I know it seems wrong, but these days, images like that are considered G-rated.
The difficult we do right away...
...the impossible takes slightly longer.

Most places it's not a problem - but some (particularly Islamic) places frown quite strongly on them - IIRC Malaysia for example really doesn't permit underwear or lingerie ads at all.

I work for the textile processing industry (for big well-known brands) and I really don't see anything inappropriate there, it's just daily business...
.. unless it is desired that wearing a veil is desired. 
Btw. Same advertisements are common also for men underwear.

I have a whole bunch of entries with this text in the list of reputation events. They all refer to non existing messages. Has my account been hacked? Any clue?
Sorry if this is not the right place to ask this question.

You are not the only one... Only four for me, but it is weird. And they are reducing points for those undone entries that I didn't make.

Six and a bit pages of entries for me. Maybe the AI server had a meltdown.

Only one for me.
It looks like the top item of the thread disapeared:

Random thoughts:
Greg Utas wrote: I would call it abusive if done by OP, who has apparently deleted a lot of posts.
Maybe they get deleted automatically if the OP erases his/her profile.
Greg Utas wrote: the cause was that a question to which you provided an answer was deleted, probably by OP, which "undid" your answer.
Maybe deleting a post should just replace its content with some boilerplate message while leaving the answers in place. I can imagine cases where an answer is more valuable than the question itself. Also I don't see why removing the answer would affect the reputation counts: the answer was there (good or bad) so reputation stays the same.
Obviously this has to turn into actual code which is not as simple as blabbering here

The questions (or some of them) were posted by Member 14968771[^], whose account was closed at the weekend. See I believe it really is time ...[^]. But I am quite certain that all the questions were still there after the closure, so I think CodeProject may have a new system that does this. Maybe @sean-ewington knows the answer.

Sean Ewington does know the answer. I pushed a button that is rarely ever used to remove this user's messages. I probably shouldn't have done that.
Thanks,

No problem Sean, it just caused us a bit of confusion.

Was it labelled in black on a black background, and when you press it a little black light lights up black to let you know you've done it?

No, it was the big red button labeled with "Do NOT touch"

But for a node the 'delete' is disabled as soon it contains at least one reply

But not the edit button. And the OP has been known to completely erase the content of a message, which seems like an abuse too. It would be interesting to know how often old forum threads get accessed, presumably by others dealing with similar issues. Maybe its often enough that a way to recover or review old versions of a post might be useful. I suspect that it happens infrequently, and the effort to do provide that feature is not worth the payoff.

I was thinking in a more general case. For example I make a post asking a question, and get some replies to it. At this point, short of the Magic Button that Sean used, I can't delete my original post (or at least I don't think I can). However I can edit the content to something like "Sorry, stupid question", thus removing any direct evidence of my foolishness 
I'm not even sure that discussion posts get tagged with v1 v2 etc like QA does. I don't recall if you get a chance to say what was changed, or why.
So, given that the moderators have not done anything to the post, but the text has been altered, is there any way to see what changed? Some sort of revision log, so that others could look and see what changed. Maybe that's already there and available? If not, would that be a useful change? Or would the effort required be greater than the 1 time a year it might be used?

AFAIK no

In the QA yes, but in the message boards I think not. The QA came way later than the boards. I suppose it would be a not so pleasant job to add them

The user can do a strike and correct, or another user can quote the text and then there is proof in the other message (have been done several times, specially in the Soapbox)

If the update is later than a few minutes after the original then a short message appears at the bottom:
modified 1 sec ago.
However if it is important to preserve the original I will follow it with:
[edit]
new information here
[/edit]
And maybe use the strike tags around any original text that is no longer valid.

Well, to most of us theye are quite easy to find at the top of the Discussions tab in the menus. However far too many users of the package seem incapable of navigating the site. Would it be possible to add a prominent item on the menu bar for just this system?

There is a big button on the "AI home page": 
But I guess they can't see it there either ... 
Perhaps add it to the link image?
