My names Zari... wtsup?

Why have all my posts been deleted?

I made a bunch of posts today and now they're all gone?

Can someone please tell me why this may be?

They get deleted if several of them are similar.

They're not deleted they've been flagged.

Basically if you make loads of extremely short posts in a short amount of time (which you did) they're removed until we can determine if you're only here to spam or not.

If you are your account is suspended, if you're not you get them back.

lol ok

so all of them get flagged, not just the ones that were "too short" ?

helikonia · 12-15-2009, 02:26 PM

ok i guess that's a yes.

ANOTHER QUESTION:

is it considered spam to post a link to an article on a news website?

Urban Hat€monger ? · 12-15-2009, 02:26 PM

It wasn't that they were 'too short'

It was that they added nothing to the thread they were posted in.

And yes it is considered spam if you're just going to fill the forum with crap to get to 16 posts so you can post that link.

thanx for the heads up.

So the other forums you actually like just consist of "hey", "yes", "no", "here's a link to a news article"?

So your saying your only here to post this "news link" you have...

Oh that sounds like the type of excitement this forum needs to spice things up a lil' bit!

Why don't you chug out 15 more worthless posts while we consider it.
