My news getting deleted... (Forums : Support : My news getting deleted...) Locked

Some of the news posts I keep making for our mod, #321, are getting deleted. I have no idea why, I read what I needed to do in order to get them accepted, and followed all of those rules. I've recieved no PMs telling me why these posts were deleted either.

The only thing I could think is it maybe being too long. But it just doesn't seem right. I've posted things just as long as these, and seen posts on the main page that were much longer than the ones I've made.

My image(s) were around 20k I think, and 256x188 nothing larger then I had ever posted and got accepted before.

It was relevent news...Multiple updates on our mod.

It definatly wasn't too short.

Had little or no spelling errors, and contained no invalid links.

I've sent stuff to be posted on the main page by mistake before and it got accepted, but it seems like whenever I do it intentionaly it gets deleted. Also, even if it doesn't get accepted for the main page, I don't think there is any reason to delete the post from our personal mod page.

All I want is an explanation...

Well that seems highly unreasonable. The Admins here have always been reasonable before, I don't see why that would change now...

admins never delete news posts unless they are completely un-newsworthy. They may be moved to your mod profile, but not deleted completely. Check that your mod team is 100% trustworthy, I find it very unlikely that it was an administrative action.

9 times out of 10 in those cases they are sent to your mod profile, make sure you check there.

It goes in our mod profile whether it gets accepted to the main page or not. The last 2 times I tried to post news on the front page, it didn't get accepted, AND it got deleted from our mod profile.

The posts were newsworthy, and our team is trustworthy. Usually I'm the only one who deals with the moddb related things anyway.
