Yes. If you vote a message as spam in the moderation queue you remove not only the messages, but the user account too...

OK I did not want to vote SA's message as spam nor ban him but I can see how it happened. I hope he is reinstated soon.

Not sure if it's allowed, but had to create a temporary account to report this. Anyway, I will close this once my original account is back.

I am impressed by this free book that a large group of Bulgarian, and, I assume, programmers from other other countries, produced, sponsored by Telerik's Academy): [^].
Does this "ring any bells" at CodeProject ?

If there are any instances of plagiarism in the book that you know of please let us know. I know the Telerik guys and they would not be happy with plagiarism in their work. I'm happy to talk to them about this if there is an issue.

I think Bill meant, if CP has any intentions to compile such a book...Like form the HTML, Android and IoT contest...

Thanks, KEP, you are absolutely correct, and I am going to revise the message title to be clear I am singing the book's (well the book as example of what can be done) praises.
cheers, Bill

Oh, Hi Chris, my bad: I should have been clear that I was expressing my admiration for this effort, not "reporting" it for any reason. To my knowledge Telerik supported this effort in some ways; they're listed as a sponsor.
I've added that book to my list of recommended resources for any future QA posts in response to newcomers who are in the one-eyed-cat-looking-in-a-seafood-store state.
I listed the link to the free .pdf download of this book on the free-stuff forum here, and promptly got down-voted
cheers, Bill
p.s. I think Chris Sells is still at Telerik; I worked as a technical editorial consultant on his Win Forms (Addison-Wesley) book years ago and drove him crazy.

Ah - thanks Bill.
With regards to the downvote: A book isn't really a tool. Kinda, sorta, but not really a tool. Maybe we need a "Good Books" forum.
Chris Sells is now at Google.
cheers

I know that he and I don't see eye to eye, but is there any way to restore his account?

Fixed.

Today I went to Quick Answers tab, and tried to provide him with a suggestion for how he might be able to complete the project. I was not able to find any button to open the comment box. Is it a change in the website, removal of the comments for the questions?
Might be helpfull for viewing: http://s30.postimg.org/b7u7x36y9/Screenshot_58.png[^]

And I'm using Mozilla SeaMonkey 2.30 on Window 7 64bit for x86-64. Same thing. I think it happened today.

I am experiencing the same from after the dns resolution problem from 09.01, around 12:00CET.

Even for me in Safari on iPad mini, the same case. Looks like a bug to me.
|
|
|
|
|
Same on IE11 and Android (and others previously reported)
|
|
|
|
|
Same in all my browsers: IE, Chrome, Firefox, Opera, Safari - all latest stable versions...
