Issue with "Name or Alias" here at Code Project
-
I had my "Name or Alias" field set to be exactly as follows: Dean "Karnatos" Michaud It would not let me post a message here on the boards, claiming I was trying to post as 'Dean' with an email of 'karnatos@hotmail.com', and that there was already another user named 'Dean "Karnatos" Michaud' using that email address. I replaced the double-quotes with single quotes, and the problem went away - it was quite annoying though, because I'd have to try to post to ask about the problem, but I could post because that was the problem... uhh, if you know what I mean. Anyways, I'm still new here, not quite sure who to mention this to, if it is a known problem (maybe a notice on the setting page or somewhere more prominent would let people know in the short term?). Just wanted to give a heads up on that! : Dean "Karnatos" 'Karnatos' Michaud

Welcome to CP, Dean. Some people foolishly think this is just a place to find source code and programming info, but the more enlightened amongst us regard it as a way of life. There's just a couple of house rules you need to know, and you'll be fune: Please don't feed John's pet goat, he'll get jealous. Refer to Rant n Rave if you feel the need to vent your spleen, just watch out because Dave Wulff has left some of his old pr0n lying around in there. The Visual C++ forum is the place to ask programming questions, but be forewarned that any mention of C functions, CFile or CArray will result in me berating you beyond all hope of reason to use the STL/IOStreams. Many minorities are represented here, including trans-sexuals ( although the person in question never revealed their identity ), people from the third world ( Nish ), and even VB programmers ( Paul Watson ). So welcome, join the fun, and if you are ever so foolish as to leave, please leave the door open on the way out.... :-) Christian The tragedy of cyberspace - that so much can travel so far, and yet mean so little. "But there isn't a whole lot out there that pisses me off more than someone leaving my code looking like they leaned on the keyboard and prayed that it would compile. - Jamie Hale, 17/4/2002

There's been an annoying problem with the board for a few weeks now that I've been trying to pin down. If you've found a problem and can repeat it just email me at webmaster@codeproject.com. I'll look into this little gremlin. cheers, Chris Maunder

Daniel Ferguson wrote: Did we not figure out who it was? I don't think you did, which is probably best. Wait and see...when the time comes for me to formally change my name (which is unlikely to happen until sometime next year) I'll let the CP community know in advance that it's about to happen. :) Daniel Ferguson wrote: Did'nt Anna say that s/he used to post in the Lounge, but would not anymore under the old name. Not quite what I said, but not too far off either. What I actually said was that I wouldn't post under this name unless there was a good reason for doing so. At the moment I still post under my old name, and will continue to do so until I formally change it. Anna :rose:
