Topic: Thread Removal? Posted: 30 June 2010 at 7:58am |
I posted a thread about something and it appears to have vanished. Do the mods not tell you when they remove your thread and why?

I would say its the Kylie thread ... apparently mods do delete such threads, although It had no links so im not sure why they would in this case.
Maybe post in the meet up thread

It did have links to both websites in the first post, but I think that is a bit harsh!

Yeah, I find it weird that one is still there but the other isn't and yet the one they have left is more advertising then the second on.
I thinks its rude they don't have an email that it sent if they have removed it.
Bizzy, the one I amlooking for I put up last night and its def gone.

maybe you should email them... i thought it was only against the rules to advertise your own products. otherwise all those posts we make about cool things we see or want to do would be removed too...

are you sure you pushed the submit button? they generally have to have someone report the posts before they notice and remove them?

They removed a thread that Booboo started a while back where she was looking for CHCH people to book a photography session with me. I hadn't posted in it either!

Was it the Snappy coming to CHCH??? I saw that last night...
I think a pm or email to say you have broken guidelines and your thread has been removed would have been courteous... at least then you would know. I would have posted the same thing not realising it was not allowed.

Hi ladies, and thanks for your opinions. The website moderators don't have to email or PM you when we remove a thread, because we expect that you know the rules. (We do sometimes email the newbies to remind them to read the forum guidelines, but generally we don't email.)
We don't permit advertising of products, services, fundraisers, auctions, donations, etc, without our prior permission, and this includes advertising for other people. If we are informed of a thread or post that is breaching our rules, we will remove it. Our moderators are also checking out the forums from time to time to make sure that everything is on the up and up.
If you do come across any threads that are questionable, please click the Report this Post button, or PM one of your moderators and we'll look into it.
Cheers from Katherine and the OHbaby! Team

Yes that would be great, cos as fair as I was aware it was just you and Emma (when she was working for OB).

Perhaps it is time to look at having an automatic email then as it has caused confusion for all and I have obviously missed replies.
But bizzy has made a good point in that we often put links to cool sites etc up and these are not removed.
One of the threads I started (linked above) has more "advertising" than the one listed so some consistency would probably be a good idea.
Edited to add: I am not attempting to pick and single out anyone but was just curious of the rules. Are any of these advertising?
