I think computer viruses should count as life. I think it says something about human nature that the only form of life we have created so far is purely destructive. We've created life in our own image.

Could well be an innocent newbie who doesn't grok the rules, so I'm not pinging him for that post. Maybe a gentle enquiring comment to his answer would be in order. Peter Software rusts.

I have seen several answers like that from members who signed up the same day, posted a leadtools favored answer and never did anything else.

Thank you, —SA Sergey A Kryukov Approvals system is being abused Ed Nutting4-Sep-12 2:42 Ed Nutting 4-Sep-12 2:42  Over the past few days a number of articles have been posted (current Bugs/Suggestions posts one of them: Why you should rewrite your code for the new C++ 11 && operator[^]) that have been really poor quality or just not up to scratch. I have just reported the following tip/trick as incomplete as it is missing the required downloads and is just not a good tip/trick really: Simple Flash Uploader[^] How on earth did that slip through the net? There is even a report option in the approvals process for missing downloads/images! It seems that there is suddenly a number of unknown (to me) members that are abusing the approvals process and allowing poor quality articles to be published. I think this should be investigated to find out who or what is causing this reasonably sudden and recent degradation in the approvals system. Thanks, Ed Spammer...
