Title: Why are some of my posts deleted?
Post by: aardvark15 on March 05, 2016, 03:04:19 AM
In the last 2 days I have had 2 of my posts deleted by the moderators.  I looked at the posts and they weren't off topic and seemed to make sense to me.  They were maybe 2 sentences long but I see many others that are shorter.  Does anyone else get deleted posts?  What reason could they have to delete them?

I think everyone get deleted posts once or more when the post off topic, but i don't know, sometimes my post is related to the topic but get deleted also.

Because they are spam and are deleted by a mod or the post is self-moderated and he deletes them.

I too got a post deleted. The reason is for posting in off topic. I felt this to be good so that later we won't do the same mistake.

If the posting deleted Moderato definitely have a specific reason such as posting it in september last year about 5 of my posts deleted, when it's all posts  in the game and round deleted even in the post a week earlier ( Directbet thread ), because only posting a score that allowed, for discussion and others are not allowed. since then I almost never make a post on the game and round so one of the reasons deleted posts are off topic.

is usually the reason why delete posts because spam, off topic or reply to you has been very much discussed by others, so if you reply with the same answer and useless, of course post will be deleted

Spamming, Irrelevent posts and Old posts digging are the reasons to delete by moderators bro.

How do you expect an answer to your question if you dont show the posts?

I got only two posts of mine deleted yet, the first one was valid

How much profit are you gaining from those leaked CoinDice/Jack/Roll etc scripts anyway?
Might have been counted as trolling or insubstantial

But I'm not sure about this recent post that got deleted yesterday

Average time for blocks to be mined is 6 every hour, now do the math.

PS, It may differ slightly because of changing difficulty however
The second reply on https://bitcointalk.org/index.php?topic=1386310.0 which has been quoted by others in the thread multiple times. Was it deleted for being wrong or for being misleading?

In addition, don't posts that quote a non-existent post get deleted too?

Well that just means that you are posting off topic posts. That is the only reason that your posts will be deleted. They don't just randomly delete your post.

There is various reason for the deletion of your posts. If your posts are two sentences long but do not contain any meaningful content in it, it will be considered as spam. But it still depends on the mods discretion, though.

Since I started posting more in meta, Iam either being reported more or the mods have me tagged.
Last delete actually confirmed people trip over each other to get credit for who neg repped first.
Not saying it was wrong or right, just interesting to see where the line is drawn.

If you receive a up tick in deleted posts, does this get used against you for future posts when making a judgement?
Just curious.

Same problem.
This is not off-topic.

There are over 32 reasons for which your content might be deleted. People need to start reading the rules before complaining.

Not exactly. However, if you are repeatedly breaking the rules (thus your posts get deleted) then this increases the likelihood of a ban.

How do you expect an answer to your question if you dont show the posts?
Complaining comes before knowledge and reason apparently.

There's no such thing as "being tagged" by mods. Your post was most likely deleted for being insubstantial and/or trolling(going off the point)

Its at a mod's discretion, there is no "line"

If you receive a up tick in deleted posts, does this get used against you for future posts when making a judgement?
If a mod finds you specifically posting the same type of posts, that they have deleted(which in itself is a small warning) , you might even get temp-banned(which is done either by a select few Glob mods or admins)

Lastly, care to show example of deleted posts if you want my/public opinion

P.S: From what I remember, from ~3800 of my accurate reports, they are not related to your posts

Was just agreeing with a up tick,have little issue with them being deleted. The last three where off to some extent,could be argued but not going to bother as its very borderline at best.
Was not a accusation either just thought it was a good spot to confirm if you hit a certain level of deleted posts that you get additional scrutiny.
Not a dig at mods or you Mexxer,although 3800 is a tad high for one day! :P

I have also the same experience some of my post were also deleted saying that they maybe off topic and or for some reason. I dont also understand, because when I review my post it is always on topic. I am also wondering why they are deleting my post and how can I say they are off topic. I am actually thinking that maybe how I present the topic discussed I am confuse?

The link in your sig might be causing that problem. Appears you guys are getting different treatment these days, though not in the good way. I wonder why?

It appears to me, Bitcoin is rotten to the core, makes the banking sector look legit (morally of course)

Lol, I don't make 3k reports per day. Even the best guy (sho) only makes ~400 reports per activity period. I'm slightly slacking off I guess

You don't decide whether the post was on our off topic. That is not the moderators to decide. And don't worry, everyone gets posts deleted.

Don't like it? Leave the forum. There are a few other places you can go to.
