Hey, my posts have been deleted a couple of times, and I'm not sure why, thus can't avoid making the same mistake in the future. Would it be possible to get posts notifying you why your post was deleted when your post is deleted?

This would create an unrealistic volume of clerical work on top of the maintenance. However, if you have a question about a specific post, feel free to ask.

Posts are deleted that often? Sorry, didn't realize that.

Two questions, actually:

1. I had a post in the stoicism thread, asking what stoicism is. The post was deleted.

2. I the Deja Vu thread, I made a post saying that I accidentally voted incorrectly, and asked if there was a way to change it. This post was also deleted.

Thanks,

BF

You're on the internet. Look it up. Try Google (http://www.google.com/search?q=stoicism). You were interrupting a serious discussion for basic definitions. If you have questions about specifics, fine, but don't ask for basic definitions of words because you aren't willing to look them up yourself.

2. I the Deja Vu thread, I made a post saying that I accidentally voted incorrectly, and asked if there was a way to change it. This post was also deleted.

The middle of a thread is not the place to make support requests. Report the post, PM a moderator or make a thread in the support forum.
