I have noticed that after posting on certain forums my postings disappear. Should I assume that they are being deleted for whatever reason or perhaps
there is a technically issue? Anyways, been reading the site for a long time, finally started an account and am unclear. Thanks.

Hi, I'm one of the many ATS Mods here at the forum. We appreciate you joining up with the ATS Family.
We have a very strict code in place for our members to adhere to which helps keep the machine 'running smoothly'. One of these is that members need to
post their thoughts in the appropriate areas.
This area is solely for introducing yourself (as you can see by browsing through other Introduction threads by new members). We apologize for this
inconvenience, but its a necessity for a website as large as ours. After you have managed to get 20 posts under your belt, you can then start your own
threads in their appropriate areas.
Thread closed, you can contact me by a private message for more information if needed after you have read the links provided above. Or
you can also contact staff by alerting them hereComplaints and

If the post is deleted it will also state the violation by the mods. They can delete for lots of things. Off Topic Posts, Ill Mannered
Behaviour,Political Trolling(whatever that is) They even remove posts that contain links to sites that ATS does not like.
If your posts are deleted,it should say why.
If the posts are gone all together then it might be a glitch.
Welcome to being public If your posts are deleted there will be a big ole' sign in their place and a pm from your friendly Mod. Won't be no
mystery to it a' tall.
I know that some of my comments have been deleted and they were not in any way offensive, wrong or too short. I used to think it must be a technical
fault. So, welcome and I can't answer your question but I experienced the same.
You know i've seen this happen a few times over the years at ATS too. I will post a reply. It will be there. I 'll read it on the thread. go
back the next day and it's gone. just simply vanished. I just figured it was some glitch. But you are not alone.
It's not one of those where the post was deleted with an explanation. it's just simply gone altogether like it was never typed.
We can get pretty heated on these boards
civily of course..
I have seen the mods been chilling out
not have had a problem..
sometimes you get a post removed
it is life on ats.. sometimes you will make
a post that probably should get removed
its up the mods and aint a damn thing anyone
else can do about it really so go with the flow
Over the years, I have lost a few comments but never without an explanation from the ATS authority.
I don't always agree with policy here but I have never seen comments or posts simply disappear without someone walking out onto the stage to explain
why.
Perhaps you have made the same mistake I have made a couple of times when I went to another thread with a similar topic/headline. I've learned to go
to myATS in the header bar to find the thread I have posted upon. It is faster to do it that way anyway.
No no mistakes. I too go to myats and take it from there. sometimes I see the post completely vanish. Like I never posted them to begin with. I
say it's a technical glitch.
