Bitcoin Forum

Hello guys,

I just noticed that when you delete a post, all replies connected to that post will be removed alongside it.
The dilemma is when you have a reply that was deleted, the count of that post in your activity is also removed.

It just feels quite odd that sometimes when I'm arguing with someone then everything will just go to waste when he deletes the starting post.

Or please someone enlighten me. Maybe I'm missing something here.

IIRC that only happens when moderators delete a post as they usually clean up anything related to that inital post.
As there mostly (/always) is a reason for posts being deleted by moderators (them violating the forum rules), the follow up discussion should be deleted alongside.
I support that practice, as it keeps threads clean and avoids stupid questions afterwards for leftover tails from offtoic/rule-violating discussions.

Of course, you don't get activity for posts that aren't there anymore, as the activity is always calculated according to your recent (or rather almost your recent) post history.
Remind me, what's the "dilemma" again? Not ranking fast enough to earn bigger from signature campaigns?

As said, only applies to deletions by mods, and they have reasons to do it.

Thank you Lutpin, for a clear, honest answer.
Shall I lock the thread now?
