Title: Deleted posts with no notification
Post by: bitbets on October 17, 2014, 04:41:47 AM


Hi.

Two of my topic posts were deleted, without any notifications sent to me.


wondering why? or maybe my bitcointalk account got hacked?

happens when the topic you posted gets deleted.

But not otherwise, as far I know

You won't get a notification if the topic is manually moved to the trashcan (which isn't really deleted, it's just a staff only forum called trashcan).

Well, you know, some of my posts, I spent some time putting them together, but if you don't want them here
at bitcointalk, I may still want those posts to put elsewhere on the internet then,
so it would be nice if I could get a copy of the trashcanned posts.

Also, if I had a copy, I could show you what was deleted, and ask why it was trashcanned, when I
do not see why it was trashcanned.

But thank you for taking the time to reply to my inquiry :)

If you pressed Preview before posting, the post gets sent to your drafts.
Might be a good idea to look there too. Just don't ask me how to get to that area xD

You say not to ask you how to get to the drafts area?

And then you provide a link to my own personal drafts or posts?

Can I access the drafts myself usually though? If so, how?(I know you told me not to ask, but I am wondering, or is it because users don't usually have access to the drafts? )

Thank you for your help.

When I said not to ask me, I meant I didn't know how to get there at the time xD but then I remembered what the link was to reach the drafts.
I don't know if there is a button you can click to reach your drafts area, but you can use that link instead to get there.

When writing a post, just below the buttons "Post" and "Preview" there's a text "Click preview to save a draft (https://bitcointalk.org/index.php?action=drafts)".
