How come some posts on here get wiped for no reason?

I'm quite new and obviously don't fully understand the workings of the forum.

Thanks for any clarity on this.

Got an example?

I was in the Griffiths thread on Thursday and my posts were gone by Friday morning.

Thanks

I take it there was a reason judging by your smiley?

Another question , I've noticed in the past that someone has quoted another poster on a thread but if I scroll up , the quoted person hasn't posted :wtf:
I have no examples of this as I just thought I was going mental but I've noticed it a few times.

I don't know as I can't see them.

What did you post?

If they've gone back and deleted their own post it doesn't remove the quote.

What you see may depend on which skin you're using, as you know from the other day :wink:

I said something like "calm down" to someone.

I received a reply from someone else saying "stand down you" or something similar

I replied "I don't understand"

And that was the end of it. :rolleyes:
