Now it has happened twice, why do you erase my replies? Atleast give me a reason why you are doing this.

Only yourself or staff can delete your messages - we have a no-deletion policy here. Could you explain more about these deletions?

i.e. content? if they contain content against the rules they would have been edited, not deleted.

They didn't contain any rude language or personal attacks. I wrote the same reply twice in this thread: http://www.hardwareheaven.com/showthre...threadid=12846 they both disappeared. I even think that ByteMe answered the first one. But it's ok, now I know that neither the admins or mods erased them, larger things have disappeared from databases, ask M$ activation center

Odd. BTW, we don't use any MS products here as DH runs on a Linux box

I think Gog posted a comment basically stating his belief that the US govenment was extremely dumb. He wasn't rude, but shortly afterwards his post was deleted. It seemed to me that someone with a bias twoards the Bush administration may have taken exception to his post and deleted it. But of course I don't know that for sure, but as DH is a linux box, it is unlikely to have happend by accident.

Quite a bit of speculation.

There is also the possibility he accidentally deleted it himself or it was a line or server issue. Nevertheless if this continues to happen, we can remove the option for members to delete threads, then if it is indeed a moderator we can investigate and take the appropriate action.

As it stands this thread is resolved. closed.
