Why did you edit my tip, and what exactly did you change?

Looks like small formatting updates. Names of files wrapped in EM instead of CODE tags etc.
I think she's just trying to make your work even more perfect.cheers,

I don't even use EM tags. I wonder how they got there to begin with...

One wouldn't think that was possible. .45 ACP - because shooting twice is just silly

Use the version compare feature to see what was changed. I took a quick look and she changed some minor things like :
windows to Windows
.Net to .NET
They are both valid though pedantic corrections

Hi John,
I hope you are aware Chris & Co have meticulously chosen Deeksha to edit your tip; as you can read here[^], she enjoys doing that to you:
Editing articles written by smart and experienced programmers on The Code Project is a job she loves and it keeps her updated on the latest technologies.

I deleted an original post, and then deleted the answer to it, and got this error:
Error: Object reference not set to an instance of an object.. Ticket: 2144851. Server: Web17
EDIT ================
The problem is that the Delete link remains on the page even after the original message has been deleted..45 ACP - because shooting twice is just silly

If you provide an answer to a Quick Question, and the OP does not fully understand, or needs to ask a question, we need some mechanism by which you can be notified. At present I have had a few cases where they post an answer (either accidentally thinking it would reach me, or as the only mechanism they could find) trying to get further information. It wasn't until they edited my answer that I got an email, which alerted me to the problem.
If you look at the other forums, the "question / answer / clarify / respond" cycle is the norm - I think we need something like this for Quick Answers too. (Ignoring the fact posting an answer that is a request still counts as an answer toward your reputation...)You should never use standby on an elephant. It always crashes when you lift the ears. - Mark Wallace

I too was about to post on this line.
At times the questions aren't clear. Looks like posting a message at the bottom of the question page isn't sufficient. Posting query in response to ask what n why in answers section doesnt sound good.
There should be a channel to inform enquirer to update question with more detail without asking it via answers.
|

|
|
This is a popular request and it's a priority for us. We'll be implementing a small comments section beneath each answer, including the question. When a comment is made the author of the question or answer will be notified.

Sounds good!
Looking forward for the feature!

He's not just answer the question, he then follows it up with the same answer again a little time later, just reworded.
Look at the one about triggers in assemblies he did.
Can someone with suitable rights go delete the duplicated answer at least, and then insert a size 10 boot in his rectum.

I deleted both answers, and edited his original post. That's all I can do. Chris is going to have to take steps..45 ACP - because shooting twice is just silly

I just went to the Quick Answers forum - he's still at it[^].
 Me, I'm dishonest. And a dishonest man you can always trust to be dishonest.
Honestly. It's the honest ones you want to watch out for...

There are at times that a similar question is asked after a gap of time. Or a similar answer may suffice two different question. It would be good if we have a search functionality in 'My Posts' or something like search a keyword in all the posts posted by me.
This would just not help in a situation mentioned above, also if we want to have a look ourselves for something specific.
Just a thought-user experience i came across!

|
|
|
Also i think it will be a new feature
|
|
|
|

That probably would be useful. I'll add it to the list.
|
|

Just going through our TODO list and wanted to le4t you know the search page now has the "My Stuff" option for searching through posts.

Somebody looked at my profile and discovered that I have morphed into a group with no members. I assure you that my member is fine and in working order. Soap Box 1 is a group. Do I have to be a group cause I started it?

No.
I have made your member anti-social.cheers,

But not my biography. It's still plagiarizing Soapbox 1.0
