"deleted for breaking talk guidelines"

[ChangezNom]

MNHQ, I'm a bit unhappy that this has appeared after I asked for a very sensitive thread of mine to be deleted. It makes me look like a troll. That's not the case. I was feeling desperate for a few moments, needed to chat, and gave more away about my past than I was comfortable with. How is that 'breaking guidelines'?

Unless, of course, that was your error, in which case I apologise for taking offense.

Well, I've got to go now, so won't get your response until taomorrow, but I'd like you to know that this has really quite upset me. I was feeling very fragile - this has not helped.

Maybe it was the easiest way for MNHQ to delete
your thread.

I'm very embarrassed that a thread of mine was oncedeleted because I'd inadvertently used a disablist term. It's a widely-used word that only a couple of people on the thread recognised as once pertaining to a specific condition.

I was mortified that this was it's meaning. I apologised sincerely yet my thread was still taken down. I mean, technically it did break the talk guidelines, but I was extremely embarrassed nonetheless (and pissed that I'd said sorry and meant it, yet it was still removed).

Hi ChangezNom. We've already emailed you about this - and to apologise for our fat fingers.

We're quite sure no one would think you are a troll.

Thanks. The message came through a good half hour after posting this. Thank though.
