How do I know how long I am banned for suggesting edits?
And what about the reviewers who approved that bad edit?

How can Community User review a edit and approve
When a reviewer (2k+) improves a suggested edit then it is marked as reviewed and approved by community. "This is by design.

Special requirements before voting a question into negative territory
@paul ... You have to remember the SE network is about building a repository of quality questions and answers. That repository is for future users as well as the askers. Askers do not always get immediate answers to their questions.

@Paul I'm not telling you to go away. It is some friendly advice that really urgent questions are in some ways not so suitable for SE. It could be that an "urgent" question gets answered straight away. On the other hand some questions get answered months after they were asked ... I'm just trying to make you aware of another option to think about. cont...

@Paul You should incorporate that last comment into your question then clarify exactly what your feature request is. In order to get it taken seriously you should also be very clear on what is to be gained by the new feature (and also what any downsides would be). Think of it as a project proposal to management ;)

@paul This is a community of volunteers and in addition not every question is answerable. You cannot expect people to even look at your question immediately just because it is urgent for you. If your need is that urgent you should be considering other avenues to getting your question answered (perhaps by paying a consultant who is an expert in Windows networking).

Forcing an edit or a comment before downvoting would kill the core principle that voting is anonymous. Note that this change has been requested many many times on meta.se and rejected. See What is the logic of downvoting a question without a comment? for just one of many examples.

Please read and take note of What should I do if no one answers my question? instead of asking the same question again. If you have new information you should edit it into the original question instead of asking a new one.

@Admin - A few concerns
Use of blockquotes is explicitly mentioned in superuser.com/help/referencing along with an example. Exactly the way you used them in your answer ;)

@Admin - A few concerns
I also posted comments and I'm not a mod either. You were asked to read How to reference material written by others. This link tells you to use blockquote so we can easily distinguish what are your words from the content you are quoting from other sources. Please follow that advice (which I notice you didn't follow in your latest answer How to prevent McAfee LiveSafe from installing uTorrent on my system?)

SharePoint questions
@fixer1234 That's what I was suggesting. I was hoping a sharepoint expert would wander by to comment ;)

SharePoint questions
@fixer1234 Agreed, but on Super User there are are < 300 questions tagged with some variant of Sharepoint compared with 60,000 on the sharepoint stack. So presumably many more eyeballs over there.
