Aargh! The annoyance of going to look at a thread you've been on and enjoying and finding this message in its place. The worst part is not knowing or being able to work out why.

I was on a thread a day or two ago that I thought was pretty benign and inoffensive, so was mystified and disappointed to find it deleted and having broken guidelines. It must have taken a very bizarre turn!

AIBU to wish there was just a little explanation, literally one or two words as to what was done wrongly when the "broken guidelines" message appears, be it on a post or whole thread? Would help us not make the same mistake again, after all!

Hi @Lycanthropology oh yes, I've found it and it's not the thread @HopeMumsnet was referring to - not your fault this time, Hope! 😁

The OP had some pretty glaring inconsistencies in their posting history and were banned as a result. OBVIOUSLY this should have been noted in the deletion message and we're really sorry about that. Also take your point that the discussion was otherwise an interesting one and we could have let it run.
