Why are links to posts that got a user autobanned not available in the modlog?

[Bitcoin_Arena]

I was looking at the Modlog and then I realized that you can know from which thread a particular user's reply was deleted from but when it comes to nuked and autobanned users, all one sees is N/A in topic #0 which links to no post.



In other words we cannot know what post got a particular user nuked or autobanned.
For Nuked users it's understandable because all their posts gets wiped out but is there any particular reason why we cannot get a possible link of the post that got a user autobanned probably for plagiarism or spamming through the Modlog?

I was thinking it would be much easier and transparent to know why one was banned without tedious effort of looking through one's post history.


Apologies in advance, in case this topic has been discussed before, I will lock this thread if am alerted. I just wasn't able to locate any recent thread about it.

The posts are normally just deleted. I think it's a quirk with smf.

It is usually the moderators giving a ban and deleting the post from that post so you can't see it as it just goes from the database...

Hilarious and Co often leaves them there but other mods and he might not sometimes, it's usually if the post is a blatant rule breaker that it needs to be deleted (like begging).

My understanding that these user might get banned in Altcoins giveaway thread. Since giveaway is against the rule so thread is trashed and all the users who posted there get banned. (so you do not see the thread and users got banned.)

I get that, especially for deleted or trashed threads or Nuked users because all their posts get wiped out.
But I am talking about users who are banned mostly for plagiarism. AFAIK, their plagiarized posts don't get deleted for future reference in case of appeal but for some reason, any user checking the modlog can not get a link to the post that got the user banned(autobanned).
