OTOH, there are like a dozen owner requests deletion flags in the SO queue right now
That... Is ever-green
 
user315433
And supposedly automatic.

post deletion
As I said, folks care more about getting the evidence of their past crap off the Internet than they do about q-bans or attribution.
 
user315433
Ah, that. Anyway, looks like Sarah (800) is the most common female name on SO, followed by Sara (791).
 
user315433
Note: this is based on full name matches, no splitting into first and last.

Most folks from overseas don't actually know they should attribute
Yes, I'm also talking about people from my region

@Gerry Sadly, the most commonly used name by women on Stack Overflow is "user...".
(Probably.)

@Shog your folkness leaked into my messages. Stop polluting my "people" with "folks"
@JonEricson Most probably

@M.A.R. "people" is what easterners say when they're trying to be dismissive.

@ShadowWizard Would you prefer if it were "useress"?
 
Shadow Wizard
Shadow Wizard
@M.A.R. yup. SE should scan the user and according to this use proper default name.
 
M.A.R.
M.A.R.
@Shog9 I can say "peeps" whenever I need to sound like CMs
Or, hmm, "blokes"?

I'm sure Obama never used "folks".
Probably Trump too.

You did dip them in batter first, right?

the batter dipped ones were successful, but not as humorous in conversation
ps what i learned from deep-fry-all-the-candy day: nutter butters, hands down for the win.
