I am still clueless on what and how to use my coupon. I am able to login into https://workspaces.codeproject.com[^] but don't see anything in Beta Tester forum ("-- The discussion board is restricted and cannot be viewed by the general public --")
I cleared my cache and did Cntrl+F5 too. I am on FF27.

I got an email about some coupon whatchama , and the email contained a link to the Beta Tester's Forum, along with instructions to read more about the coupons there. When I go to that forum, I get:
Quote: -- The discussion board is restricted and cannot be viewed by the general public --
Then why was I given a link to it?

I guess the Beta Tester Forum needs more testing.

Did you redeem the coupon sent?
See the message above.

Nope. I had assumed I'd be able to read about what the coupon actually was before I redeemed the coupon.

I am pretty sure CP guys have a real good reason for this. Why don't you guys use server push? Why we need to refresh all the time to refresh our notifications?

Hours in the day. We're focusing on other stuff (see the newsletter), but it's definitely on our TODO.

Don't report it here - it's not a bug with the site - report it here instead: http://www.codeproject.com/Forums/1652005/Spam-and-Abuse-Watch.aspx[^]
In this case, it has been reported, and the member is dead.

My 2 cents.
Can we have some kind of email verification when a new account is created before someone can access anything? Also, can we have say, captcha verification for say, first 5 or 10 posts a new user makes?
This could well be annoying but I think can help reducing spam attacks.

Email verification won't do much, if anything: you probably have access to as many different email addresses as I do - unlimited. All it does is make them "block book" new members so they can use them one after another - it won't slow them down much, if at all.
Captcha won't help either as far as I can see - it's human beings doing the posting, judging by the time between posts, so a captcha is only going to add a couple of seconds.

Virtual ban. Yeah, that sounds effective.

That would be fun. You do realize I could set VPN in a way to appear as if I am in Wales. I would change my user name to something related to sheep. Just to appear authentic.

Sorry, but as others have stated, this won't do anything but really annoy people.
I've added a rough filter for this weekend and am having a more complete solution setup next week.

Brilliant. Thanks. You are not using OGs solution, are you?

Hi Team,
There are two Krunal Rohit account showing on the Widget "Top Experts in 24 Hours".
One member does not exist and other goes to Krunal's account.
Please fix this, I guess this issues has been raised many times before.
Thanks,
