why did the last 2 posts i made disappear?

In purgatory, I guess?

I made 2 posts, one yesterday and one this morning (after I found my first post to be non existent)about information concerning Rachel Collins. Both of those posts have been deleted. Does someone not want me to find Ms. Collins perhaps? Or are these just accidents?

They do appear to be in purgatory:

I'll admit I haven't run through this site's TOS with a fine-tooth comb but with Genealogy maybe there was a privacy issue the webmaster was concerned with? I'm totally guessing.

Maybe in the wrong forum and they got lost sideways on the way to the right one?

Webmaster's contact info is at the bottom of the page.

EDIT: Fixed mah link.

they may have moved them to different locations? i dont think they were deleted

They appear to be deleted.

What does purgatory mean in this context? Are they posts that break the rules?

yeah, i noticed other posts have been listed as in 'purgatory' and i'm baffled too...

You mean the only two posts you made, prior to this?

It's because they did not belong in the History & Genealogy forum, seemed a bit creepy, and provided too much personal information about someone who probably doesn't even use this web site.

"Purgatory" is a place where I, and any other moderators of this site, move threads to die. The threads aren't actually deleted. They just exist somewhere else that can't be viewed publicly.

I'm now moving this thread to General Discussion, because like your other posts, it does not belong in the History & Genealogy forum.
