Admin/mods can you advise why you have allowed a poster who had a thread deleted a couple of weeks ago due to 'privacy concerns' post the same thread again this weekend which has yet again been deleted due to again 'privacy concerns'?
Shouldn't the second thread have been taken down immediately as surely if the OP is concerned about her privacy the first time she will surely still be concerned two weeks later?
I just can't see the point! Posters have wasted their time offering advice the first time, and yet again posters have been allowed to waste their time again. It was obvious the second thread would get deleted.

Hi @mummyh2016 - could you report the thread please.
We're fine to take a look but we need a link and some background info first.

Hi again. There's not much we can say here without starting a thread about a thread.

However speaking generally, we don't take threads down lightly; we'll remove threads where there's a concern that a user may be identified in real life, if we think that it's a troll or a poster behaving badly badly, if there are a lot of guideline breaking posts, if it's overrun by trollhunting, or for other reasons.

We do try to keep threads by moderating individual posts rather than removing them entirely.

However, when there are privacy concerns - for example, posters new to the site may give out too much identifying information - we may take the whole thread down. Sometimes we encourage them to repost without including so much personal info.

As always, if you have concerns about a post or poster then please let us know by reporting. We're always fine to take a look.

Hi @mummyh2016 just dropping in to say that we'll treat each case individually, and always aim to keep threads by moderating individual posts rather than removing them entirely. Flowers
