Everyone doesn't write article just to win MVP status. And further, its not necessary that you win MVP status only if you write Articles. Code project is meant for a single thing-HELP,thats it. Help everyone and you will definitely be recognized.

There are monthly competitions for best article awards which recognise quality. They should be more than adequate for people who only wish to write articles.

We've no plans to cut the term of the MVP award to 6 months. It's an annual thing.

MVP does not only depends on the article writing.
Answers in forums and QA and other reputation events give points as well.
If something, then it should be a different cathegory, i.e. MRAW (Most recognized article writer) or something similar.
Although I don't thing such new changes are actually necessary

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?

Either i'm very stupid, or the workspaces login is acting up.
Is there anything i've forgotten? I'm using my registered email-address as username and my account password... but it's not working at all.
EDIT: url and all should be correct!

What error are you seeing?

I've checked the logs, indeed I saw multiple attempts to login into your account, in each of them our user management module said: 'wrong credentials', most likely meaning that the password was not matching the email.
Email was correct and existing in our systems, so it must have been the password.
|

Yes, it was the password. I just reset the password and changed it, now it's working as expected. Thanks

While I'm busy reporting narcicistic bugs, here is another:
In the Who is Who, I've been on page 5[^] for a while...
And according to my rep, I SHOULD be between Shog9 and Al-Farooque Shubho (and that's where I was the last time I looked).
But now I seem to have disappeared?!?!?!? 
Also, on the same page, between everything else, you can find Member 10470915 with a rep of 0 points...

By article count (the default sort) you're on Page 27.

True, but I'm 99% sure I had the "Reputation" sort on. When I look now (without changing anything - including the sorting), everything looks normal again... Guess it was a 24 hour bug! 
(but Member 10470915 with 0 rep point still show up amongst the rest of us on page 5 - with Reputation sorting on, so that bug remains)

I've noticed this before, but I must admit that I haven't taken time to report it before, because it seems like a reasonably unimportant issue.
I posted a joke in the Soapbox. I can see that somebody has upvoted it. Image 1[^].
But when I check my rep history, I can't see the upvote (and it doesn't look like it's included in the total rep point sum either). You can see the posting of the joke, but nothing after that indicating an upvote... Image 2[^].
I don't think it's a caching / replication? issue, because that normally sorts itself out in a matter of minutes, but this has persisted for almost an hour.
Don't misunderstand me: It's not that I'm worried about my rep points, just thought that I would report what I believe is a bug.

It couldn't be that you have simply been too funny already today so have stopped receiving points for upvotes?
Or perhaps the sort of person who would want to upvote such an old joke is simple enough to upvote everything so their giving powers have been curtailed for the day?
ps, the parrot joke very funny, I upvoted that one.
Some men are born mediocre, some men achieve mediocrity, and some men have mediocrity thrust upon them.

If I haven't misread the table[^], there's a 25 events per day allowance for upvotes, and I haven't been THAT funny (neither today nor any other day)... 
BTW: Thanks for the vote...

The best "Thanks" is when you upvote someones message

I think you need to learn some social skills here:
The best "Thanks" is shouting "Drinks are on me!"

Oh my Gosh!  Whenever i want to forget about 'social' word it comes to me with double power
See my profile on LinkedIn (via CodeProject profile) to find out why...

Looks like it could have been a database issue. We're feverishly (in my case, literally) working on improving our bug reporting while also dramatically lowering our SQL utilisation in order to fix a few annoying DB issues that are cropping up.

...isn't it about time that bug was fixed?

Which one? there are a couple at the moment that I can think of.
There's the "There is a more recent version..." bug.
There's the "This article was deleted last August" bug.
There arlso appear to be articles which are approved waiting to be moderated...but that may be a synchronisation problem rather than a bug.
There's articles which are "Composing" as well.
I think when they tried to increase the number from 5 someone got a little over enthusiastic...

I thought it was all the same bug, but if it isn't then I'm talking about all of them...
