I was following a thread and even posted a comment about my thoughts when suddenly the original poster along with the thread disappeared into the ether, when a user voluntarily deletes their account does it take their posts with them? Or is this a result of a ban? I just wondered how curiosity because I've never seen a thread just disappear like that before
Okay thank you for the reply. And now I know to think "Oh, the person got banned" instead of "huh, am I going nuts?"
We forum users can report posts like spam if we think it violates TOU. Then the moderators will make the decision to delete it. I’ve reported quite a few over the years and they have all disappeared quickly. To report a post, reply etc just hit the 3 horizontal bars at the lower left and go from there. It’s painless but probably want to read up on what violates the tou first.
Oh I usually don't because I struggle with in person social situations. So I feel that it would be pretty easy to end up reporting something only to realize that I misinterpreted the post or I'm just being an idiot, ect. It's the reason why I don't run a forum of my own or try being a moderator. shoot, it never even occurred to me that the thread that got deleted might have even been an advertisement.
Many times, it don't even have to be reported. The moderators see evwrything... They're everywhere......
Becoming a moderator on the forum is probably the equivalent of an individual trying to become the CEO of a company or the president of the U.S.A., extraordinarily difficult without the right credentials and / or experience. God bless every American and their families! God bless the U.S.A.! The absolute sheer driving force of our national economy - without truck drivers, our entire national economy would come to an absolute standstill - if not outright be dead. Over the mountains, through the woods, into the valleys, coast to coast, from sea to shining sea - truck drivers can and do go anywhere and everywhere, every day, every night, all year round.
Having a been a game admin and forums admin its not hard just tedious. That said please don't compare being hated by half the country if not more to being the president, CEO of a company aint too hard just if you fail your company will suffer. I have been all those those positions once except one and I have no desire to be hated by half the country ever so thats one position I will never try for we all need to know our limits. Lastly, you can be CEO of a company and still not be rich only aged a bit from all the stress was a Christian organization stores was fun to see all the things people give as donations and meeting all the nice people
