... and I think the same thing should apply to the "five second rule" or whatever it is that allows you to edit a forum post briefly after posting (without it being flagged as an edit). The original is the one emailed. So I could say something very rude to you in this message then edit it out before anyone else sees it. I haven't seen any evidence of this happening, but one day "smart" and "nasty" will be found in bed together.

The subject explains it. Faced a hard attack of your spam filter in The Lounge, finally deleted all my really non abuse Messages there.

I don't understand. You deleted message that weren't spam?
With respect to allowing authors to delete other's messages on their article forums: sorry, no. This opens the door to members deleting non-spam posts if the spam filter is too twitchy.

I think he means allow the OP to delete/modify their own message that was flagged as potential spam.

Ok, then do Report me as a Spammer, it is ok, if I don't fit this communitity.
But sorry, I did not even posted the smallest spammy things today (I know there was a time where I break the rule before some years), but (I think of my low rep) it was catched as spam.... or maybe it was only mentioned OS in a post?
BTW: tuppence.. it Needs Leo to understand it

I haven't reported you as a spammer - I don't think I have in any of your incarnations - so if you got a kick in the "recent activity" list it wasn't me.
Mind you, I can't see any reason why the filter picked you up on those messages, that's why I let them through when I saw them...

@Chris-Maunder - can you reset his spammer count? I'll vouch for him as "One of the Good Guys" if necessary.

Gotcha.
In this case, again, no.
Firstly: the spam filter was misfiring but I've now fixed that so you should not be getting the false reports you saw yesterday. Basically: it should not be an issue that needs fixing because if you are caught as a spammer (rare) then it's usually made public quickly.
Secondly, as Grid pointed out, it provides a great way for spammers to quickly test their messages and get them past our spam filter. That's a Bad Idea.

I just posted a reply to a question in the C# forum. Right after I posted, I realized I'd made a typo (misspelled "throwing"), and edited my answer.
My edited answer was flagged as potential spam and was put in the moderation queue. This is the first time in 17 years a CP message I've written has been flagged as spam.

What's the problem? Front gate not high enough for you to bother to chuck the package over? Dressed in brown I see.
I suppose that I should really buck-up and walk up to the grate and have THIS conversation with you:
"Ok, this stream of words issuing from your mouth should not be construed as information about who you are, what you're doing standing on the sidewalk caterwailing before my apartment trying to gain admission into the courtyard, and why I'm not walking up to you but ignoring you
"Oh, i see psychology! Yeah, yeah ignore me until I release some pattern of twitches you wish to shape then hop on it with something like "I intend to murder you; as you" can see, noone else is home ..."
