    Either you broke a rule, posted in the wrong forum, or are asking questions that have already been answered tons of times.

    I suggest reading the rules. When you do you'll find that asking about why a thread was deleted is against the rules so this one will probably go away too.

      Yeah I think I will delete my account then they have tons of threads so if you are asking something they should respect it is a forum. But thanks for the. Heads up glad I didnt give them my money. And the search bar is not a good tool to look it up I simply made thread as a newbie and asked questions other newbies might want to know and also I gave so good tips. I am a writer and dont like when forums delete your post when you are not spamming

        Think of how stupid the average person is, and realize half of them are stupider than that.

          If someone wants their account deleted they should submit a support ticket through the help desk.

    From what I've seen, every thread you've started, is a question that gets asked a dozen times a week.
    This one is no exception either.
    Sorry but you did ask.

    The only one that I saw that was deleted you were asking a very general question "Can a person make money using the WF?" and then right after that you followed it with a sentence asking why are posts being deleted.

    The moderator made a judgment call, one that I agree with.

    Some of your other questions already had been asked and they were still on the first page. You might want to look what's on the first page before you create a new thread.

      I agree it was a good call. The question was quite similar to another thread the OP started 2 days ago.

      The questions asked are so general - and OP's participation in comments that follow so low - the threads look signature driven even though that may not be the intent.

    I haven't seen your threads. Generally, they are mostly deleted for:

    1. Dropping links in posts (affiliate or not)
    2. Self promotion
    3. Wrong section
    4. Rude or inflammatory
    5. Nonsense posted just for signature exposure or post count

    As for the search ... don't bother. It works so poorly, you'll never find what you're looking for.

    EDIT: Just saw the mod's response, so the above doesn't seem applicable to your posts.

      If treads don't get deleted, they can leave stains behind, which can make things difficult for everyone else, especially as more and more treads run over each other, covering the same stuff. The posts can get hard to read with too many treads all over them. The muddy treads are the worst. I'm glad they're cleaning them up.

      If you don't want your treads deleted, please wipe your shoes before coming in.
