What's the link you posted?

Right, I forgot to mention the most interesting part.
Normally I have the spammer's profile page open in a window and I copy the URL from there (the unique URL with the ID), but somehow I had closed it this time. Instead I pulled up my Reputation History, found where I had reported the account and copied the URL from the entry in the list (the spam account is gone now, so I cannot repeat that), which gave me this:
http://www.codeproject.com/Members/PanditJi[^]
The spammer's account was named "Pandit Ji" and the other account is named "panditji".

I have stopped receiving The Insider newsletter for no clear reason. When I look at my settings, The Insider is checked, along with agreeing to terms of service. I use a standard Gmail account and have verified that there are no emails in my spam folder. I haven't changed any filters or labels recently either. When I search for "Daily News", as is typically in the subject, I can see them for every weekday up until 11/27/2014. I thought maybe it was related to the timing of various holidays, but they haven't shown up since then.
Any suggestions? Thanks!

I made a change to your Newsletter settings that may fix the issue. Could you please let me know if you start getting the Daily.

Aha! I think I found the issue. I thought I was using my Gmail account directly with Code Project, but I had an older POP3 account in my settings that Gmail checks for me.
I've been testing out Google Inbox instead of using Gmail and Inbox doesn't give you the nice error message that Gmail gives, stating that there was an error connecting to the POP3 account. The fact that I didn't receive email notice of your reply was the clue that it might be an email setting instead of a newsletter setting.
Thanks for your help!

Have a look at this message: http://www.codeproject.com/Messages/4975297/Re-Im-looking-for-instructions-to-convert-a-demo-p.aspx[^]
There is a dropbox screenshot here: https://www.dropbox.com/s/s6z6aunwnstkhql/Screenshot%202015-01-07%2016.25.30.png?dl=0[^]
If you look at the MSDN UserControl class link, it breaks after "UserC" and puts "ontrol[^]" on a separate line. I've not seen that before, and there is no space in original text:
I'm not planning on even looking at 1000 lines of your code - I don't have the time - but I'd start by looking at creating a <a href="http://msdn.microsoft.com/en-us/library/aa302342.aspx">UserControl</a>[<a href="http://msdn.microsoft.com/en-us/library/aa302342.aspx" target="_blank" title="New Window">^</a>] rather than a generic class - they display directly.
I tried it on various screen widths, but it's only on Chrome (Version 41.0.2268.0 canary [64-bit] and Version 39.0.2171.95 m [32-Bit]) - it doesn't do it on Firefox (34.0.5) where the line breaks correctly before the "U" of "UserControl".
The only difference between the Chrome versions is that the 32Bit version breaks a character later...just to be annoying, probably! 
Bad command or file name. Bad, bad command! Sit! Stay! Staaaay...

Cannot repro on Firefox 34.0.5, but I can on Chrome 39.0.2171.95 m.

Talk to Google about their thoughts on the English language. 
I've tried playing with CSS (very, very briefly) but was unable to get it to behave as one would expect.

I assumed you did something different for Chrome than FF...
Odd though, I've never seen that before.

Most of the black magic questions are clear enough from the subject itself in the Quick Answers List, but still to report them I need to open them, scroll to the bottom of question and then click report.
Considering the amount of black magic kind of questions we seem, won't it be more usefull to add a Report button on the question list itself?

Yes, It would be good idea. In addition to that, soon spam filters are going to work in QA also. So within few hours after question is posted, filters will be able to send them to moderation process.
Currently, these filters are working under other forums pretty well.

The problem is it will become way too easy to mark something as SPAM. And as far as I know, there is no Undo if you were to accidentally click it.
There are only 10 types of people in the world, those who understand binary and those who don't.

Exactly.

Whenever i logged in to the portal I have seen the blank space above the poll,
I think it gets filled only when we polling article of the Month,
My suggestion over here is can we fill that space using any valuable information.
Thanks

May it be that it landed into the moderation queue and afterwards the filters allowed it to be posted?

No, it should be purely technical problem with page rendering, one of those I reported before.
For example, answered or reported question is not marked as such in a question list after page refresh, and some other things are not showing. Once I found that removing all cookies and then logging in again fix some page rendering.
