I started before going out this morning. It's been deleted?

An innocent post of mine was recently deleted with no reason given.

There’s some useful guidance on why some threads are deleted which has been posted this morning by GNHQ’s Annie.

Can you tell us in which Thread, so that we may pop over to read?

Well I nearly did but thought better of it. You should be able to work it out I think.

The address to use is given at the foot of the page in the desktop version. You're bound to be able to find it on the mobile version somewhere.

It comes under the 'Help and Information' section. (The bit no-one ever seems to read grin)

I understand Tuliptree. Will have a look.

I am guessing there was something wrong with it.

GNHQ said on another thread, people can ask why they got deleted. And gave an email address I think it was, to contact.
Going by a number of threads, I get the impression they may not necessarily get any answer back.

I also get the impression that nowadays[maybe since a new CEO?], that GNHQ will ban a poster if they want to.
It does say in the rules, in the first sentence I think it is, that they will if they want to.
No idea how many deletions, if any, before they may do that.

My opinion is that posters have to get used to a new way of GNHQ doing things.
Their site. Their rules.

A poster did say once, that GNHQ could get taken to court.
Cant see how. But what do I know.
But until that happens[doubt it would], we had better behave ourselves!
And keep rereading the rules.
