Posts disappearing

Dear Moderators

I have noticed some posts replying to Questions disappearing, here are a couple of threads it has happened to:

a pivot table that does not have conditions specified in the document

100% of the Data

If you look at the second one you'll see that swuehl has noticed this as well.

Any ideas what is up ?

Best Regards,     Bill

I think Bill Markham is referring to some posts we can't see anymore, e.g. his posting http://community.qlik.com/message/441922

(got the ID from the mail notifications).

I believe the original poster deleted his post, unfortunately this will also delete all replies to this post.

Personally I would prefer that deleting posts shouldn't be possible, because it breaks the history of a discussion.

I one prefers to delete some content, it is still possible to edit the post (though this may also break the history / flow of a discussion).

I expect you can see the same as me, which is the question and the replies that have not disappeared.

I cannot see the replies that have disappeared though and doubt you can.

Its possible if the author deletes the post from the thread.

Hi, Bill.

Nitin is correct; the author may have taken the original post down. I have only seen this happen if a moderator has taken down a post. With either action, in doing so they may also take down threads following that post as well as the thread will be 'orphaned' by the removed post.

Regards,

Neil
