instead of
> revoke delete on my table from public;

i did :
revoke delete on my table from tradein (which is me) ;

tradein_clients=> BEGIN WORK; delete from users where userid=34866;
BEGIN
ERROR: users: Permission denied.
tradein_clients=> ROLLBACK ;
ROLLBACK
tradein_clients=> UPDATE users set password='mallah' where userid=34866;
UPDATE 1
tradein_clients=>

does public not include me??

mallah.
