I answered a question (and I presume OP was notified of my answer). Subsequently, the question was updated (adding useful information, prompting me to update my answer). However I only stumbled across that by chance.
Should the hamsters consider notifying answerers/commenters when a question is updated (at least, by the OP)?
A similar question arises about general forum messages that have been replied t.

Hence the screenshot - hopefully the hamsters can work out how she managed to get that through. I thought it was limited to 150 x 150, and less than 100Kb - no way was that one either of those!

Ah yes, of course. I have a feeling I saw another one recently in a similar situation.

Here's one that's still alive (for now) that has the same problem:
Cidade Sorocaba - Professional Profile[^]
As far as I can see, there's no custom CSS involved. It looks like there's a missing max-width rule on the image.

When you go to a user's profile page, there's a little block at the bottom of the page under the label "Add Some Flair to Your Blog".
Inside this block, it shows the number of articles and the average score.
Bug: The number of articles shown represents just articles, but the average shown INCLUDES scores for tips/tricks.
Just a minor nit. 
FWIW, I noticed this months ago, but only now do I have a hole in my schedule large enough to complain about the shoddy attention to detail on CP. (j/k, i'm constantly amazed at the behemoth that is CP and wonder how you guys do it)

When new posts are flagged thus, with the message Quote: This message has been flagged as potential spam and is awaiting moderation
inserted as a plceholder.... all very well and good, but when it's in reply to another message, the OP still gets sent an email containing the potentially harmful or offensive message... perhaps these should be queued until the message has passed moderation, and deleted if not.

I can't find it at the moment, but I raised a similar issue some time ago. It relates to the "five second rule", where you can edit a forum reply "invisibly" if you are quick enough after posting it. The original version is emailed. This allows a form of abuse (which I must admit I have never seen or heard of).

A few minutes I had a weird thing happened where as I was in the process of clicking to cast a vote the mouse cursor shifted and I clicked the wrong number. Subsequently, I found that it is impossible to change that vote. Could that be changed? I would not be opposed to a time limit on making a change. I tried to change it as soon as I realized what I ended up voting for.

Simply refresh the page in your browser and re-vote. That should work.

It,s 11:58 according to my PC clock (which accords with all the other clocks in the house). But according to CodeProject it is nearly 13:00. I think something somewhere may be double counting the extra hour.

Suspiciously, 13749579, 13749580, 13749583, 13749585, and 13749586 are also from Slovenia. 
Maybe it's a group of students on the same course, who all had the same homework question, and all decided to join and post at roughly the same time?

Does anyone know if 'The other site' has this homework problem? Or has codeproject become the default CompSci homework question site?

I don't know, but I suspect TOS would be much more aggressive at closing the type of homework questions we get here.

I'll give you the answer to this question only if you tell me why it is that I get the Soap Box 1.0 Group membership webpage when I try to access an individual Soap Box 1.0 members post from the "messages" list under that member's information webpage.

Well,
I've been here 15 years and I've never posted in the Soap Box or Back Room so I'm the wrong guy to ask.
That being said... I think you can change your 'Account Type' from Individual to Organization or Group. So whoever owns the account your looking at probably owns the 'Soap Box'. I tested this feature as a Beta Tester when the site was under development many years ago.

Too late too late (lyrically).
Behaviors are rampant here at CP. I don't think I ever posted anything anywhere for the first seven years of my fourteen years as a member.
Come to think of it, perhaps the idea of posting something as a question or an answer to a question shouldn't be allowed until you're at least seven years into your stint of observation.
That'd cure a lot a things here especially with the plethora of breadfans about.

Hi,
I apologize; But I am having trouble understanding your odd communication style. You seem to be dropping references to Metallica (breadfan) and Motorhead (Too late too late) songs. Unfortunately I don't really get what your saying.
The only thing I understand is your opinion: "Codeproject members should have an open account for a longer period of time before being allowed to post questions or answers."
I'm lost on the music references... sorry.
Best Wishes,
-David Delaune
