Moderator's Note

[Bttzed03]

This is the first time I had my comments merged and have a moderator's note





Is this something new or mods do this for merged posts only?

I get this deleted message as well just earlier today from my post on Report plagiarism (copy/paste), reporting copy-paster users.

I guess this is new in regards of the request of some users here (like this one) when mods deleting a post to identify on what forum rule(s) has been violated, thanks to theymos  .

It's not new, it depends on the mod. I know that mprep adds a note to explain the merge of posts (we can't properly merge 2 posts/topics, that's why some mods edit the first post and delete the second one), I do that kind of thing too.
The best thing to do is to avoid double posts.

I see. Thanks for the clarifying and Yes, it was mprep.
IIRC, we were testing the telegram bot if he'll get two separate notifications for a post quote and a "@" mention that time.

So it's not just on merged posts. It was probably the same mod who checked our post
