Well thanks so much for reminding me to keep a watch on the threads I posted to.
To keep in line with the CCC I posted today: "Oh gosh I'm so grateful, I really needed that."

There was a suggestion that adding "Modified" to the title was redundant and annoying. The message body itself contains an indication as to whether the message was modified.

Hi
I have posted some questions about asp.net mvc and it is related to MS 70 486 exam. I 'm a junior developer with experience in C# and asp.net (don't experience exp in ASP.net MVC).my company want me to that exam with in a month.this is the only place i know about people who have very good knowledge in programming.so that is why asked a help from them to find some answers.they closed my thread some said "this is not the place to do your home work" and so on.
i know the answers but im not sure about them.because i don't have a good knowledge in mvc and i was unable to find answers through internet so i have nothing to do no place to get a help. that is why i decided to post in code project.
i suggest to open another section for certification.That will help for beginners.
Thanks.

Thumbrule : Post questions according to the guidelines and it won't get closed e.g. You know the answer but you are not sure about it. You asked the question how to do...which does...please help me. There are very less chance that someone will be providing you the reasonable answer and it will be closed within hours.
Further, Certification requires a very good command over specific technology regardless of which Certification it is.

I know the question you mean: Help me to find answers[^] - it was me that told you we don;t do your homework.
And when you post a list of homework questions and nothing else at all except a subject "Help me to find answers" you have to expect that we will treat it as your homework - because let's be honest, that's exactly what it is. And we don't do your homework, because it helps no one in the long run.
If you can't answer those questions with all the time and Google you need then you certainly aren't going to pass the exam when you have limited time, and no internet access...
I don't agree with it being closed as "spam or abuse", but that's another matter.

Please see the code sample in my answer, this one: How to update UI from other threads?[^].
The "ghost" tags "p", "div" and "pre" appeared inside the code sample (<pre>). Note that the tag "p" never appears in the source, it is inserted during submission, created from the end-of-line characters and then escaped. As to the other tags, "code" comes from outside of "pre"; and I didn't see unbalanced tags.
It looks like a regression bug to me; recently, it worked correctly.

Indeed, I also found this happening in one the articles that I was moderating yesterday but I thought it was something author has messed up with.

OK, that's seriously annoying.
CommonMark is meant to fix the issues inherent in other Markdown implementation while being true to the core ideas of Markdown. However, if it can't even understand that when it's inside a PRE block it should not apply Markdown transformations (PRE means "preformatted", after all) then it's dead to me.
Disabling Markdown in QA and reverting back to MarkdownSharp.
This makes me sad.

Negative result is still much better than nothing. 
Thank you for the answer and editing my post as well. I noticed another thing: < and > were escaped inside "pre" element, so it was rendered as < and > so I changed them back to actual angular bracket characters. (Your edition of my post left them as such.) Will it be this way since this moment of time? I mean, without using "encode" seen on the menu above…

How it is right now is how it will be for QA for the foreseeable future.
I am working on a Markdown parser (yeah, and I put bamboo slivers under my fingernails for fun, too) to provide us with a Markdown processor that's flexible, fast and allows control of odd Markdown decisions. It won't be ready for a number of weeks though.

Thank you. If I may, my opinion: we need consistency much more than the advanced features. If we simply had exactly the same markup features in all posts, even comments, it would be the best. (Even if it required using original HTML. I understand that it would not cover syntax coloring, which could be done on top of it.)

What CommonMark parser did you use?

I just looked at the CommonMark spec, and I agree, that is a very stupid decision.

You may want to look at CMarkSharp[^], a wrapper around a C CommonMark library that parses to an AST that can then be manipulated to get the desired outcome. The wrapper supports all features of the native library.
What do you think?

All QA comments seem to have lost their line-breaks this evening. Was this a deliberate decision, or an oversight?

Neither. "It worked in testing". I'm looking into it now to see what's happening, but that's certainly not the intent.

When typing Answer, the preview don't like if there is more than 1 piece of code and get corrupted. When answer is validated, display is OK.
When improving the answer, preview is corrupted differently.
Using <span class="highlight"></span> in a piece of code can get really complicated and almost impossible to improve (edit).

The current method of dealing with Spam messages and their authors is somewhat labour intensive. The discoverer has to create a new message in the forum with a link to the spam message, and the spammer's account. It also has the drawback that spam messages disappear quicker than the spammers. This means we mostly have to take it on trust that our fellow spam hunters have correctly identified the perp.
This is probably too much to ask but ... how about something along the lines of:
- When a message is flagged as spam, it is immediately moved to the Spam and Abuse forum.
- Any message in this forum can be flagged as not-spam, and returned whence it came.
- Every additional spam flag following the initial one gets added to a (weighted) count.
- When the message count reaches a sufficient level, both message and spammer are removed.
I'm not sure how QA messages could fit into such a system, but the forums seem to be the main target of spammers these days.

I like your thinking. How about something cleaner:
Whenever someone marks a message as spam it goes into the same spam moderation queue that all automatically marked spam goes into. That way we have a single system, and a single point of reference for spam.

That's fine as far as it goes, but it still means we have to add a message somewhere to identify the account that posted it. Getting rid of the messages is easy, getting rid of the spammers is somewhat less so. But I'm sure you experts will come up with something brilliant.

We already have the ability to auto-nuke member accounts when message reports hit a certain threshold. Unfortunately there were too many accounts getting nuked because of trigger fingers so we've backed away from allowing auto-nuking.
It makes it more work for sure, but it protects members from unintended consequences.
