Why was my post removed?

What a load of absolute disrespect. I bet the mod didn't even bother to read it. They looked at the title and couldn't care less that it had taken me over an hour to write it.
I have a valid complaint and I expect to have the right to voice my opinion on these forums.

    did it get removed? or did it just get moved to another section of the forums?

    It got straight up deleted. I checked my account. One second it was successfully posted and the next it was removed and it said that I "do not have permission to view this post or content is missing".
  • Did you edit it within 5 minutes of posting? It gets flagged for mod checking if you edit soon after posting, can be released by a mod.

    I did. I was trying to put quotes around something so people didn't reply the obvious.
    Why does it immediately delete the post? Without warning.

    It didn't delete it. It just hid it from view until mods review it. Because immediately editing posts is something usually only done by maniacs, and hiding posts from maniacs until they can be reviewed by non-maniacs is generally a good thing.

    Now, given that you immediately made a completely level-headed and non-maniacal post in response to your original post not showing up, obviously you aren't a maniac and this was a total error that will be soon fixed.

    Thanks. I'll know that for next time. I didn't know these forums had a form of spam control. I just assumed it was all done by humans.

    Wow I am offended

    Now I am reconsidering whether to unmark your post as not a spam and let it appear in the forums again!
