ydoaPs Posted August 2, 2004 Posted August 2, 2004 When you delete a post/thread, could you PM the person that wrote the post/thread to tell them which post/thread and why it was deleted?
atinymonkey Posted August 2, 2004 Posted August 2, 2004 If it's deleted, it's for a valid reason. All deleted posts are seen by the mods and admins, so if it wasn't a valid reason it will get put back. Seeing as some members have hundreds of posts deleted, and you only have space for 100 PM's, it would be a vast waste of time on many levels.
ydoaPs Posted August 2, 2004 Author Posted August 2, 2004 that is why u delete PMs. anyone who has over a hundred posts that need to be deleted in one day needs to be banned.
Sayonara Posted August 2, 2004 Posted August 2, 2004 Not going to happen. The only reason we would send a PM or other message is if the material posted was of an extreme nature. The rest of the time posts are deleted because they are off-topic, spam, or otherwise break the rules. Chances are everyone knows perfectly well when they make such a post that it will end up being deleted. The mods are not going to be asked to send a PM for every "lol!" they delete.
Dave Posted August 8, 2004 Posted August 8, 2004 Quite; it'd just waste a lot of time. I don't really relish the prospect of having to do that We have to put in a reason for deletion anyway, and if I see a reason that seems a bit dubious, I just have a quick check (as I'm sure most of the mods do).
