Veemaxt Posted October 16, 2014 Share Posted October 16, 2014 Hello Forum Admins and Mods, just out of interest, why was my thread about what I found on Ebay deleted? It would be nice to receive a small notification when content is deleted. Deleting without saying anything leaves a bad aftertaste and leaves me thinking if there is some sort of censoring going on?. Would you kindly let me know what happened ? Thanks. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Imaru Posted October 16, 2014 Share Posted October 16, 2014 Probably a good idea to PM the commods about it rather than make a thread. Im sure they had a reason to delete it. Also I agree a notification when a thread is deleted would be very nice. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Making threads about moderation is generally against the rules. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
UmamiSalami Posted October 16, 2014 Share Posted October 16, 2014 My assumption is that it was probably considered advertisement of the item. I'm pretty sure you shared it with advertising as the last thing on your mind. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
izzatuw Posted October 16, 2014 Share Posted October 16, 2014 Well, they already answered, it might be because it broke the rules. This thread will be moved and/or locked Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Orbister Posted October 16, 2014 Share Posted October 16, 2014 Because Warframe forums are very strict (to use an euphemism) and real life rules don't really apply here, if something is not of the "right" it will get deleted, banned, locked, suspended or whatever.

Veemaxt Posted October 16, 2014 Author Share Posted October 16, 2014 Am I not allowed to question a moderation?? I think so! I have moderated forums for the last, hmm, almost 20 years now, and know that a forum is a 2 way game. If my thread is deleted without any sort of notification, I find this highly unusual and request clarification. I'm not having a dig and not questioning anyones authority. Im simply asking what happened :) However, I must add, I did actually open a support ticket yesterday to expose my "finds" :) Might have something to do with this. Im sure this happened to me before with another thread though. I just don't think it right to delete content without the Author being informed, and, more importantly, explaining why. As a Mod, I risk the user repeating the thread I deleted if I don't explain why it was deleted in the first place :) I will also write a PM.
