Why do some of my posts not get posted?
I've written 2 posts in the last week that did not get posted. Both probably had sensitive wording in them but I did not receive any feedback about the posts. Do posts just get deleted without me being notified?
Thanks

Hope you can get to the cause but the mods have always worker with me to help fix things before not just deleted 😊

Hello @Former-Member
if moderators delete a post an email is attached stating why it has been removed, (referring to the guideline it has breached) and also a suggestion on how to edit the post so it can be re posted.

Hi @Former-Member
Let me follow this up for you 🙂
Can you remember any information about the 2 posts?
What discussion were they in or if they were new discussions that you started, do you remember what you called them?
Do you remember roughly what time of day/night it was?
Nik

I've had that happen a couple of times, and being new, just figured I accidentally hit the much larger CANCEL button instead of the smaller POST button.

Hi @Former-Member
That is so unusual! It's clear that none of your posts are in that thread, and I just looked through all the removed posts and there's nothing from you there at all.
I also looked in your 'Drafts' (which is where things auto-save if you start a post and don't press 'Post' or 'Cancel' it auto-saves and there is nothing for that discussion in there.
I'm really lost with this one.
It sucks that it's gone missing after the time and energy you spent putting it together. But please know, it wasn't removed because it wasn't helpful or breached any guidelines!
Please keep us informed if this happend again!

Also, if the net drops at the wrong moment can do it, too 🙂

Re: Why do some of my posts not get posted?
I so understand the feeling of rejection. I have always been a shy, introverted type of person, and rejection/criticism crushes me and sends me running.
On BlueBoard, I struggled with blueps (the mods would send messages explaining why thread was taken off or modified) but it still felt "personal".
I began mentioning to newcomers to not take the blueps personally, as was just keeping the site safe.
However, when I am vulnerable, to have a thread taken down, I can feel such rejection I struggle to even stay on the site.
I understand your post completely.
(Bells now shrinks into the corner, wondering if she's going to get whopped for posting this.)
Hugs 🙂 🙂 🙂
