Is there any way to view the text answers given in response to the current survey, exactly like we can see the same in case of all previous surveys ?

You can - go to the results page and click on "View optional text answers (n answers)" below the resulta table.
If you get an email telling you that you can catch Swine Flu from tinned pork then just delete it. It's Spam.

Down-voted messages are showing with the same colour title as up-voted messages. They used to show as grey, which made it much easier to differentiate between the good and the bad messages.
If you can't show them with a different colour, it would be better to remove the colour highlighting altogether.

This has been reported before, and it seems to be related to how the new voting system works. Likely a bug.

So I noticed there was a warning message while browsing Insider news telling me I needed to confirm my email to post, so I did, got the email, clicked the link, got a confirmation page and then...the message is still there. Have a similar warning in this forum too. (Already tried the obvious, refresh, clear cache and refresh.)
EDIT: Seems to be gone now...either fixed or I was just impatient (the email came basically instantly, guess I figured my account's email status would update as quickly  )

It might be nice if, on the page of a question asked, a list of the same-user's other recent posted questions (either Quick Answers/Forum) were shown with date/time (sorted from most recent) and title (as links).
( In Quick Answers, perhaps on the right, above/below the Top Experts lists. In Forums, maybe a popup/hover/???. )
If we see a (very) recent question with the same or similar title, we can check if it is really the same question or not.
I (like most of us, I expect) go through the Quick Answers in the presented order (most recent first). We will not necessarily see that the question is a repeat. And in the Forums, it is even harder to detect cross-posting.

How about requiring new users to click on a confirmation link sent to their email address before allowing them to post?
Lots of other boards do it, and it just might make it enough of a hassle that some spammers won't bother.
The difficult we do right away...
...the impossible takes slightly longer.

It won't really be any hassle, as this can be easily automated.
It might thwart the ones though that are to stupid to that. So why not?

We already require confirmation on some forums and they still spam.

The "Which of the following have you used?" poll is set to run until March 25th. I think it will get kind of old after a few more weeks

I marked 3 posts as spam, refreshed the page and noted that they were then then marked as removed (at which point I thought - hey God powers, cool).
I then wandered off to see if there were any other posts worth nuking with my new super powers, when I returned to the Lounge the removed posts were back, slightly advanced time. There were no vote counts.
I then repeated the excercise proving my God powers were in my browser only. I thought you had maybe given select users 1 vote nukability, which may not be a bad idea as some here you can trust not to abuse the ability!

Second sighting. I had also red-flagged the three Lounge spam posts. Came back later to see "Automatically Removed" on all three, returned later again to see they had reappeared  .

Take a look to the lower left corner. There are some infos there, one of them is which server are you connected to "Web0x". There are some problems with the synchronisation of the different servers.
I have already seen, that I answer to a thread, go to other place and come back and there are 5 or 6 threads less (where my answer not exist yet), just several F5 or go to another forum and come back get you to another Web0x and then.... voila, all is there (or not)
You can check it with your reputation as well, depending on which one you connect, your reputation is 40 or 50 points less than it should

I have seen you mention something like that in the past, so I actually did make a mental note, that when I saw the messages reappeared, the page came from Web03.
When I returned later and saw them removed again, I tried to refresh a few times, but could not seem to "land on" Web03 again, so I did not research it any further.

I am currently hopping around between Web04 and Web02. Seems like they like me <3

Sounds like you're hitting a different server with a different set of messages in its cache. An outstanding bug we have is that each server's cache is not synchronised.
