    … It would be nice if we were to receive a courtesy notice when posts are virtually suicided indicating the reason (s).

    • The Answer to your code is as the result of the following plug in. As to why said plug in is present and/or necessary. That’s above my pay grade! For me though, the case against utilizing word-mess as a solution is patently clear.

    • “Suicide” is an odd choice of words.
      It’s a minimally / badly Moderated / maintained website.
      Mods (moderators) usually get paid…for a reason.
      It’s (can be) a full time job.
      There is no full time Mod’ on this website.
      A casually / badly maintained, unmoderated website (with *bad word* filters) will generate *anomalous* results.
      If the users are a bit old / paranoid etc, this will look (to them) a lot like “someone” deleting their posts.

    • It’s probably something like blakecosmos and Forum Borealis said. I imagine it’s also possible that the web hosting service, if it’s shared web hosting for instance, can’t always keep up with the traffic. In any case, I’m 99.999% sure the disappearances are tech glitches rather than anything deliberate.

    • I’ve learned to write a longer post in a word program first, then paste it into the What’s New box. Cuts down on the frustration of re-typing it again.
