    At regular basis someone from code project is changing my settings - for example time zone is always set to Kiev, Ukraine and I am located in Sofia, Bulgaria. When this happens more than 3-4 times it is not fun anymore. After every one of those changes I am banned of commenting articles. I guess some of the support employees, usually volunteers, is doing that.

      Firstly, this is the wrong place to post this: this a place where idiots that try to spam the site, or who start being rude to other members can be reported, and their accounts closed if teh community deems it necessary. You already know the right place: Bugs and Suggestions - And again someone changed my timezone and messed up my settings[^] so posting the same thing ion other places isn't helpful at all ... Secondly, it's not a support employee: they have no access to your computer and the cookies stored there so even if they wanted to (which I'm sure they don't) they couldn't mess with them. Making random accusations like that isn't polite; it border on the edge of rudeness and abusive behaviour! It's a bug, and one which crops up from time to time and which the developers are trying pretty hard to find and fix - but since it's intermittent, and doesn't happen to everybody it's proving very, very elusive. The best thing you could do to help is try to remember if they get scrambled after you perform some specific sequence of events or timings, and tell the staff via the Sugs'n'Bugs forum so that might help them track it down instead of assuming malicious activity!
