Title: Post Deletion
Post by: West Aussie Glen on April 19, 2015, 09:03:44 AM
Either I am older than I think (memory failing drastically) or one of my posts was deleted.
If a post is deleted does the author get informed and told why?

If we delete a post we "generally" advise the original poster of the deletion and why.......so that's GENERALLY as time permits etc, however sometimes you may get caught up in the deletion of a thread by following with a post of your own etc  ;-*

No they don't get told that it has been deleted or why . .
I think it would be nice if we did, besides being polite it would allow one to asess how they post so there was no need in the future for ones post to be deleted.

Glen,

If I was to delete a post of your, or any one for that matter (even Peters posts) then I send an email to the poster. The only time I dont is when I do a thread cleanup to remove a number of off topic/ or getting nasty posts, thyen I will place a post saying "Off topic posts removed" or the like.

As you are one of the better posters, I cant think of any reason a Mod would have deleted a post. I havent deleted any posts for a while, better start exercising my delete finger maybe..

Premature post pillage is a permanent punt in the posteriors of poor people who presume perpetuity of practical procedures proferred as princely purposeful personal points of view. Post pillage is poison!
