different device. Also, if you've monitored my own activity, you would notice that the time-zone for my profile changes to UTC+2 Jerusalem every time I set the correct time zone. It means that someone else is currently logged on my profile and manually changes the time-zone and other preferences.
Specifically, I'm so much afraid that my account will be unlawfully deleted by someone else who's presently logged in.
I've sent two e-mail messages to Chris Maunder and Sean Ewington with my question about account security issues, but have not received any replies yet.
Can you help me out to protect and secure my account at CodeProject I so much treasure.
I'd kindly so much appreciate.

I'm not staff, so I don't have access to monitor your activity or help you secure your account.
If you suspect someone else has logged in to your account, you should probably change your password.
I haven't seen the link to see which devices I'm logged in from yet. Does it have the option to log out all other sessions?

Sorry for giving this question, but I've already changed the password for my account the number of times, but useless. Also, I've many times logged out all other sessions, but they still reappear. I don't know what to do at this point.

And also, can you tell the stuff about this problem and my question ?

We've discussed this offline (and apologies for the late response - I was up north saying Hi to the bears and deer flies). However, the timezone thing warrants some explanation:
Each time you start a new session we look at your current timezone as reported by your browser and update your settings automatically. Our timezone detection is really only a GMT offset detection so a single offset value (in hrs:mins) corresponds to multiple timezones, and we try and pick the one most likely to be correct. Obviously it's hit and miss.
As long as the timezone offset is correct there's no problem.
cheers

Thank you very much for your detailed answer to my question and clarification.

The problem is being resolved, at this point.
Thanks a lot over again. My very kind appreciation.

Do you have any idea how many problems the CodeProject staff have to work on at any one time? Please learn some patience, your problems are no more important than anyone else's. And this one in particular is hardly a show stopper.

Thanks for clarification, I'm very sorry for speeding up the problem resolution process. Next time, I will patiently waiting for the problem to be resolved.

I've looked at your account and can't see anything strange.
Earlier today we had a number of errors on our caching server that might have resulted in your data being misread.
Since you have 'fixed' your biography, I can't determine if it was a database or a caching issue.
If it happens again, please let us know and let us check it out before you do anything.
Thanks,
Matthew

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?

Rating helpful answers is nice, but saying thanks can be even nicer.

So every now and then I accidentally post to the wrong level (i.e., wrong person). It would be great to be able to drag it over to the right spot in the thread.

And how is about to think first _little bit more_ before post?

That's not the modern way to do things: check QA where thinking is done after failing exams...

Well - not all of us enjoy your degree of perfection in absolutely every event.

What about a "Are you sure you want to post there? Or do you maybe need some ![Java | [Coffee]](https://codeproject.global.ssl.fastly.net/script/Forums/Images/coffee.gif) more?" Popup that comes when you hit submit?

Now jokes apart... can't you delete your own posts? If I recall it correctly, there is the option to delete propietary content (as long as there is not other answers to you post).
If you notice you have posted it in the wrong place, use "edit", copy all the content, delete the message, hit the correct "reply" where it should go, paste the content, publish.

I know that particular route - I was just making a suggestion.
Think of it like moving a file between folders.
You could, instead, copy it and then delete the original - but it's nicer to do the move in a single step.

I'll add it to the TODO, but I'd have to be honest and say it's way, way down the list.
At a database level it's trivial. At a UI level it's more involved given our current UI layer.

No problem - I won't chased from CP that easy.
Really - as there's a work-around - it certainly isn't a priority (unless you have a eureka moment and realize it has beneficial side effects).
Ooops. Got to go - it's nearly time for "Thought of the Day"

Yep, just fixed that myself.
I always need to fix my blogs once they are pulled to CP.
Usually not much, but tags and code (for which I now use GitHub Gists) and such.
My previous blog was linked to Amazon AWS even though it's about Azure and I'm not even mentioning AWS

...collapse the Lounge forum so you only see the initial post of each item?
It would be nice if a user could do that then you could scan down through more unique posts per page.
