Why are posts being deleted?

This is where our community discusses almost anything! While we're mainly a Cambodia expat discussion forum and talk about expat life here, we debate about almost everything. Even if you're a tourist passing through Southeast Asia and want to connect with expatriates living and working in Cambodia, this is the first section of our site that you should check out. Our members start their own discussions or post links to other blogs and/or news articles they find interesting and want to chat about. So join in the fun and start new topics, or feel free to comment on anything our community members have already started! We also have some Khmer members here as well, but English is the main language used on CEO. You're welcome to have a look around, and if you decide you want to participate, you can become a part our international expat community by signing up for a free account.

I had to go digging to see what you were talking about. Presumably, it was in the 'club love/pontoon' thread.

I can't imagine why you'd be losing sleep over your back and forward with Snoink.
Here is the extent of your conversation:

" Artisan: Get some sleep.

Snoink: Not exactly a convenient time to Promote yourself, is it?

Artisan: weirdo

Snoink: Murderer.

Artisan: popcorn"

No doubt it was deleted for taking up valuable cyber space. :please:

or, possibly for being a little off topic. :facepalm:

There is a pretty heavy accusation in the content albeit, maybe tongue in cheek. Just saying...

Thank you.
Could've been easily resolved with a PM to any mod, but now that it's public..

I'll fess up that I'm the "deleter". :assasin:

As to my behaviour, UT soundly covered the reasons for that in his earlier post: post484426.html#p484426

I would only add the catalyst for me doing so was one of those posts (I think you can guess which one) was reported by a member along the lines of 'sinking to a new low'. I did think whether the post was 'tongue in cheek' or otherwise.. but for the reasons UT mentioned, I thought it better to just clean up the conversation (if you can call it that :mrgreen: ).

As to whether to notify, I thought it would be self evident why it might be deleted and therefore not necessary. I also thought it not something likely to get precious/concerned about. Seems I was wrong about that. :pardon:

So there you have it. You know, GM is a slave driver and us poor, unpaid, tireless mod souls have to sometimes make certain decisions as best we can for the benefit of the majority..
