Hey, I am borrowing my friend's account to ask a question here, why was my account block?
I was not using CodeProject, as I did, for more like 3 days. I was busy in my own routine and for me using CodeProject was just like once in 3 hours. I posted replies, to notifications and the last thing I remember being posted here was a technical blog post (which was automatically pulled).
Now that I tried to visit CodeProject to see any thing interesting, and I am seeing this error message saying my account has been de-activated. Can I get any help, as what was wrong done by me this time? I didn't post spam, didn't try to start a mess around and yet my account was blocked and was report to be troll 10 times. :/

I had similar experience earlier this year... it's not fun, I know 
Probably just means that some gang of real trolls decided to vote you out behind your back 
Anyway, take your plea to the admins, like @Sean-Ewington or @Chris-Maunder
They'll be able to assess your activity and resurrect your account once your innocence is confirmed.
When it happened to me, Sean agreed I had done absolutely nothing obnoxious and reinstated my account within the day, I think.

In case it's useful here's a link to your messages[^] and blog posts[^].

Thanks a lot for your support CarefulCoder.
Yes, I did the same last night before I went to sleep, and Sean, in the morning (PKR), replied saying there was nothing wrong done by me. So, he gave me back my account. He said the same, it was some sort of old trail of reportings, because I had a quarell with a user back then, maybe that caused this havoc.
Anyways, now I am back, so feeling good!

Hi.> I’ve recently uploaded my article C#.NET: How To Implement IEnumerable<t> Interface to Create Custom Collections of Data, Not Using IEnumerator<t> Derived Objects to codeproject.com.
In some time I’ve found the message [My vote of 1] Huh? under “Comments and Discussions” from the member SledgeHammer01, that is arguing that the ideas described in my article are basically wrong and there’s the other way how to particular implement IEnumerable<t> interface in C# other than I’ve discussed. I’ve then replied him with the number of messages explaining that I’m actually right and it’s the normal way how to do it. Actually, there are two ways how to do what my article is about. One of them is that I discuss in
my article, and the other one proposed by SledgeHammer01. Both of them are at the most part correct.
Finally, the discussion ended up with the following phrase in his last message:
“I still don't get what you mean by old pattern and new pattern. I think you are smoking something and got a bad batch my friend Smile | . Just utter nonsense.”
So, my question is can you remove that malicious vote for my article as well as the posts of this member under “Comments and Discussions” ??
Waiting for your reply.

It's not malicious, and it's not abuse - it's one persons opinion on your article. And everyone is allowed an opinion.
I'd say his points are for the most part correct, and well stated. Your article is factually wrong on the points he brought up.
But...even if he wasn't right, the "vote of one" isn't malicious - it's a reflection of his opinion of your article. It happens: it might be worth reading what he says and re-reading your article in the light of it. You can always edit your article to correct factual errors (and preferably credit him for the changes) and he might change his vote...

Thanks for your reply, but what actually means this: "I think you are smoking something and got a bad batch my friend Smile | Smile | . Just utter nonsense.” ???

You'd have to ask him that, but from the at the end, I'd assume he means he is joking.
You may have to develop a thicker skin if that kind of comment is going to upset you; I've had a lot, lot worse - here and professionally - and it's normally a form of affection instead of abuse. Take a chill pill and relax a little!

Why is the user starting this thread nuked?

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

I suspect he's been nuked because of comments he's made on the article. I had a look at the article yesterday and he wasn't prepared to listen to anyone. That could have had something to do with it.

Don't know, but the article has been deleted - don't know if that was the OP throwing a hissy fit because people disagreed with him - some of his comments IIRC where getting a bit close to the edge, and he may have attracted the Trigger Happy Police by posting here...

...and do NOT put your email address in a public forum. The only people who will ever use it are spammers.

That's not spam - spam is a specific problem: advertising or site driving.
It may be abuse (rep point harvesting), but there is nothing against a member solving his own problem and posting the solution for others to see. It becomes abuse when the member is posting questions only in order to do that.
Two instances in two minutes - that looks like rep point harvesting, and abuse.
It's important to know the difference, as they have separate reports, and separate report counters. reporting abuse as spam will mean it takes longer to get rid of the user as some people will vote "spam" and others who look more closely will vote "abuse".
