I have had posts deleted with no explanation of why and I know they never contained personal insults or verbal attacks on other members. When they were deleted, I couldn't even fathom an explanation as to why they would have been deleted. Yet, there are entire threads whose sole purpose is to attack other members and they are left up and even joined in on by admin/mods.

Also, you don't see the PMs behind the scenes that are forwarded to us where members might be attacking or harassing other members. If you did see those, you have might have a whole different view of what people say when it's not said in public.

Your posts don't have to contain a verbal attack or personal insult to be deleted and it clearly states this in YT rules.

I'm not really sure how to explain things to you further than this -- we don't live in a black and white world and won't make 63,000+ human beings agree on our decisions at all times - nor is that our goal. If you have further questions or comments, I'd suggest you PM Admin directly. Thanks.

When I say I wonder, I do genuinely mean that I don't understand. I can believe there's a lot going on behind the scenes, but it does feel different to me than it has before. I don't know. It seems like others feel the same way, so I don't feel like I'm just totally crazy. Then again, other disagree, so yeah....

2. We do NOT DELETE threads or posts, unless they break YT rules. Therefore, please be mindful of the information you share. If you do not want people to know your full name or details about your personal life, do NOT post it. Anyone who accesses our community will be able to read your posts. YT is not responsible for anything that may result from one of your posts. Any posts that are downright sick or cruel towards another member or their Yorkie will not be tolerated and will be deleted. Your account may be banned depending on the severity of your actions or if you are a repeat offender.

With all due respect Ann, rule #2 says otherwise - or is there another place in the rules that discusses this?

And all Armani was asking was why her posts were deleted if she didn't break the rules - she didn't ask about someone else's.

Quicksilver... you are not the only one wondering about this - some of mine have been deleted and I've wondered why especially when others before and after mine were way out of line.
