Sometimes, when something is a duplicate, it may just have been merged with the earlier version and "disappears" as it's combined. I've noticed that before.
I think some of this is also glitches .. just like comments and answers sometimes disappear.

I got a mole removed yesterday. What should I expect when I take the band-aid off?
That depends on how large it was and how deep they had to "cut" into.
If it was cauterized .. it will just have a "scab" on it. I'm sure they gave you something to put on the wound until it's more healed.
I wouldn't really go by others' experiences so much ... because every "mole" could be a little different .. and people heal differently.
Just make sure you follow the aftercare...

Why does the AB staff dissolve a current question into a previous one of a similar nature? The current question will have a different audience.
AB wants to amass a database of unique questions. That's what sets it apart from other Q&A sites.

All questions can be accessed at any time. If one is combined with another, it can still receive new answers indefinitely.

Answer to:
I have just been informed that another AB member has complained to AB staff that I threatened to kill him. It's a lie. What would you do?
Rosie, that "threat" will just discredit the person who claimed it happened. You've been on here long enough that no one would ever believe it.
I would just ignore it.
Answer to:
How many times can one get PB'd before he/she is banished forever? Some go in/out,in/out over and over. Does it ever end? When?
I think they decide that on a case by case basis Rosie. It all depends on what they did .. not sure how consistent it is though.
Some just open new accounts anyway .. so there's no way, that I know of, that someone could never come back.

If I see they're blowing it off or repeatedly yelling at them and not following through with handling it ... it is very annoying and I try to get away from them. You can't really tell another person how to parent their kids.

How does violence against others affect you?
It's always upsetting to see people using violence to "solve" anything.
There are always so many other more constructive ways to solve problems and conflict.
Violence just breeds more violence and does nothing more than complicates and compounds problems.
Saddest part is that violent people have often been the victims of violence themselves. It's a vicious circle.

When making hardboiled eggs, Does size matter for easy peeling? I tried Jumbo eggs and they seemed to peel easier. everything the same
The age of the eggs and the cooking method are what makes them easier or harder to peel.
"Older" eggs peel easier .. no matter what size.
And running cold water over them after cooking and allowing them to sit a couple minutes in it will make them easier to peel.

Which one would be a healthier choice. Using butter on a sandwich or using mayonnaise?
How about using mustard instead .. that would be better than either. But minimally, you could use low-fat or fat-free mayo or other spreads.
You have to learn to use healthy alternatives to the usual fatty foods. It might take some getting used to .. but it can be done and you'll wonder why you took so long to do it.

The sad part is that some people decide to have kids because it's the thing to do or they're pressured by others. That's a shame since they often end up resenting their kids ... who are the innocents.
I would much prefer that people who don't want to have kids .. don't have them! Much better for everyone!

I'm just guessing, but I think people in the US generally smoke less than folks from other countries. The majority of AB'ers are from the US.
I'm not sure about other countries, but we've been educated about the health problems associated with smoking and secondhand smoke for decades -- starting when we're in school.
More and more public places don't allow smoking.
Even some insurance...

How long or how many generations does it take for immigrants to lose their old culture and adopt the host country's culture?
I suppose that would depend on the individuals.
But for me personally, I think if I'm moving to another country, I would want to find a happy medium between adapting to the local customs, language and culture and retaining my "roots".
I think remembering and honoring where you came from is important. That will always be a huge part of who you are and shouldn't be forgotten.

That depends on the situation and if you've apologized for it before.

I never knew of anyone who was "disciplined" as you describe. Spankings were pretty normal. Of course, just like now, there were parents who abused their kids and took punishments to the extreme.
I'm not a big fan of spanking .. although we did "swat" our son...

Maybe if you have an alcohol related accident or a DUI, they might deny coverage .. I don't know. I can't imagine they would generally deny coverage...

In some jobs, for example, employers are looking for someone who projects a certain image and looks is a big part of it.
