A couple of questions about this forum

[kurochka]

I have posted a new post in the main forums asking for business plan ideas for a digitization project. I spent some time thinking and writing the post. Now, it is gone and there is no trace of what happened, which leads me to the questions:

1. Are there some rules that I may have inadvertently violated?
2. Are the posts pre-moderated?
3. Are you notified automatically or otherwise when your posts are deleted?
4. Are there automatic "spam" filters deleting the posts (I had a phrase "from hobby to full time work" in the name of the thread).
5. Is there someone I could ask directly about what happened?
6. Are the forum owners/sponsors, etc. for some reason against such posts as mine?

Just want to get a handle on this, not to stir anything up. If this forum is not the place for my questions, I'd appreciate someone saying so and pointing me to the right place.

Wierd. Right after I posted it, it was there. A couple of hours later, it was gone and I could not even find it by searching my handle. Now I can see it too. So,please disregard this post, there are better things to read

If you click on "new posts" at the top of this page, it will give you some options.

One is "your posts" Clicking on that will show you all the posts you've made, starting with the most recent.......

Well, I did say, "questions" And I did not take a lot of time to think. Otherwise, I could have come up with more.
