Answer Removed

[anotheoldgit]

When answers are removed, could a reason for them being removed be stated?

[Old_Geezer]

It could be: but isn't.

[murraymints]

If your answer is removed you'll know why !

[AB Editor]

No. We don't have time and we don't believe that giving a "tickbox" response (such as selecting a report reason or similar) would truly reflect the kind of choices we make.

All the best,

would it not be possible to remove the answer but leave up the name of the member who posted ?

[murraymints]

Like naughty poster scoreboard ? Lol...

[anotheoldgit]

Yes but the poster doesn't know if the answer was removed because it wasn't offensive in any way but an appropriate answer for that particular thread.

If the latter was the case then the poster could use that very same answer in a more appropriate thread, if you get my meaning?

I think omnicognisce is a lot to ask for from your answerers?

[inksplotter]

Even civil servants reject ideas with words like "We will consider this, but it may not be possible."
If you wish politeness from us you need to meet us halfway...
