It's in the moderation queue - it's been submitted.
And I can't suggest he remove the (spammy) YouTube link without one!

It seems the YouTube link is an additional way of explaining the steps for which the Tip is. Shouldn't that be okay?
Overall, its a quick component written that helps in debugging shared across.

That article is basically an ad for a third party product. If that product had source code posted then that's fine, but it's not, and nor is that product (as far as I can tell) a widely used product that would be considered a "standard" developer component.
Sorry, but no. We're about sharing open source code, not promoting closed source binaries.
cheers

Okay - Seems I missed something. It looked same author across along with code. (And yes, my point was assuming code is there then why not - so we are on same page)
Thanks Chris.

I noted a nice fresh down vote on a Q&A (arrived this morning at 7:48 AM). I bring it up not because of the previous spate of targeted down votes (any Q&A response I made) because this time all the answers have been blessed with a down vote. Same value "-16" - which makes it somewhat likely it's the same culprit.
For those with the special power of inner vision, if it is determined to again be the same user, perhaps they need a good b*tch slapping? We may yell at one another a bit, in the lounge, but by and large, even persistent adversaries don't take their problems out of the thread.
It begs an interesting point: who has nothing better to do with their time than do these drive-by's ? Particularly, it's not a shiny new troll account, but someone who's been around a while. Well - at least they don't live next door . . . I hope

Thank you for the update. I am keeping an eye on the situation.

Page numbers within a single question are not working.
For example: Visual Basic[^]
Over ten pages of "solutions" from the troll mentioned below, but each page shows as "page 1", and the question only claims to have 20 answers.
The "next" link works, but doesn't update the selected page number.

An interesting bug. I'm surprised that no one has reported it before.
It will be fixed on the next deploy.

(luckily) we haven't had such a spam load in a single item for very long or many times...

Based on activity of Member 14953681 i'd suggest to re-open discussion about IP lock or captcha verification for persons who post many comments/answers in a some interval of time.
This member has posted much over 300 answers in 3 threads! There must be some way to lock such of spammers.

|
|
|
|
What about limiting number of comments/answers per day on first week ?

Not sure...
User can be inactive for few weeks or his activity can be "normal" per week, then he start posting spamm/troll/abusive content...
|
|
|
|
|
Yes but like this member, spammers usually do their stuff the very day they register.

Regarding IP addresses: I'm amazed at the number that claim to be "Americans". Can't use some IP verification (like "continent")?
It was only in wine that he laid down no limit for himself, but he did not allow himself to be confused by it.

Type '*' in the search box and press enter. It will return a list with the latest messages. These are usually on a page beyond the first.
|
|
|
|

That is not my point. What I am talking about is whole threads missing from the normal forum display.
Incidentally, at least some of them show up in a search.

I've checked the database and what you see is correct. Strange as it may seem, there don't seem to be that many questions being posted. There are new posts after the one you mentioned, so the site seems to be working correctly.
Maybe they all moved over to Q&A.

Thanks Matthew, that seems to confirm my observations.

Thanks! Put my original message down to a geriatric's brain fart.
I was sure I'd seen more threads in the intervening week, but obviously not.
Cheers,

Member 14950662 - Professional Profile[^]
and
Member 14950661 - Professional Profile[^]
have the same summon nick (User-14917012) and hence the same "members" URL.
Additionally the name shown in the "Who's who" List is not the nickname of the profile list, but the summon name, what usually is not the case.
Same stats, same profile "pic", I clicked in the upper link of the list and I got both links marked as visited (purple)
