Deleted Posts?

[drokkon]

So instead of flooding a forum with posts, I'll often check to see if someone has the same problem as me. I found someone with the same problem, someone had offered to help them, and then I posted with "I have this problem too - does that offer extend to helping me?" With a few more details about my problem.

The next day, my post had been deleted. So I posted to the same thread again, saying pretty much the same thing. At that point I actually thought I'd screwed up with the first post.

Then today I received an e-mail notice that someone had replied. Excited, I went to the forum, only to find that my post had once again been deleted (I don't know how long ago) and the new post was just saying that the thread was being closed due to lack of activity.

A quick forum search asserts that there are no posts by me, so I KNOW I've been deleted - I'm not confusing threads or anything. Now I've since fixed my problem by formatting my computer, but is this how a forum should work?!? Did I do something wrong?!?

The procedure for posting in the Malware Removal forum is here:

• "BEFORE you POST"(READ this Procedure before Requesting Assistance)
  http://forums.spybot.info/showthread.php?t=288

It outlines scans that you must individually do before posting and also states:

• Please do NOT post in another member's topic, it will be removed...usually without comment.
