Jeez it's difficult to help people in this place!
I posted a thread about a couple of issues with a membership script used by 35,000 people (along with a link to where people could get details of how to fix the issues) - thread got deleted.
After a comment saying along the lines of "put the details here rather than direct people to your site for answers", I did exactly that - thread got deleted.
There's a pretty major security issue with plugins (and themes that use those plugins) that thousands of people use for their online businesses. Absolutely no link to my site, only a link to the official announcement of the issue. Thread got deleted.
If you're running an online business, then surely the security of your website (and everything that can be taken from it if it's hacked) is pretty important?
Me - I'd like to be told there's an issue with something so I can be aware of it and take whatever action is needed - wouldn't you?
Seriously, trying to pass on useful info here is hard work sometimes - a lot harder than it should be that's for sure.

Moderated: And here's the rest of the story...
You did create a post, as was suggested, to give people the information you thought they needed. But you left your original post intact, link and all. You don't get to link to your site in your posts, that's been against the rules for years.
Reposting a deleted thread is also against the rules. So your second thread actually violated two rules: reposting a deleted thread and posting a link to your site.
And, posting a thread about your thread being deleted is against the rules as well. You might want to read those rules.
