Post removed - can a Mod please reach out?

I posted an album of an event (Wheels, Wings and Fashion), and in my opinion, there wasn't anything in the pictures to warrant removal.

Shots of cars, airplanes and our friends dressed nicely (in my opinion!). Can a moderator reach out, or can someone who's in the know provide color as to why it was removed?

I have emailed one moderator, though I know you all are busy...

For the record, I thought it was a great post. I went back to find it to ask what event it was and it was deleted.

Yeah, I saw it when you posted but it disappeared after. Was curious myself.

Thanks gents.

Only reason why I'm creating a post is here because I've reached out to mods in the past and have gotten crickets, so I'm hoping a thread can catch their attention.

Not meant to call them out - just an explanation of what rules were broken (I checked before posting a 2nd time and didn't see anything).

You didn't ask about waiting times, if you should trade one watch for another, complain about waiting list, or ask about if you should throw your watch out because you got a scratch. Therefore thread was deleted.

Missed it Jess

Always enjoy your posts and your pictures though ... you don’t strike me as a Shi* disturber

Hope you hear back from the mods, there must be a good reason

There were some great pictures in that post. Perhaps the machine gun offended someone or is against the rules.

Yeah, that was my thinking - so I created a 2nd post without that specific photo, and it was still taken down.

Definitely want to hear from the moderator as to what was so concerning about the post.

OP, it was a great post! Great pics as always thanks for sharing your experience at the event with the forum! I know I’m not the only one who appreciates your photography skills (and envious ).

Hopefully this doesn’t deter you from sharing again in the future

Your thread was removed because of the machine gun photo, as you know because when you reposted you mentioned it as the likely reason, thereby inevitably opening the way to a discussion about firearms. As the rules state, any post or thread mentioning certain things may be removed without notice and infraction points issued. In this case only the former option was applied. Case closed.

It was deleted once because you were basically offering it for sale through a third party, which is against the rules either inside or (in your case) outside the classifieds. The second time you posted it, without reference to it being for sale, it was left up, but no one was interested enough to comment. It's still there, where you posted it.
