Curious... look at this guy's[^] points... did he do download massive amounts of projects from the site?

Could be legit.
Some people only come here for the code samples. No biggie. This person has been here for over a year now.
[edit]
This person seems to have been active with Organizer points for approx. 90+ days. Downloading articles (unlimited point potential) plus the others could potentially bring this person in line with what they have in points, in a legit way.
Just along for the ride.

Look at the points values in the FAQ[^], I think it's most unlikely they could have done this in a month.

I was thinking more on the lines of 90+ days...not a month.
[edit] the graph is a little vague in details IMHO. However, I do see the point. I am sure Chris will come back with a no problem found status. 
Just along for the ride.

The jump in the graph looks more like 30 days (or even less) to me.

I know. That is why I don't think the graph is really that helpful.
I did the numbers and it is possible with the 90+ day scenario.
Like I said in my reply, Chris will most likely come back with no problems found.

Reason I point it out is because that's a huge jump in a short period of time... doesn't seem legitimate use. They could be copying source to post on another site. This probably also takes up bandwidth unnecessarily, I can't imagine why a single user would need to download that many projects in that time frame (other than to copy the site).

I 100% agree with you. 
However, questions like yours have come up in the past and have "almost" always been dismissed as legit...I have always questioned this, myself, secretly...so the hamsters can't hear.

See my comment to Slacker... I don't really see how this could be legitimate.

How do you find these guys?

Coincidence 
|
|
|
|
|
So you just typed in a random member id's profile? 
|
|
|
|
|
He's the first profile in the "who's who" page that I'm in... I noticed his high number of points with virtually no activity, then I clicked on the graph and noticed the time frame involved.
|
|
|
|
|
Thank you, that's the info I was after
|
|
|
|
|
Still sheer coincidence... I wasn't "looking" for suspicious activity, just stumbled onto him.

Option to export CP bookmarks. I found that around 1000 bookmarks in my account & I want to see that in single page(which is easy to view)

Hi, have they implemented this feature yet?
Whether I think I can, or think I can't, I am always bloody right!
|
|
|
|
|
Nope. Here I have posted a shameless bump[^]
IMO this is not a top priority. And admins have lot of items in their To-Do list. They're watching our messages always.

Would you please stop doing this? Why does it matter who deleted the question? What good would knowing do? Is revenge important to you? And no - yet again, it wasn't me, I tend not to frequent Q and A.
In future, you should remember that the CP team NEVER give out information like this, no matter how many times you ask.

You have been a CP member for nearly four years, it's about time you learned how the site works.
