I have recently posted an article and have been told by a number of work colleagues that they have been unable to vote on the article as the IP address has already been used to vote even when they are logged in.
"Someone at your IP address has already voted for this item."
I work in an enterprise environment where all internet traffic is managed via a dedicated proxy server. As such, all connections to CodeProject from the enterprise will be seen by CodeProject to be coming from a single IP address. I understand the reason why multiple votes from a single IP address are prevented, but I fail to see the reason why the IP restriction holds when multiple logins are used.
It is quite disheartening when the work put into creating an article is not able to be recognised by colleagues.

John, first of all, thank you for taking the time and effort to write an article for CodeProject. While I do sympathise with your frustration over your colleagues being unable to vote en masse for your article, the IP restriction was put in place to prevent a single person creating multiple accounts and using them to mass vote/downvote. Unfortunately, the measures mere made necessary because of idiots who try to abuse CodeProject. Sorry.

Thanks Pete for the explanation. I guessed that was the reason why that was the case.
Thankyou for the reply.

I also understand your frustration but I guess Pete explained quite well why this is necessary.

Why do you and you colleages not vote from your/their home computers to show the appreciation for the work done? Or alternatively from the smartphone (as long as you're not using the same wlan  ) (Yeah, not the easiest way but it would be a start)

If you really need to use an image, then post in in imageshack or any other images upload sites and then post the link in your question

If something has a solution... Why do we have to worry about?. If it has no solution... For what reason do we have to worry about?
Help me to understand what I'm saying, and I'll explain it better to you
Rating helpful answers is nice, but saying thanks can be even nicer.

This has been discussed ad naseum. If you can upload images, how can the site be kept work safe? As it stands, no image that is not suitable ever gets on the site, if it's a link then "clicker beware".

He posted quite a lot of answers, all with the same link - it was reported this morning, and I deleted the answers. His account has now also been closed.
You did the right thing, but in the wrong forum - there is a place for such reports which is here: http://www.codeproject.com/Forums/1652005/Spam-and-Abuse-Watch.aspx[^]
Well done on helping to keep the site clean!

I was going to report the following post in the article forum as spam (note: In case the post is gone, I am not stating the article is spam, just this particular post): Connect the Excel Database from C# .Net[^]
However, I am unable to do so because the red flag is not available and neither are the up-/down-vote arrows on any of the other posts.
I have checked this in the following browsers and the behavior is the same:
- Chrome v29
- Firefox v22 and v23
- IE 8 (both Compatibility Mode on and off)
I know it's a minor thing, but just in case this is not the only article with this issue...

I was wondering if there is a mobile version of this site? and if not, why not?
|
|
|
|
|
There is. If you connect with a mobile device you should land on the mobile version. if you do not: scroll to the bottom of the page and click on the "Mobile" Link (Bottom Left of the page)

Odd one for you - when I post in this forum from my Nexus 7, it immediately switches to mobile view, and I have to manually scroll all the way down to switch back to Full Site view.
Doesn't seem to happen anywhere else on the site that I've seen.
