Best deleted reason this week
Best "deleted for the following reason" of the week
NIG make you think of anything?
argh I just finished a fascinating, wholly up to date summary of the evidence about subliminal perception and whether it can change people's behavior (as in the controversial Clinton ad) when the THREAD GOT DELETED!!!!
Meh, suffer in your ignorance.

More tips & hints on a good post
Since I can't be an example to others, at least I can serve as a stark warning... [more inside]
My recent post was deleted and I'm going to bitch about it.
Deleted: It's obvious from the comments that almost no one read the linked sites. It's obvious that the mod that deleted my post didn't either. I didn't express an opinion within the post, but tried to objectively cite various viewpoints and facts. It was essentially a response to what is currently being reported on the major news outlets, pointing to several sites in connection to what is being reported in those broadcasts. I honestly have no opinion as to the cause of the fires, nor do I have any opinion regarding 'eco-terrorism', nor even on what George Carlin said. These ideas are being discussed on all news outlets.

Huh?
This post was deleted for the following reason: seen it. -- jessamyn
Huh?
Justice: Blind?
Are we deletion-worthy sure that this guy is blind based on an anonymous comment on another site? Especially after jourman2's examples showing a bad photographer is likely to blame for the image?
Quick Draw
I've never seen one of my posts deleted so quickly. You guys are good!

I don't think this takedown was appropriate. Just because the story was "resolved" with flickr doesn't mean that there's nothing to talk about, or that it isn't interesting.
deletion, why?!
Loudon Dreps: self-link, no. Friend-link, yes. Was this post deleted because it sucked, or because I know the guy? If both, I concede. If only because of association, is that transgression articulated somewhere? I couldn’t find it.
Hampster dance dupe deleted
"hampster dance" just got deleted. it did look (after 17 comments) as though it was about to spiral seriously out of control, but matt could have at least waited an hour or two.. ok, fine, i'll go read about the military coup in thailand.
OK, it was a link to a google search, but why delete??
Itchy trigger finger? I liked that post, and it seems like everyone else who posted did too -- no-one seemed to be snarking or complaining or asking for it to go. Sure, it's a link to a Google search, but an interesting one I hadn't thought of before. It was headed for a fun interweb memories thread... but then it was tragically taken from us. As an official Metafilter King, I would urge you to reconsider.
Bush sucks, deleted
What happened to the thread on the Presidential speech?..
Posted yesterday?
In an attempt to be a better MeFier, I have a question about this post
I cannot find anything remotely similar to this one posted yesterday or any other day...
Can you point me in the right direction..??

Where can I discuss this topic that was deleted?
Okey fine. Then where? Is there some place on the web where DrawBall is being discussed?
Tell us when TSA actually finds something...
Is there anything that makes this post good? (mi)
Totally, totally different
Is it just me, or does this no longer exist?
Is it just me, or does the thread that contained the link to the British doc about White Phosphorous and MK-77 being used in Iraq no longer exist?
os flame war
What's the deal with the title of this post? It doesn't look like it has anything to do with the thread. Is it an odd attempt at self-promotion of some sort?
This post is not the best of the web
Can we get a restart here?
GoDaddy thread deleted

double post
This comment is very unnecessary, distracting and long.
This comment is very unnecessary, distracting and long. It also has nothing to do with the posted links. Can it please be removed?
Hey, what happened to that lion FPP?

Newsfilter callout
The Final Nail. I haven't been reading as much lately---I'm am hoping that the election will be over soon so the excuses are gone for shitty posts. But, there it is.
A double post. It is a Newsfilter post, that isn't even news since it has been talked about for over a decade. It is clearly does not meet the stated standard. It is a classic troll: toss a turd that you *know* will incite much argument, for no apparent reason.. It is a single-link to a newspaper. It is a blatant amount of negative campaigning even while we try to encourage voting with a new link at the top of the page.
For the love of god, it is a self-Godwinizing post!
Matt posted the very next post, 30 minutes later, so there is no chance he didn't see the post.
Yet... it remains there on the blue.
It is the piece de resitance of the the shithole Matt has willingly allowed MeFi to become. I would say amazing if it wasn't so sad....

It was SO not a double!
I posted this entry that was deleted because "previously." The linked entry did not contain the same link and was marginally about the same subject. What gives?

Why was this deleted?
Uh... why was this deleted? I can only assume, thanks to Grangousier's sarcastic comment, that it was deemed to be a dupe of this, but if that is the reason, someone needs to look again. While the original post was commenting on the removal of Ellen's ad from Apple's site (it's since come back), there have been no other posts about Ellen's ad and Ellen herself.
Apart from anything else, ripping articles from the front page without informing the poster and telling them why is not a good way to encourage new users to post good links. It's just demoralizing.

Newsy pet-issue post.
Newsy pet-issue post. Goose or Gander?
This is definitely now how we do an update
Something really got your knickers in a knot? Well, then, don't just put it on the front page once. Wait one day and post an update. Note that in this case, the update's new information is a week old and was already posted in the original thread.
I haven't seen any double posts recently
Curious, as this is the only one I I've actually run across. It seems that double-posts have been very rare recently. Or have they just been getting caught that quickly?
"poof" unexpected, explanation demanded
What was the problem with the post about the soccer player giving the finger up? I was really surprised to see that one go "poof." It wasn't high art, but it didn't seem like it was out of line.
Double-post call-out bar raised.

What happened to our questions to Osama?
Okay... what happened to the painfully funny and popular thread from earlier today that had us offering our own questions to Osama?
I don't normally ask... I attribute any missing thread to a well-deserved deletion by Matt. But I can't imagine what about the thread would have warranted a deletion.

Why was my post deleted? (Tom Gutting, City Sun)
Yea I want to know why you guys deleted my post. Some people get away with posting porn sites but I can't post a controversial thread that Tom Gutting wrote in the Houston City Sun. Geez who woulda thought!
Bad day for double posts.
Bad day for double posts. I mean, I know the threads each has slightly different takes but were so many really needed?
