FOLKS, FOLKS, FOLKS!!! First of all, I thank everyone sincerely for voicing their views. I realize that most of you disagree with me-that perhaps indicates my views can spark a lot of animosity. For example, people think just because I don't post my name, I must be a hacker living somewhere in the dark corner of a room, eating pizza and posting these messages. No folks, no. I humbly request ALL of you to respect the fact that I don't want to post my name. After all, it's the point I make that matters, not who I am. If I have contributed to making this a better site by way of raising a few issues, and have made people atleast think about these issues for a brief period of time, then that's what matters-NOT my name. A great many folks have done things everyone knows about, but no one knows who did it. Okay, on to other things. Let me state this first: I THINK CHRIS IS DOING AN AWESOME AND WONDERFUL JOB. Thank you Chris! Please everyone, realize I am not saying otherwise. Codeproject is a great site and infact, is one of my favorite sites too. I do respect this site, and I AM CONCERNED ABOUT IT TOO! Surely I am allowed to slot in a wee bit of whining... :) This IS a developer community, right? No community can improve without feedback. I am very happy that a lot of people discussed on this thread...but I think it's time to put an end to it, and move on with other things. Frankly, I didn't expect this much of bashing and gnashing. Thanks to all for the various views. I am ALL FOR IMPROVING CODEPROJECT-I will try my best to make programmers' lives easier, by posting as much as I can too. Chris works his butt off, and yes, I think I have to help him as much as everyone else has to, to make this an outstanding site. Sometimes a little criticism can make everyone open their eyes; I was hoping to do that. Infact, a lot of what people said is right-I haven't asked any questions in interviews, I've been whining, etc...but please realize, I did it out of my desire to see Codeproject ranked not #56 or #xyz in the best dev web sites, but I'd like it to be ranked NUMBER 1. Towards this end, Chris...I will help as much as I can. I hope everyone joins me towards this goal as well. Let me also state that I must've hurt a lot of people's feelings about my post. I hope everyone can overlook that, if I did-I apologize. It's just an opinion for christ's sake....it's not meant to hurt anyone's feelings. Thanks once again, Chris...you've given us an awesome site to whine about :) I think it's time to get into the black

Like I said, flak was expected! But hey, don't take it too seriously-it was something I wanted to see if others shared my views-just check the previous reply. Some agree, some don't! So let me state that again: PLEASE FOLKS, DON'T TAKE IT SERIOUSLY!!! Chris is doing a GREAT job, I'll state that too. Of course, Codeproject is built for the developers, by the developers. So I guess I have a right to voice my opinion! IT IS JUST AN OPINION!!! I am all for improving quality-not content, though improving both would be cool too. You sound rather peeved, so please, let me state, I am not out to peeve people off :) Regarding my identity, I wish to remain anonymous, and I hope that's okay with everyone and also I hope everyone respects my wish to stay that way-it's not illegal; incase you didn't know I have contributed to BOTH CodeProject and CodeGuru as well. So cool down, it's just a LOUNGE discussion, not a war. A still concerned developer :
