Is there being posts deleted by mods? I had one of mine gone "missing" last week. And 2 times in the last 2 days I have seen "risky" posts being deleted.

It happened once to me that one of mine was "missing" as well, but then it was there again a little later. I blamed anything "network-esque" for it.

Just now I see a post in the spy, but when I try to open it (in another Firefox tab, so the spy is still unchanged) it returns an error ("The requested topic does not exist").
As I wouldn't say the text I can see in the spy is "risky", I suppose the poster deleted his post just after posting it.

I assume the authors of the risky posts decided to do so themselves. Sometimes they also just edit the content away. You can usually watch it happen if you use the spy. ;)

afaik if you report a post it either stays unchanged or gets demongolated or deleted.
so quite possible that posts of you got deleted if reported...

No posts from fossala were deleted according to the moderator logs. Except people who delete their own posts, I only see some spam posts by ripster that have been deleted.

Hmmm, strange. I didn't think anything of it at the time, just rethought it when I saw the post yesterday and another one today go missing. Latest one being in a GH thread.
Wasn't accusing, was just curious.

Maybe the Demongolator took them?
