    hi Chris, This guy (Member No. 1149714) has clearly cheated to gain his MVP, given that he has 2 votes for almost every message he has contributed even those that are just questions. Could you verify this as it makes a mockery of the Code Project MVP status. I think (if he has cheated) then his posts should be deleted and his account banned. I would have emailed you this but stupidly cannot locate your email address :) regards,

        It does look very suspicious indeed, and I'm sure there is someone else more deserving. After all, anyone can create additional CP accounts and then vote for their own posts/articles. Perhaps the MVP award should be more weighted to the quality of articles posted, rather than '5' votes for forum posts.

            My name is missing in the MVP list. I have to mail Chris, but right now I'm busy and will send him an email by evening. PS TO CHRIS: Chris, please add my name to the MVP list. I can ensure you that there will be an article (shit of an article) posted by tomorrow morning and it will have about 40 to 50 votes, all 5!! And there shall be questions and answers (from different ids, of course) and all shall carry a weightage of 5. Thanks for your time. IMO, auto-generation of MVP list is crap of an idea. The list must be hand-picked or atleast moderated after generation since those MVPs deserve it!

                No! Each person can votes for 3 people, and that person must be a member for a least 1 years and have submitted at least 1 article and posted 100 messages or over.

                  Thats what I'm getting at the 'select' statement is clearly flawed.

                                I tried to take attention on this issue in the morning[^]. But in vein. Anyway, it comes up finally. Problem may be with CP award system. As you can see, majority of good replies goes unvoted. And OP does not to vote back. Hey wait ! Was there any survey conducted for nomination to this award ? -- modified at 4:58 Wednesday 3rd January, 2007

                                  I wasn't suggesting moving the thread, merely advising that posts to that forum go directly to Chris or he checks that board often.

                                  Hardly, that term has been used off and on for at least a few years (I've only been a member for a few years). :)

                                    I wasn't suggesting moving the thread, merely advising that posts to that forum go directly to Chris or he checks that board often.

                                    Hardly, that term has been used off and on for at least a few years (I've only been a member for a few years). :)


                                    I'd love to help, but unfortunatley I have prior commitments monitoring the length of my grass. :Andrew Bleakley:
