He was probably headed in the direction of being kicked off by his peers, but I pulled the trigger. Someone who values an article being published over it being published correctly and has no regard or understanding for plagiarism despite multiple explanations isn't someone we can let run amok.
I've replied to one of the many threads he made this morning here: http://www.codeproject.com/Messages/4786938/Re-Plagiarised-would-be-article-posted-again.aspx[^]
He may yet return, but only once an understanding of plagiarism is properly demonstrated.
Thanks,

And he is still trying: he started this thread with "I am new to CodeProject and started writing article from last 2-3 months..." when the account he is complaining was removed was seven years old. If you cannot work out in that time that we don't like plagiarism...

Point accepted.
Are his other 2 articles his own?

No idea - haven't looked (and can't, on a closed account). But with his current liberal attitude to copy'n'paste that I would suspect not...and would go through them with a fine tooth comb...

How to Implement Max Length in WPF, Entity Framework Using MVVM Architecture[^]
WPF - Multiple Validation on Single Control[^]
These are my two article please check if it is copy paste work, if found anything please delete them also. These are still available at code project.
Also it does not matter my article is posted or no or my account is deleted or not. The more hurting is your comments and your attitude towards me is like you are treating with criminal.
My current article on which whole scene is created was with title ".net 4.5 Zip with password Feature" this title itself is so unique that none of the site has any info on this. Infact Microsoft has not given any word because password feature is not available in .net library.
I will also prove your statement is wrong on "his majority of work is not his" just give me a day.
By the way this is the link of original article submitted second time on which all this scene is created.
https://drive.google.com/file/d/0B-qQaYNJh6CWTG1fYy12TGhtMjg/edit?usp=sharing[^]
I am here just because getting a title of thief/spammer is very hurting. And I will try my best to remove that title.

The trouble is that a good reputation is very hard to get, and very easy to lose.

yes I’ve been a member of the codeproject for 7 years! I guess this should be taken positively, as if I wanted to spam/steal, I would have started doing that the time I created the account. I’ve created this account when I started my career in IT 7 years back , and since then used this account to read and download the really cool stuff here.
It is only recently that I’ve gathered enough courage and commitment to write an article. Though as I understand, I may not have done it in the most "legal" or "professional" way, but you know I’ll learn. I may have made mistakes, but that is how everyone starts, and I expected the team at codeproject to support me or at least be constructive in the feedback, so that I’ll learn and help others as well.
This is why I wrote "I am new", and this team picked it up, colored it and posted without giving any thought to situation in hand, and person in question.

Why cant the Admin's just block the account and/or article? Why must the member be completed locked out (account deleted)?
Just block the guy. Let him learn from the mistakes - only unblock him ounce he has made amends?
Yes: If you repeatedly keep breaking the "law" (say 2 or three times on the same article) - then lock the account out.
Does this feature not exist? Is this not a better "Admin" practice?
I was locked out once before for making 1 miss guided mistake. Could you not have just blocked the account?

Hi Sean and mod team,
I did not want to extend this thread further and kill everyone's time.
I’m sorry for creating a scene, which I never intended. I do believe that your Mod team is there to keep the forum clean and free of stolen/bogus stuff, and I acknowledge they indeed do a great work.
Still I am very surprised as well as hurt with the way this particular instance was mitigated by your team. There could have been better ways to sort this then deleting the account and posting misleading comments for me.
First off, please try and understand that if I ever wanted to steal contents/post bogus articles, there are multiple ways to do it. I could create a 1000 random accounts and post articles/or bot post stuff. I don’t know why you failed to trust me in the first place.
Secondly, yes I’ve been a member of the codeproject for 7 years! I guess this should be taken positively, as if I wanted to spam/steal, I would have started doing that the time I created the account. I’ve created this account when I started my career in IT 7 years back , and since then used this account to read and download the really cool stuff here.

This is why I wrote “I am new”, and your team picked it up, colored it and posted without giving any thought to situation in hand, and person in question.
All said and done, please take this feedback with an open heart. All I request you is to trust your members. I’m neither a thief nor a spammer. I still believe IN your team and code project, thus if you trust me on the above points, please restore my account. I’m suggesting this since I definitely did not want it to end this way, and don’t want to remember codeproject as something to avoid. I love to visit your site, and I want to continue to do so without remembering some sour incident. Over to you!
PS: Special thanks to Blue to at least attempt to understand the issue from my point of view. God bless!
Thanks,
Rohit

Well the legal perspective is one but plagiarism is and always has been an ethical no-no. If anyone wants to enter a professional arena they must learn that. http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Plagiarism[^]
Does this also apply for example to answers in the Q&A?

You seem to have replied to the wrong person. Please don't attribute words to me that I did not say.

The alt-text says 'Form me!', whereas I think it should be 'Fork me!'
I only saw this as Firefox failed to load that image for some reason.
What do you get when you cross a joke with a rhetorical question?

Well spotted, but I'm slightly disappointed you didn't suggest the other alternative.
Then again lack of sleep has given me the humour of a 12 year old at this point.
Moving on... ahem.

Trying to reply to a post, I select text in the original message and click on the 'quote' button. I get a message box about no text selected. Another odd part of the behavior is that it seemed like you could click on the entire body of the original message and drag it about.

Just did this on IE11.

Chris, I've noticed the same issue if the selected text includes any smilies. If smilies are selected with the text, then the Quote button gives the message that no text is selected.
The difficult we do right away...
...the impossible takes slightly longer.

Ah - thank you. Didn't think to check that.
It's on the TODO[^]

Hi guys,
Don't know if you guys know tldrlegal.com, but it's a great site to look up and quickly understand software licenses.
It would be great if you could add your CPOL license there.
PS - I have no affiliations with tldrlegal.com what-so-ever. Just a site I constantly refer to..
Best,
Erez
