If I knew how to pronounce Indian names, probably I could. But like the majority of this site (and indeed the internet in general) I don't. You would probably have similar problems with Welsh names! Besides, does use of a "female name" as your username on the internet mean that you are female? And should you be treated differently as a result?
The beauty of the internet is that your gender, race, religion, sexual orientation, political leanings, etc. does not matter: what and how you think is the important thing. You have no proof one way or the other that anyone you communicate with is male or female, black or white, gay or straight. I could easily be an Oriental female single parent amputee who votes for the death penalty for having Ginger hair, for all you know.

This member[^] posted 7 nonsense questions today for no other reason than he could accept his own answers posted at roughly the same time. I am thinking that he just wants to abuse the system to boot his rep. One "answer" he accepted was a copy/paste of the code from his "question".

Yeah. I accidently initially posted in wrong forum and I think that attracted the attention of the hamster brigade.

Why do people do this? (*) It's not like you can actually do anything with your points. I doubt any employer would give you a job based on your CodeProject "score", and certainly not without looking at how you came by it.
As Bruce Forsyth famously never said: What do points make? Sod all.
* Rhetorical question.

I assume that your question is rhetorical since we cannot know for absolute certain but here goes....
The user in question had been a member for 2+ years so my guess is that he went off his medication and went on a rampage of asking his own questions and then giving himself answers. Kind of like talking to himself only through posting in forums.

Do I know what "rhetorical" means?[^] 
Yeah, my post should probably have had the "rant" icon.

Seems to have stopped by now. Accounts are deleted but thanks to cache you can still post for about half an hour.
The signature is in building process.. Please wait...

I'm hoping Chris can perform some wizardry to either block him permanently, or have a quiet word. With a LART

It's ok - the hamsters have a legal department which will send him a cease-and-desist-and-take-it-down order.

I'm sure legal hamsters would be more fun! They would look like furry little vampires in wigs as they went for the throat!

It looks like all the Answers are gone while the account remains.
That's actually the opposite of an account I called attention to sometime last year. That account has recently gone away, but the 191 site driving Answers remain[^].

It's not 191 any more. I went through that entire list and spam-voted every post where he links to his own site. There was only 1 post where he didn't do that.
It's down to 150 now. They just about all have 2 votes. One more and they should drop off.

Down below 100 now.
