    I highly doubt any of the spam CP is getting is from hijacked accounts. If so, I would like to see the numbers. Codeproject is not international spy stuff. Let's not get carried away with this. :)

    I very much doubt it is! But that doesn't mean it couldn't be. This is a good target site: high membership, high traffic, easy signup, easy post. If they get the idea that hacking accounts will benefit them, do you doubt they would try? And the weakest link is always the human who decides what the password is.

    Bad command or file name. Bad, bad command! Sit! Stay! Staaaay...

      Yes, actually. Some of us have been with the site for over 5+ years. Some have many published articles, and are regarded to be trustworthy. It's a no brainer, in my book.

      I think perhaps you may have suffered a sense of humour failure. Please switch off and on again!

        One of those days. I really shouldn't post when I am irritated, I know, but sometime I need to vent. :java:

          I am not even talking about high-rep members. Rep has nothing to do with it. I'm talking about trustworthy members.

          You're asking for a hand-picked exemption from any spam filtering, I assume? This isn't actually that hard. We have a "Trusted Author" designation, so adding a "Trusted Poster" would be straightforward.

            That sounds just like me, Trusted Poster. Do I get a badge and a hat?
