I will have to do some experimentation to try and reproduce exactly what I was seeing. | |
| Mar 14, 2012 at 17:27 | comment | added | Arjan | The deleted comment showing again is probably just a matter of looking at the cached page: the comment is in the HTML on page load, and then removed from the view (and marked deleted in the database) when you delete it. If you then come back to the page without actually reloading it, then most (if not all) browsers will show the initial HTML again, not the manipulated HTML. That's the same with votes et cetera. | |

I just tried again and it appears to have worked. Perhaps there is some kind of "grace period" for auto-generated comments. | |

Changed to slightly less powerful language.

| Mar 13, 2012 at 19:05 | comment | added | Pops | Hey, I voted this request up in June of 2010, I'm not the enemy. I just don't like incorrect information. | |
| Mar 13, 2012 at 18:57 | comment | added | Justin ᚅᚔᚈᚄᚒᚔ | @PopularDemand: ...and a little longer than it should, if the vote was cast in error. If close votes do still expire, then maybe the word to use is "silly" rather than "asinine". Regardless, I and at least 320 of my peers would still love to see this feature implemented. | |
| Mar 13, 2012 at 18:49 | comment | added | Pops | This isn't quite true... close votes do still expire except on questions with extremely few views (<100, I believe). It just takes a little longer than it used to. | |
