                                      Some people can see it. Special people. I like your. I wish I didn't have to see that mess of Deleted images.

                                        I wish: 1. there were a way not to see them (a mode switch at my disposal, turning my account to non-special so I can see it like the majority will see it) 2. the behavior were documented. :)

                                          This is one example. I don't see why I can't delete that answer. There are other answers on that page that were edited by other members to remove the spam content, presumably because they too could not delete the answers.
