I just wana know... Why can you just simply answer a question rather then waste your precous time deleting them? Deleting them doesn't make them go away cuz most of us learned to save everything and will repost.

I assume you mean bumps.
Every post on here is an explicit "Please answer this question." A repost of "Please answer the questions I already posted at these links" is redundant and clutters up the board. Every question here is important to the person who asked the question at the least, and probably many more. The bump posts make it harder to answer everyones questions - not easier, and there is no reason to do it.
Other steps that are being taken are moving threads to more appropriate boards - for example some posts contain no question but instead an idea for a future feature. I am moving those to the Feature Suggestion forum as I see them. There were some threads that were trying to be helpful in telling other residents to read the stickies or search the forums - which isn't needed; if they aren't reading the stickies they aren't gonna read a random post. Still others are cases where many threads are about the same exact thing, with the same answer, I have been merging these as I come across them. At the same time I am answering the ones I can.
We know we are behind in answering the questions but hope to get caught up soon. I am not going to apologize for trying to help keep the board clean so that this is possible.
