I had an email from the OP about this article: http://www.codeproject.com/script/Articles/ArticleVersion.aspx?aid=600751&av=877165&msg=4576801#xx4576801xx[^] (which is rightly closed as it isn't an article):
Hello,
Thanks for your comment.
I am trying to write my first article.
Could you please give any feedback to improve on this article?
That would help.
Thanks
Swagat The problem is that I can't reply directly (since I don't have his email), I can't reply via the article (because it's closed so it doesn't have any messages or a message area) and I can't tag an "off topic" reply onto one of his other posts since all his other input is messages on the closed article...
Any ideas?

Someone posted a large comment on this article and it seems the whole layout of the page has gone for a toss.

Comments section shows the problem in design.

Yes. He opened two tables as HTML and never closed them. I feel like there should be signs like at the pool about "HTML table safety."
Please everyone, if you're going to use tables, be safe. Articles could get hurt.
I've fixed this one.

I'm having trouble with the comment section of the articles. They are fully expanded and it makes it annoying to view. I tried making the layout of the comments from "All Open" to "Normal", but there is no setting for it in My Settings to fix this. It seems there is a setting for each article and let's be honest, it's annoying.

Recently changes an article type from "Article" to "Tip", and also did a tidy up on the formatting etc.
Didn't want it to go live, but wanted to leave it in the Pending state, so edited the status field also.
On clicking the publish, I got a forbidden message. Everything did what it was supposed to do though.
Edit:
It is repeatable, did the same thing on another item, so not just a momentary Gremlin...

I would like my CodeProject account to be deleted and all my profile data erased too. I assume this is the right place to make such a post. By the way, why is there no simple click-confirm-delete button anywhere on this website, maybe use confirmation link via email for deletion like you use for reset/forgot password scenario?

When you sign up there is a link to cancel your account in the email you receive. However, consider your account deactivated and cleaned.

I have posted a solution in this thread: Why this method does not increment?[^]
Early i've decide to delete it, but now i have made some changes and i wish to publish it.
Why the status of my answer is still "Deleted"?
Why i'm not able to post new solution in this thread (i've tried 3 times)?
[EDIT]
SOLVED!
Thank you, Chris Maunder

One important thing I should have mentioned, in my first message, based on my perception of the current state of the C# discussion forum, in comparison with the C# questions in Q&A:
The two types of forums, obviously, have a different structure.
In Q&A, you can ask the OP a question, or comment, via the 'Comment facility, and that attempt to clarify, focus, "frame," the OP's actual problem, and their intent in asking the question, is not an answer. And, if your rep permits, you can edit the OP's question.
That commenting process on Q&A (at best) can become a back-and-forth with the OP that helps result in a "good question," all without burning a tank of rep-solid-fuel to reach orbital velocity.
And, of course, the OP has the "power" to "anoint" a given Q&A answer as "The Answer," which smothers the now sanctified answer in reputation-glory.
In the C# discussion forum, every response at top-level to the OP's question gets #10 points (I'm not sure about responses to responses), and there's no editing for members (that I am aware of).
"So, what is the point, Bill, of your stating the obvious about the difference in discussion forums' and Q&A forums' structure ?"
The "blunt point" I would make is that the difference in structure is by design, and the two types of forums have different intended purposes.
The design is, imho, excellent, and if we allow the "conquest by fiat" of the specific technical discussion forums by narrow-focused "how do I do this" questions, and "quick-fix" answers (posted with the best of intentions), then I believe the "virtue" of the design is lost.
So, I, and, I suspect, others hesitate, on the C# forum, to ask clarifying questions.
The "blunt remedy" I propose, as a possibility, would be to let someone(s) with whatever number of combat-medals move posts from discussion forums to Q&A.

While their spirit can be directed to an eternal object, their bodies, passions, and imagination are in continual change, for to be in time, means to change. Their nearest approach to constancy is undulation: repeated return to a level from which they repeatedly fall back, a series of troughs and peaks.” C.S. Lewis

I can see what you are saying, but (if you don't mind my tuppence worth being thrown in here) I'm not sure it will help much. The reason you get "now do I do this" in forums is quite possibly because it was the first place they found where they could see discussions going on about the area they need help with. If the question gets moved to QA will they ever find it again? Or get frustrated because we "deleted" their question, presumably because we are an elitist bunch who don't want such simple questions intruding? (Not saying anyone is, you understand, just the newbie's view of what happened).
Plus there is the current effect of simple questions in QA to consider: vote 'em all grey and move on...
