I have posted 5 postings today before (6 with this one) and I was suddenly having 15004 postings instead of 15005. With this one, it should have been 15006. So which older posting of mine is missing now and why? You really want to turn this forum into a graveyard? |

Of all of the things that have been making the MAL forum experience worse in recent years, this might be that one that will actually kill it for me (if it continues to happen). I've completely lost interest in typing long, well though out replies that might or might not get deleted on a random mod's whim and without notice. I can't even fathom what would lead someone to subscribe to a website that stabs you in the back in such a manner. Very much a waste of time. |

@fleurbleue not entirely accurate. I prefer to stay as an observer in such cases. 😉 I wasn't talking about mere lip service that is usually being done in circle-jerking threads, I was talking about genuine appreciation and interest, and you can also add making a positive change to the list. Like what's the point of investing so much time and emotional energy in your postings when they either get deleted, people end up forgetting about you, people end up attacking you or don't really appreciate what you write or that you care(d)? A forum only really works well if there are people who care in a positive sense instead of having either only single responses without interaction or interactions based on people just writing with their gang/clique or interactions based on conflict. These three things are what can ruin the forums experience of a/n (formerly) active user. I remember the user you've mentioned, they were much more known than myself and even a former mod for some time. I also remember quite some other users with whom I used to write to and/or who used to be (more) active in the past. The point is that there are only very few people who try to at least behave welcoming and are people-orientated but even that doesn't guarantee any genuine friendship. The most I've got has or had been some "glorified penpal" as someone else in some other thread has put it. |

Noboru said: That's not much different than interacting with people in real life, though. You invest yourself into relationships and you sometimes have no way to know if they will last or not. They could turn on you. They could forget you eventually. But that's just how it goes. There are always going to be bad days. Anyway, if you engage with people expecting to build lifelong relationships, it’s only natural to feel disappointed when that doesn’t happen. I myself am around here only to have some dumb fun and change my mind a little, not really to create deep bonds. At the end of the day, we are still all strangers on the internet. But if I somehow still manage to build a decent friendship with anyone, I will take it.

It's not only the same users, there are new or other users that also post from time to time. What is rarer are users that focus on other people's responses rather than just responding to the same users all over again or only replying to a thread for their post count or because they've wanted to put out their response. Btw: I have nothing against your threads, those are just not the type I would like to participate myself P.S.: if you want to avoid the auto-quoted textbox above, you need to paste your whole response into a new reply box |

@Zarutaku: I've tried that as well, but it didn't work. I have to specifically search for "hdds now confirmed noboru site:myanimelist.net/forum" (without " ") to find my thread in the archived CE, though by now Google also finds it. And yes, it's become a bit more complicated for nested quotes, but you can just inspect the message under "More" and then use the mouseover for the "Quote Reply" feature to get the starting quote tag in front. Though it will auto-collapse after like three quotes so no fun quote trees since quite a long time. Alternatively, you can just use mentions to respond to someone @lucjan: Yes, some posts are actually a piece of art, but I'm having trouble finding a specific posting of mine where I've used the image align BBCode feature for a neat-looking posting. The rest may contain inspiring and thought-stimulating content. Oh wait, just found it.

I experienced this as well with this thread: Happy New Year & 2023 Wrap-Up! Proof: https://web.archive.org/web/20250413172436/https://myanimelist.net/forum/?topicid=2139248 (Surprised someone even managed to archive the thread but the archive is incomplete.) I know I posted in Feb, Mar and Apr. I remember having a conversation with @deg there as well but it's nowhere to be found. I could only find them in my e-mail. deg tagged me on Feb. 22 as per the e-mail notif and Wayback Machine but I responded to them after 2 or 3 months (the response wasn't archived on the Wayback Machine unfortunately). Anyways, my deleted post isn't that important but I don't really like them deleting posts... Thread Locked. I missed posting the 2024 Wrap-Up thread due to my poor personal health in December and January. Bumping this thread every time I post another announcement isn't going to change that :') I'm really happy that you look forward to these threads every year. This year just couldn't be helped. I hope to resume posting them next year. https://myanimelist.net/forum/?goto=post&topicid=2139248&id=72726900 The thread has been locked too. Haha. I wasn't spamming it; it just so happened that when I came back to the thread every month or so that I'm the only one posting and asking or was even interested in the stats (because I keep track of them in my blog). My posts where not even against the guidelines. I was just seriously wondering and trying to understand why they didn't update the site's stats for 2024. Now, I know what really happened after their super late response. At least I got a response. Well, the thread is now locked. LOL. So no stats for 2024. I really hope there'll be for 2025. --- Kwanthemaster said: Locking threads would certainly be preferable, as I agree that deleting things is nearly always bad. Same! If they were gonna lock the thread they could've at least not deleted the posts but some of it were about their past and new owners so I get why. Haha. P.S. I better archive this too. LOL.

@CC Fleur has a point. It's an awful practice, CC. You are deleting our digital footprint, our online legacy! I've put a lot of effort into some of these comments. I always do. :( |

@CC Well, this very thread would have stayed forgotten if you hadn't nuked threads? 🤨
Anyway, that doesn't answer my question! A locked thread has no choice but to fall into the abyss of obscurity… unless you're nuking threads that aren't locked?

fleurbleue said: A locked thread has no choice but to fall into the abyss of obscurity… Um, no...? wtf lol. People still refer to long locked threads even recently. Here is a great example: https://myanimelist.net/forum/?topicid=2099999 And NO this is not the ONLY one lmao. And this thread is not referred to only because of ishinashi, but due to the subject matter in the thread (discussions). This is a problem with a lot of locked threads (or deleted ones) and I can honestly see why someone would justify them deleted later. Personally tho, I'm not fond of deleting when locking seems enough. There's invaluable info sometimes along with "problems". fleurbleue said: What use is there in nuking entire threads when they are already locked and long forgotten, though? Do you not see the incredible contradiction in your statements? If it were forgotten, you wouldn't notice it being deleted D; CC said: Oh, but you have so many posts already... You could afford to lose, maybe like, one or two? I'm sure it's fine. That's such a heartless thing to say! Don't you know if his posts drop from 20,340 to 20,330 the users with 20,331 to 20,340 will start dunking on him for having less posts!?! Literally, 9/11 for MAL! |

@Shishio-kun Do you actually want threads to be deleted or something? 🤔 Or do you just want to be contrarian to whatever I say? Shishio-kun said: I didn't notice any thread deletion, I just saw posts disappearing from people's post counts. But if the deleted threads aren’t forgotten, I wouldn't mind if you could tell me which threads were deleted.Do you not see the incredible contradiction in your statements?

@fleurbleue @149597871 Hey, I didn't do it! I was making a guess at what happened! The rest of my post was just me teasing Zarutaku about his really big, massive post count. But yes, I meant threads that aren't locked, sorry for the confusion. It's usually rule violating threads that should've been deleted already (not locked/mods didn't see it) and then they get bumped and reported, even when they're years old. Edit: For added clarity, what I'm saying is locked threads don't get deleted. They're not supposed to be, anyway, but mods aren't a monolith and I can't tell you what they do when God isn't looking. 149597871 said: I've put a lot of effort into some of these comments.

@Zarutaku Oh, but you have so many posts already... You could afford to lose, maybe like, one or two? I'm sure it's fine.
You probably posted in threads several times that got nuked rather than your own posts being deleted outright, clearly you have to stay out of dangerous threads meant to seduce you into reducing your post count!

CC said: I disagree. Only harmful threads and postings/passages of postings should ever be deleted that is if they are like extremely hateful, contain too graphic or otherwise too disturbing materials, attempt to dox or defame users. Everything else can be just locked.But yes, I meant threads that aren't locked, sorry for the confusion. It's usually rule violating threads that should've been deleted already (not locked/mods didn't see it) and then they get bumped and reported, even when they're years old. CC said: I have mentioned an example here, would really like to know why the thread I've mentioned there has been deleted despite having been locked for months and despite not containing anything extremeFor added clarity, what I'm saying is locked threads don't get deleted. They're not supposed to be, anyway, but mods aren't a monolith and I can't tell you what they do when God isn't looking. I have a few questions about thread/posting deletions: 1) Can Community Mods see the logs of when a deletion has happened and by whom or only Admins? 2) Do you have to enter a comment/reason when someone decides to delete a thread or posting? 3) Is there a "soft-delete" mode in which threads or postings are hidden, but can be recovered after being reviewed? |
