This guy: http://www.codeproject.com/script/Membership/View.aspx?mid=6731395[^]
He has answered 11 questions in total. Magically each of them has received 15 or more +5 votes... I don't think it is a stretch to assume that he is sock-puppet voting his answers.
His Tips/Tricks are following the same pattern.

True, but the articles only had a couple of upvotes when I last checked them.

was it a bug in cp? or hacking. I believe you need to put comment to cast vote in Article/Tip section right. and most of his article/tip receives 4-5 upvotes but total votes say 21 sounds like 15-17 votes automatically added to his account strange.
Noticed one more thing all of the 11 question he answered were marked as Favorite.

Commenting on the vote is only mandatory if you vote 1, 2, or 3.

Favourite happens automatically with upvotes.
Have a look at the reputation graph - that's a significantly sharp upswing in his rep points.

Are you saying this answer does not deserve 15 votes of 5?

The hamsters should be able to check from the IP addresses.
But it does look very suspicious to me!

I think we don't even need to know if a person is a sock-puppet of another. It the questions or answers have no real value (help, ideas, even trivial but potentially useful to someone) and are fake by its nature, on a regular basis, this is enough for a legitimate ban.
The fake activity is always bad, and the technical ways to fake do not matter. And a little experience is enough to tell silicon from good stuff.

I get the below message when i open the article.
This article has not yet been approved for publication by our membership. It should be available soon.
Please go to the ASP.NET Table of Contents to view the list of available articles in this section.
But I can still report the article. Is it OK to go ahead and report it without looking at it?

I cannot see them either, but I trust the top dog.

So do I. I was just not sure if its fine to report the articles without looking at them.

You can't report them if you can't see them. The report option is on the article itself.
|
|

Actually you can. I got the same message as __TR__ and above it there was a red reporting flag.
If this is not the way it is supposed to be (and I agree it seems wrong), then it should be fixed.
