Title: My post was deleted, wrong moderation
Post by: Little Mouse on February 13, 2020, 12:08:53 AM
Recently I had translated LoyceV's guide to correct use of Trust system and posted on my local thread which is now deleted. I really can't think of the reason.
The only reason I have figured is, I have posted twice in a row. The previous post was also from me. Since we have no board, is not it common that we may post twice in a row? This is common sense. I am sure there's no other reason of deleting the post. This is really disappointing.

Double posting isn't normally a problem. It's a fairly flexible rule if there's a legitimate purpose for it.

I'm not sure why it would be deleted but I don't think we can do anything about it here, maybe you could try contacting the owner of that thread to ask why it was deleted if you haven't already. What language was it in and what thread?

There is no reason it should have been deleted especially if you were just doing a translation. I would re-post it personally and just preface the post explaining what it is and where you took it from. I'm guessing the thread is moderated by any moderator and not necessarily one for the section, so it could have been a mistake.
How long ago was your other post?

If it's a self-modded thread nothing can be done, but if that's the case I would create a new thread to act as your local one without self moderation.

I do not think the owner of the thread deleted the post. He is not active for the last two days. But the post was deleted hours ago. So, it was deleted by a global moderator or Cyrus. The language is Bengali. I do not know what's the wrong was. Nees an answer from the moderator who deleted.

I had changed the title, had shared link to the original post. Since no mistake from me, I do not think it will be wise to repost.

Maybe you've been reported by a hostile member and a moderator has "blindly" deleted your post without trying to deeply understand your bengali message? Posting in a row is forbidden, it's the rule #32 of the pinned thread (https://bitcointalk.org/index.php?topic=703657) you can read above so the removal is not contentious in the light of the rules AFAIK.
You can use the [hr] bbc tag to post a new content in a raw.

According to rule number 32. you shouldn't make multiple posts in a row. But this rule is flexible.
Sometimes, the poster has to make multiple posts in a row.
I usually report posts made in a row. But not always. For example when the post is too large and cannot be posted in one post.

If you edit the last post, your post won't be visible.
I report multiple posts if the second post has been made in less than 24 hours after the previous post.

(I edited the subject line)  ;)

Have you asked the moderator about it?  It might have been a mistake.

Try re-posting and adding some meta information in English (i.e.  This is a strict language translation of.. url).  :)

A simple way to be visible is to copy the content of the old post in the new one (and deleting it) instead of adding your new content to the old one.

Somebody may have reporting it, somebody may have made a mistake, ... there are also humans working there, you know. The best is to ask and clear up the situation. Just complaining may not really help.
As Vod said: did you try to PM any mod?

There's no reports on it in the queue. Contact one of the other Globals or hope that they see this and give you an answer.

Have not PM anyone because I do not know who exactly deleted. The one who deleted can only tell the reason. I have re-posted the post. May be this time it will not he deleted.
Locking the thread now. If the moderator who deleted thee post seen this, you can unlock the topic and share the reason because we need to learn from mistake.
