Edit - Meta Stack Exchange

You are not logged in. Your edit will be placed in a queue until it is peer reviewed.

We welcome edits that make the post easier to understand and more valuable for readers. Because community members review edits, please try to make the post substantially better than how you found it, for example, by fixing grammar or adding additional resources and hyperlinks.

There is one long standing member of the community team I truely respect, they have locked one of my answer and deleted comments I think they should not have, but have shown a understanding of my views. The other members of the community team have all seem to have decided that one small group of people can forced another group of people to say things they believe to be incorrect.

This is a good answer overall, but remember, if you aren't paying for the product, you aren't a customer, you are the product. SE doesn't give 2 *&!s about you, the user, since their customers are advertisers and Twitter people (the former pay them money, the latter shower them with heart affirming virtuous praise that can't be bought with mere money). The fact that they stole your hard earned work (or to be more nuanced, fraudulently duped you into submitting it WITHOUT clearly stating that you can't erase it AND that its benefits will be abused) doesn't bother them.
