Reality Bites
I think I remember, before the money thing came in, that we recieved a notification when we'd duplicated a thread. It gave the title and a link to the original thread where our post/thread had been merged? I could be wrong. I've been on a few forums. If I'm remembering incorrectly, my apologies. But it would be a handy thing to have, if it's possible.
At the moment, I get an alert telling me that money has been deducted from my account for a deleted thread. I assume this means the thread was merged, but I can't be certain. Especially considering that the last 2 or 3 times this happened, I was unable to work out what it was that I'd posted that was "deleted". Literally hours of searching. It's very confusing.
When a thread I've posted is merged, I like to go there and see what others have written and linked. I think most people would be the same. It is the point of the forum. To discuss crimes that we find and post?
On a seperate note, there is no notice given when a post is deleted. I'm wondering if it's something I'm overlooking in my settings, or is this the case for all users?
I had one deleted recently that I'm confused about. It wasn't offensive or against any forum rules that I'm aware of. I only noticed it gone when I clicked an alert saying that someone had posted in the thread. I noticed straight away that a few posts were missing, but I don't remember any of them being nasty.
I did notice in the credit section, a function for a deleted post deduction notification. But I've never recieved an alert for a deleted post that I'm aware of.
Is this something that can be looked at? I'd really like to be directed to a thread merge. And if the the thread or post was actually deleted, I think being given a reason might be apropriate. Or just a clue?
Thanks
