Zach Kaplan Posted March 16 Share Posted March 16 Does anyone know why a post I started earlier this week has been erased or disappeared? Did I do something wrong? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Jamie Horner Posted March 16 Share Posted March 16 I have not deleted any posts this week. Where was the post? What was it titled? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Jim Kovar Posted March 16 Share Posted March 16 Just don't do this!... Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Stan Adams Posted March 16 Share Posted March 16 I did not erase yours, in fact I added your full name so it wouldn't be deleted. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Rod Rogers Posted March 16 Share Posted March 16 Unless it was posted using a bogus name, I did not delete it. What was your username at the time you posted? Rod Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Zach Kaplan Posted March 16 Author Share Posted March 16 Weird. I posted a comment on a Westinghouse 1930s fan. There were some responses but then it disappeared?! Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Jamie Horner Posted March 17 Share Posted March 17 Sorry Zach, there are 17 pages of posts that contain Westinghouse within the post or in the post title, so I couldn't begin to track down your missing post without more specifics. Was the post initiated by you? Do you know the title? And what forum was the post in initially? That might help in trying to pinpoint where it went. We don't randomly erase posts, and the forum software shouldn't be deleting anything, only backing it up. Now, on the other hand, posts created without a valid user name (First Name/Last Name) might possibly be deleted. If comments throughout the post are derogatory or political in nature, the post may also get deleted regardless of whether the comments were made by the initiator of the post or someone posting in reply. And lastly, if the post has broken the rules of the forum in any way like posting in an incorrect forum, etc., the post may either have been deleted or moved to a different forum and look as though it had been deleted. Unfortunately, there are many scenarios, and we would need more specifics in order to be able to track down your missing post claim. And honestly, the search options are not great in the forum, so we may never be able to track it down, but I think we're all willing to try. If you have any more specifics for us to go on, please let us know and we can continue to try to locate the missing post for you. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Rod Rogers Posted March 17 Share Posted March 17 Once again, what name did you post under? If you originally used a bogus name, both your post and registration would have been deleted. Then you would have to re-register. Is this the case? Rod Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Zach Kaplan Posted March 17 Author Share Posted March 17 Thanks to you both. I am new here so likely made some mistake. There were not political or insulting remarks in the post. So not sure. I will repost a new one. I really appreciate the time and support. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
