I don't see that offering a tinyURL service helps establish a brand. We do code sharing and developer help. We're not bit.ly.

In settings I see a section called 'Your Anonymous Token:'. But if a token has got divulged inadvertently, is there a way to reset it?

Question for the site admins: what is the purpose of this token?
|
|
|
|

It looks like CP is intending to offer its services through other websites like Yahoo/FB/Twitter Authorization. See 'security' tab in 'My Settings'.

Ah, so they may offer a web service and your auth key gives you access. Makes sense. Thanks.

Yes. They ought to equip a feature to reset the access token if it gets compromised. That is missing now. Also a feature to disable API access also would help fortify the account.

The token is currently unused. I'll add this feature to the TODO list.

Dear CP Team,
When members signup and/or post messages can you indicate the country and/or place they are posting from near the message and in their settings. That way it would make it more deterrent for abusers right?

Because you want to avoid all posts from Australians?
Let's judge members on their actions, not on their ethnicity.

I appreciate the proactive step in punishing the offenders but it is a reactive trend. How about sending a warning message which can help as a preventive measure. Isn't prevention better than cure always?

If I'm the type of person that would abuse the forum, why would you knowing my IP address and/or country be of any concern to me?
