New problem with our spammers: Now they reject valid questions, so they are no longer visible in the list, and then mark themselves as the person who has solved the question.
Fun fact: Even after I have added myself as an answer contact, I cannot change the status back to 'Answered'.
Examples:
https://answers.launchpad.net/inkscape/+question/361844
https://answers.launchpad.net/inkscape/+question/361147
Would it be possible to allow these things only to a certain set of people, and to only allow 'anyone' to ask and answer questions? It's annoying enough that way. |
