why are my posts disappearing??

[76chevy]

I had 42 the other day, now only 9??

What gives??

 

[jagee]

Were they short, "meaningless" posts?

Sometimes people get knocked down if it seems they are simply posting in an effort to increase the post count to get access to the classifieds.

Dupe.

don't miss?? Bigger target or get closer. Judo points work too to keep arrow out of the grass.

Your posts were acquired too quickly, so many of them were confiscated and redistributed to less fortunate members.

 

[76chevy]

HAHAHA

Most were answering a question or weighing in on an issue. Here is one for example regarding use of a .243 or .308 for coyote hunting:

243 handgun is very nice for coyote hunting....308 with the right load would work.

Dang... The only time my some of posts disappear is when I get banned.

Why is he special ?

 

[chezuki]

Fun fact... Reposting the posts you don't think should have been deleted here probably won't help your post count.

 

[Rookie]

Ask a mod. They'll be able to tell you what is going on.

And that is one that was not removed as it appears to be a reasonable post. Since no one else is laying it out for you, here is the deal. This is a gun owner community that has a classifieds area for contributing members, not a free classifieds site. One of the rules of INGO is that you effectively are on probation until you reach 50 posts. You are required to add only "quality" posts until that point. After that, things are more flexible. Apparently, your activities tripped their trigger.

It doesn't matter if you've been here for a number of years. Runners can be brand new to the site and post 50 quick/junk posts that add nothing or they can be long-term, low-post members who finally spot something they want and enter 40 junk posts. Same thing. You weren't running? I can't say as I didn't see the posts that were deleted, but if you press it, the moderators will be happy to quote your junk posts back to you.

If you aren't looking to get into the classifieds at this point, then just take some time to post more thoughtful answers or ask legitimate questions. It really isn't hard to get there if you participate. If you want to get to INGO's classifieds ASAP, there are two ways:

1. Create 50 "quality" posts. Ask and/or answer questions. Participate in discussions. Share your firearm photos. There are many ways to create quality posts, even if you aren't a firearms expert. Some try to bypass this requirement by creating 50 short, useless posts. This just pollutes the site and ends up wasting the time of hundreds of other members who have the misfortune to read them. The moderators are very aware of this tactic and will delete junk posts. Think of this as a probationary period where you learn about INGO and we will learn at least some about you via your contributions to its content.
2. Become a site supporter. For $20 (PayPal is fastest), you get a number of benefits, including early access to the classifieds. This provides an alternate way to contribute to INGO. Servers aren't free. If you do take this route, be sure to send a private message to Que asking for access.

Post Gnome and/or Ferrets.

 

[17 squirrel]

Was it a Armed Ferret ?

 

[churchmouse]

If you look next to the post name in your profile many have an OL next to them. Means One liners and they have been relegated to the trash.

Standard deal for under 50 posters.
