That makes you guys untouchable, and that's not healthy.
Let's say, hypothetically, of course, that one of you has a habit of posting a comment as an answer, rather than as a comment. I would not there to be a situation where no one but a couple of members can remove the non-answer.
If, however, you'd like to argue that there should not be a delete option at all, and that instead we should focus on the reporting system, then that's definitely something I'll discuss.

Requiring a deleter to provide a reason for the deletion doesn't make the 'victim' untouchable, it just dissuades random driveby troll-deletes (and makes them easier to identify and undo.

The loans ones are the same style as the previously canned spam. only difference is there are no links. I did notice one of them was created today (never noticed the other ones), so although the links no longer are added, the spammers are still creating accounts.

I'm rather suspicious that Chris has broken the sign-up screen. I've gone through the first five pages and there wasn't a single link á la Pink List. Is this luck or has the spiced pork/ham mix been [temporarily] stopped?

The menuitems to go to particular tab groups of questions were very handy. At the moment you've either removed them or there is a bug which is eating them. Please bring them back!

Hi,
i answred some of questions posted other members in code project. my answer was best of my knowledge . but my answer is down voted.i felt like insulting me

0. Double posting won't help. Delete the other thread rather than getting yourself hit.
1. That is what is called life. It's not that you didn't try your best it's that your answer wasn't complete or correct. I looked at one and it was poorly phrased and added nothing to the previous answers.
2. This is a community. In Q&A the aim is to provide an answer, not for each member to answer the question. If there is an existing answer, don't answer unless you are offering an alternative.

Maybe this also has to do with your, putting it mildly now, interesting behaviour. First of all you seem to be quite resistant to advice regarding textspeak in your questions and answers. Then I've observed that you seem to change your screen name around quite a bit, going so far as to post comments to your solutions under a changed screen name. I don't quite have a grasp on what you're trying to achieve by this, but it definitely is annoying and has a troll feel to it.
If you have a plausible explanation for us I'm sure we'd follow your elaborations quite intently.

Well just read aloud this message you posted. You'll most likely find that no one else is insulting you any more than you yourself are.

It's not an insult as much as it is a critique of your answer.

As is mentioned in the other people's comments.
The answers that were downvoted had many issues including your issues with writing full words an using many repeating characters. As well, some are blatant copies of other peoples answers. The FAQ has the answers: Code Project Questions and Answers FAQ[^]
I almost forgot. Double-posting is not acceptable here.

I answered this question[^] an hour or so ago, and the OP commented on my answer almost immediately (or so it seems). I did not receive the email I was expecting "A comment was posted to your answer" or whatever it's exact title is. Lucky that I stumbled across it. Black hole mid-Pacific?

I cannot see why that should be downvoted.
It was only a notification that something may be amiss in the notification area.
I have rectified.

Most inexplicable downvotes are by low rep losers/sock puppet accounts.
Did you ever see history portrayed as an old man with a wise brow and pulseless heart, waging all things in the balance of reason?
Is not rather the genius of history like an eternal, imploring maiden, full of fire, with a burning heart and flaming soul, humanly warm and humanly beautiful?

If it was mail load it should have come through by now. The other option are members who find it easier to hit "report as spam" instead of "click to unsubscribe" meaning the email may have been blocked by an over-zealous and over-trusting spam blocker.

Yeah. That's why I reported. CP is on my whitelist and every other time (before and since) I've had more-or-less timely emails. Checked the spam buckets and there's nothing CP there.
Curiouser and curiouser.

When an article is submitted and then deleted a new article cannot be placed in the same category with the same name; the system reports that the article already exists. I had this problem with my last article when the initial submission was messed up and I deleted it thinking it would be easier than re-doing the entire article. Further, there is no way to reverse the deletion so that the article could be edited instead.
Could the article control system provide the ability to truly purge an article so that it can be replaced and also add an undo delete?

I've just made a change that will give you the ability to permanently remove stuff that's been deleted. Available next release.
