EYT admitted that they did the post delete. For some reason they actually apologized, a little. TGR says they have no idea what happened, but that they retained a guy to address spam, and he most likely deleted a post from the "partners wanted" threads; and I suppose that was their answer.
I do agree with you some as to the importance of my lost post, I absolutely do NOT agree that it's unimportant. Not if you ever want to get a better site, better posters, more interesting topics. I DO think its kinda rude, to actually call someone out by NAME, then to Lose the response you actually CALLED for. But as you say, being delicate is not your thing ... or being sensitive, I suppose, to any duty to your posters. I understand that, I ain't delicate either. Hell, many days I don't even wear undies and I always smell good, even without deodorant. Just like you; we are almost the same-same.
I takes a lot of time to make even the most rudimentary posts, even if you can touch type at a reasonable speed. A GOOD post takes a lot of time, usually some links, maybe a picture you have to scan and host up. Having posts disappear WILL kill you with high quality posters.
Of course, if you ARE satisfied with the kind of short-winded postings you usually get (and make?), well then, I guess you WANT to live within the status-quo, and do NOT want to grow the site. Thats cool. It's Slacker, but thats cool by definition, IF you're actually a slacker.
How much time do you think I will put into this sites posts if I expect to get things "Gone Missing"? How much will other posters put in?
When a topic grabs me, I been known to put HOURS into deep composition and structuring a post. That kind of thing encourages people to respond in kind, and frequently if the subject actually gets hot. That makes a site's metrics SPIN and makes Alexa think you got something worth buying. It draws new blood into the site. If this were a BUSINESS, you might put more weight to that.
But OK, that whole growth thing doesn't fascinate you, you WANT to be posting in/on an obscure and lonely website. I can get that. Thanks for your deeply felt sense of responsibility and personal concern for my minor frustration. I can feel your compassion, its like a wave of Motherhood, Charity and Love washing over me.
You will get lonely, but some women like that.
