I support the view. The blog page owner should have absolute control over any/all content posted on the page. Of course, this comes within CodeProject Terms of Service and appropriate laws of land (Toronto and the country of the post owner).

No, not total control. Deleting, yes, but editing and posting on another's behalf won't be added.

Regret if my phrase 'Total Control' meant this. This wasn't intended anyway. Posting on another's behalf should be only restricted to CP Administrator and a chosen set of moderators reserved for specific purposes.

This page[^] has broken layout.
If it helps, here's the screenshot[^]. As you can see, green menu is complete mess, but it doesn't happen all the time.
And yes, I tried CTRL+F5 
Mostly, when you see programmers, they aren't doing anything. One of the attractive things about programmers is that you cannot tell whether or not they are working simply by looking at them. Very often they're sitting there seemingly drinking coffee and gossiping, or just staring into space. What the programmer is trying to do is get a handle on all the individual and unrelated ideas that are scampering around in his head. (Charles M Strauss)

Suggestion: it would be nice to have an rss feed around the Code Insider Daily newsletter...

Since it appears that articles previously rejected are re-appearing with little or no changes, could we look at maybe creating a page of rejected articles and some of the reasons why, so if something looks familiar we can go back and check?
|
|
|
|
|
Taking it little further, the author who has frequently rejected articles should be still quarantined (since there is a high probability of an abuse of a substandard article posting by him) and made to go through a still tougher scrutiny.
This should be something similar to banking systems where an account which suffers frequent dishonor of checks would be under close scrutiny.

The only problem I see with that is them just creating a new account. It would be nice to user name/article title/reason rejected/link to original article. If you could sort on name/article we could identify abusers. I'd keep more track of them but if the article has already been removed then I don't know about it.

There is a serious bug in the article submission wizard at http://www.codeproject.com/script/Articles/SubmitStep1.aspx
If you don't enter anything and click "Next", you get this ugly error!

No. I am presented with a ValidationSummary demanding BaseName, ArticleTitle and a one line description. It even has a serverside validation for blank spaces:
The basename contained web-unfriendly characters. The name has been changed from " a" to "__a"<br />
Subsection must be in a valid state.<br />
A section needs to be selected. <br />

Apple Safari.
I just tried the same thing in IE and the validation works.
Any idea why it doesn't work in Safari?

I have not got any RSS feed from the Lounge for the last few days, and if I check the feed through IE it appears to be empty.

Banning him and he comes right back. Time probably for Chris Maunder to set the legal team a target.

Pimpdog was never banned, if he was his name is back in use again
You're right maybe legally you could prevent him from posting abusive content over and over again
|
|
|
|
|
Pimpdog, CSS, Henize etc, if they all point to the same person, and that might be a little difficult to legally prove short of seizing and forensic analysis of computer equiupment. However if proof can be established, then surely there are legal solutions to this problem.
But will these legal solutions be more costly than the alternative of putting up with his anti-social behaviour whatever his name was or happens to be/become.

I think if you ban him when he appears, he may get bored and move on.
I'd love to see which orginating IP Addresse(s) he's coming from because I'd be be able to stop him from opening another account.

Little difficult though not impossible task right? At least from Asian countries, ISPs mostly give dynamic IPs to users when they connect to the Internet. Hence we run risk of blocking genuine users from the region, if we resort to IP-based bans.

He's from the states, and every IP address I've had from an ISP has been static.
