Red background means locked.

[Dante]

Hmm, damn. Oh well, thanks Nema.

[Seal89999]

Were not allowed to delete our own posts anymore?

[lowzeewee]

Hmm, I successfully deleted one of my post.

[Andrew]

Odd, I don't see a post by you in the dungeon.

[Seal89999]

LOL thats funny if you think about it. ::)

[Andrew]

It took me about 10 seconds to get it.

But there really are none by him on first page, therefor I want to know what happened to the supposed post he deleted. Must be a conspiracy. >:D

[Seal89999]

Must be....... 8)

[lowzeewee]

There is a crazy moderator on the loose deleting my posts again! I posted in the Site Updates thread just hours ago and now it's gone? >:(

[erjin999]

Was it a one word post ? That might explain it.

[lowzeewee]

It was about 3 words.

[Gobalopper]

The world must be ending moderators are deleting lowzeewee's posts!

[lowzeewee]

Seriously, there is a conspiracy around here.... :O

[erjin999]

The world must be ending moderators are deleting lowzeewee's posts!

Would it not be a good idea for either the mods to edit the post to the words of "POST REMOVED" and leave it there, thereby showing WHO edited/removed it, and showing that there was a post removed ?

Or at the very least, a IM to say that its been done and for reasons (unless it truely obvious, then no reason need be given)...

[nemafakei]

Do you know how big the dungeon is? If we had to send IMs for every post we deleted... it would just be pointless.

Editing to 'POST REMOVED' is no better for one word spam, and for larger messages, the original content is lost.

its the landsrrad again... ;)

[Andrew]

I would say it is Googlebot. It is the new evil.

[Seal89999]

its the landsrrad again... ;)

Quiet yourself child......

[Andrew]

Quiet? ???

And it's Landsraad, Landsraad Bond.

[Seal89999]

Thanks for that Andrew  ;)

[Gobalopper]

There is a moderator log so if I really need to know who did it I can always find out. As for reasons the only time we do is if a thread is moved and even then its optional. If you need to know why just IM one of the moderators/staff.

[lowzeewee]

I'll let the matter rest...but if it happens again... >:(

[Andrew]

Then according to Gob you should

IM one of the moderators/staff

if you have a problem.

[lowzeewee]

Lol the International School of Forum Rules! :D And the lecturer is Andrew.

Alright enough of this. ;) Gob, looks like the front page is stale huh? Is that why we aren't having as many members coming in as before? :-

Make me staff for a day then I will know how big the dungeon is, otherwise, no, I dont know.

I dont think it would be as bad as one word spam if POST REMOVED is placed in an edited message because its actually informative. To others who will realise that someone has had a post removed, and it will let the offender know who removed it.

But of course they are only friendly suggestions.  ;)
