Resolved Question

Has anyone else wondered why a perfectly good answer gets deleted?

From time to time I post a serious answer to a question here, then come back and find a blank where it used to be in my activity. It doesn't really worry me, because some of my answers may not be what the Asker wanted to hear. But they are my considered opinion and I did go to the trouble to post and maybe put a little of myself out there. Are we really so contrary as people that we will go public with a problem, but not think so little of the advice we asked for that we have to wipe it out?

you answered your own question. your answer wasn't what the asker wanted to hear. some people on this site just get there panties in a wad over silly things. some of the users who deleted your answers probably blocked you too.

well if you are being insulting and upset people then um. yea.. that is why that option is there. ;D

I have only done it once.. that person upset me.. and the answer had absolutely nothing to do with the question.. .. it was just to insult me.. I don't even remember that damn question was lol..

sometimes people delete their own answers due to typos... then there are people like me who don't care and leave typo riddled messages all over the net :)
