that's because it does not has anything to do with the code completion, but with the fact that symbols are still there (they are not removed when you remove the method). OCompletion just shows you a bunch of *symbols* you used lately (sorted with some -not much- intelligence), not methods or classes or anything... Understand. So it shows the expected behaviour, even if it not nice one.
Of course that can be fixed (and should be, eventually)... but who can take it? The "in house pharo team" now is really busy stabilizing 2.0 to take another feature action right now. I have no expectations here that this should fixed/enhanced with the upcoming 2.0. In my eyes it was not clear, if it was a bug. Anyway i can open a feature request. ;-)
But I think I don't need to remember you that the "full pharo team" are not just us, it includes all of you too. Any help (implementing cool stuff, fixing bugs or just reporting them) is always welcome (and talking by myself, I welcome much more the first, "implementing cool stuff" ;) I just started with Pharo, so give me a few weeks (to implement cool stuff ;-))
excellent!
Appreciate your work.

Hello,
i have a question. Why does the code completion offers methods that were removed?
probably because it works at the symbol level and not method dictionary. May be removing a method could unintern its selector from the symbol cache.
I have some cases where deleted methods still listed as "symbol (no implementors)".
where? In nautilus? In workspace, nautilus, ... the removed methods still listed in the code completion popup.
I removed the messages with nautilus and also with the default system browser. Same effect.
if this is an bug, i can open a ticket.
